Topic: LFC's next manager - chat and informed speculation

Song anyone?

This isn't Rotterdam or anywhere it's Liverpool not Rome, but everywhere that Arne goes he doesn't need a comb. Doesn't need a comb.

[Zlen]

Got his work cut out for him to be honest.

[KC7]

He will be looking at our vulnerable we are when teams break.

Endo is shockingly slow.

[RedDeadRejection]

He's fucked if this is going to be the squad next season.

[hide5seek]

All right, give the bloke a chance. Not even sat in his office yet.

[rossipersempre]

Delete that before rossi sees it.

Thanks but too late...

That, for me, could be the reason that we DON'T offer him the job.

Even if he is currently the #1 option, given how tight-lipped our club are, would the simple fact that he quite obviously can't keep his mouth shut about an ongoing negotiation make us think again?

If he can't give a simple "No comment" to that, then he proven himself to be indiscrete, which probably won't sit well with our directors.

I'm liking everything I hear of him as a coach, but yes this side of him is a big negative. He did end up sacked at AZ because of the way he went about his negotiations with Feyenoord.

Actually seen an interview in where he stated his dream club to manage would be Barcelona. If he were to explode and become an elite manager and Barca ever came calling, you would have to worry about him acting in the same manner. Imagine a similar interview with Kelly Cates in where you replace Barca with Liverpool in his message.

As long as we win big in the interim- no problem

[Kopenhagen]

Amorim: "Obviously my trip was a mistake, the timing was completely wrong, it didn't seem right at the time. It was wrong, especially when I'm so demanding with my players and always the first to say that each one's problems don't go away. They can overpower the team, I have already removed players from the squad for much less. It was my mistake, I have to accept it and live with it."

So he was trying to flush us out.

[DelTrotter]

It's mad Arne got more grief in this thread for saying he'd like the job than he got for his ridiculous antics.

[Samie]

He sounds like a chancer. 

[BCCC]

Whoever it is I don't care what formation he prefers I hope to fuck he knows how to sort out set piece defending. Oh and if possible come up with something clever in the opposite box.

[KC7]

If he was watching that today I think he'd have liked alot of what he saw.

Wonderful technicians (as Rodgers would say) throughout the team, but a real lack of athleticism in key positions (DM and upfront (bar Diaz)).

He's big on speed, so expect those areas to be addressed in the window.


It's a great job for the new guy to take on as the things to work on, and there isn't that much, are obvious.

[Agent99]

Does he play with a Kante, Mascherano type of DM? I hope to fuck he does and that's his first signing.

[kvarmeismydad]

A double pivot would be good. Bit sick of seeing a central midfielder going out wide as if it's some sort of tactical masterstroke while we then lose the midfield battle right in the centre.

[Guz-kop]

Something about the mentality of the players that's not quite right. It's all or nothing. We've had too many moments under klopp where we reach huge heights then fall off completely. Obviously the former is because of his insane ability to get the best out of players and squeeze out every last % of skill and energy. But how sustainable is it for players? Probably not very much. 3 seasons now where we've had long periods of just completely falling away. Covid season there were mitigating factors. It probably means we need better players who can  deal with the pressures of the success we crave without needing the manager to bring it out of them. I don't know. But the fact that we played so so well first half in the United game then so badly and have since then completely given up is really worrying. How can you have such fragile self belief that it disappears so quickly? Even though you know you're brilliant and capable. The whole thing is obviously mentally very exhausting for the players as much as the manager and this is something the new management team will have to really think about

[Keith Lard]

Come on Arnie. You can do better than this Klopp fella 😁

He hasn't even started yet and some of our supporters are already forensically analysing his every action.
Give it a rest, we have plenty other issues to worry about at the moment
