Jurgen Klopp !

If your looking for an experienced top manager who knows what it takes to hit the ground running and can prize him away from his beloved Broussia Dortmund then look no further than Jurgen Klopp.

2011/12 Bundersleigh Chaampions and Cup Winners (Beat Bayern 5-2 in the final last Saturday)

As good as Dortmund are I think all the top managers and players want to play or manage in The Premiership or the Spanish Primera and if Jurgen is of the opinion that he would like to leave on a high then now might be the best time for him to leave Dortmund when his stock is sky high.

Andf the best thing about it all.........................? Dortmund's Club Anthem is "You'll Never Walk Alone !  :love:

Sean » Fri May 18, 2012 8:53 pm[/url]"]Just a thought on Guardiola.....I'm going against the grain here and think he'd struggle at Anfield.  He had the best players at his disposal at Barca and granted did a brilliant job.  Also, he was Barca born and bred.  At Liverpool he would face a completely different challenge trying to forge a winning team with the like of Spearing, Downing and Henderson.  Guardiola had a fantastic team put on a plate for him.  He has no experience of building a team.



Finally, one final alternative to throw into the mix......someone who has won the premiership and champions league and is itching for a return to England.....Jose Mourinho !!!!![/quote]


Guardiola ?

Mourinho ?

Wake up and smell the roses mate, they wouldn't come to Liverpool in a million years !  :Oo:

I know it's a forum and all opinion is valid but lets be reasonable here .........We aren't playing "Fantasy Football Manager"  :D 

P.S. Do you think Pep can bring his mate Messi with him ?  :;):

We beat Barce in a different season that we beat Madrid.

We also stuffed Inter in a different season as well.

We were solid defensively under Rafa but we also scored a lot of goals with both Gerrard and Torres having their best scoring seasons under Rafa plus also Croucg and Yossi had their best scoring seasons under Rafa. Twice we were the top scorers in the CL.


That's not the point Benny and you know it.

Under Benitez we had a decent half season where we played exceptional football and looked every part the team we should have had been for years. Off went the usual benitez reins and the team were actually allowed to play expressive attacking football that had been absent for the rest of Benitez's tenure.

I believed that he had turned a corner genuinely, but my hopes were dashed soon after and it was back to the same old, same old.

I have absolutely no reason to believe that if he came back that the situation would be any different.

No reason whatsoever.


The reigns came off because Rafa was in his last year of his contract. Once he signed a new 5 year deal, back came the "lets not lose" philosophy. Lets not also forget Rafa told the players they wouldn't get a new contract until he did. It amazes me how people tend to forget these things, and how many good players he let go, his stubbornness which cost us many matches, and how one dimensional we became. Putting all that aside, he was god !

I said earlier today in this very thread that I would be delighted if someone of the calibre of Laudrup was amongst the candidates  ...

Absolute legend of a player ,whose teams play proper passing football .

Other than Benitez this is the one name that's being mentioned that makes me excited , please get the man now  :buttrock

I'd happily trade scraping into 4th spot and hoping for a decent CL run for winning trophys...every single day of the week.




What a dilemna and perhaps the above illustrates all that is wrong with modern day football in that it's not WHETHER you win a trophy its WHICH trophy you win and the greatest trophy of all these days isn't a trophy at all (well not if you finish 2nd, 3rd or 4th).  ???

Yes ladies and gentleman roll up for the spectacle that is.......................finishing in a CL slot !  :oops:

Forget Flag Days at Wembley or Cardiff, biting your nails as they do the draw for the Cups, replays and penalty shootouts to see who goes into the pot for the next round, away days at Carlisle, Rotherham or Yeovil where the home end is half full of Reds, pitch invasions from over excited fans at the end of giant killing acts, John Motson's sheepskin coat on a cold January Saturday, ticket ballots, White van man trips to far flung places..................Forget all that cos it's consigned to history and a time when football meant something other than £30 million pieces of silver ........

Lets not forget though Ian, Shankly himself said the bread and butter of Liverpool Football Club is this as he nods towards the League Title.

Completly agree with Brian Reade thats why its a no no for Martinez for me.



The vast majority of Liverpudlians were shocked and saddened when the knife finally plunged into Kenny Dalglish’s back.

That includes the growing number of Anfield regulars who’d begun to worry if he was yesterday’s monarch.

But the minimum even Dalglish’s harshest critics expected was that his successor would be lined-up. And that his name would inspire.

If not, why sack a man who, after his first full year in the job, was probably a Wembley wonder-save away from an open-top bus tour with two trophies dangling over the side?

Instead, 24 hours after hearing they’d killed Kenny, news broke that Liverpool would be speaking to Roberto Martinez. Which felt like kicking Cameron Diaz out of bed for Susan Boyle.

Martinez may go on to become a great manager. But his CV so far reads “kept Wigan up, then kept Wigan up.”

Benitez or Laudrup are for me personally the only two names that could soften the blow of losing a legend like Dalglish .

This is why Martinez is a strong candidate not the ignorant phrase from Brian Reade...

Floyd stepped left and threw the hook that caught Hatton flush under the chin. Finally, the British champ had arrived in that mythical place of which his fans speak: Hatton Wonderland.
