?? There's no rush. That's why I wouldn't be comfortable appointing KD full time on the back some very good results (which have been seperated by some very por results). We need a bit more time to see how well he's doing and to consider the long term options. If it's long term we're after, the man to take us forward needs to come in sooner rather than later as we can't afford to drop further and further behind the top 4 and not be competing in europe.

If there is no rush then stick with kenny. We all understand he is not a long term manager as he is 60 but giving him a one year deal and seeing how he does is the best possible solution for us right now. One year deal for kenny is very good and we will know what he can deliver. I think it would help us if we are out of Europe also because kenny seems to be very good domestically and knows the league very well. I'm not saying he's going to take the reigns for another 10 years but if he can impress with one season then we'll take it from there.

KD has done an okay job he has took the 6th best team in the league to 6th we have played good football 2/3 times. but he hasn't got a clue what to do in europe, yes he has stabilised the club and every lfc fan should thank him for that. but we have to move forward as a club we have stood still for far too long. i think Kd is to old to be considered a viable candidate for the job and his lack of knowledge of european football makes him all more wrong for us

The only trouble I have with Kenny being given the job is that he would be virtually un-sackable IF things went wrong. We need stability and that is what he is giving us but do we want to miss out on the possibility of the next best manager around?

Its a tricky one and I trust we will get the best out come for LFC either way.

The appointment of any other person but KD will derail the work everyone has done in the last few months.

We are slowly finding our feet and that is down to KD. He has brought back so much of what made this club great. We are still a sleeping giant and KD has given us one huge slap by making changes to the way we operate in the press, the backroom, the players and the academy.

we will be taking a huge step backwards if we appoint someone else.

And by the way i'm a huge AVB fan.

hopefully we make clear to villa boas that we want him we have faith in him and we want him to be manager for the next 20 years but but let him forfill his contract at porto

Villa does what to your arse? Being boa'd sounds painful

We are all talking about Kenny do this, Kenny did that...of course he is a Legend, and a fantastic person who helped us a lot in very difficult times - and all credit for him fro that!!! That is the reason why we all love him so much - he is TRUE RED and nothing ever will change that.

BUT....

Let's not forget about Steve Clark! For me - he is the man who helped Kenny a lot - and IMO - this duo deserved at least one year for challengeing in the league with full pre season prepparation. But like Dunk said in his editorial - FSG is really fired for Villas Boas - and I can't blame them - he is for me also the best candidate to be our next manager. When? That is the question...For me the best solution will be the pre contract with Villa Boas saying, that when he will want to leave Porto - he will tell us first - and we will make our mind - and contract with KD saying that when Villa Boas will be available - he will step up...I know that you will say - "that is slap in the face for Kenny"...but is it? I know (i wish to think that, maybe I'm a dreamer or just naive) that the only 3 people in Liverpool FC, who are here not for the money - are King Kenny, Jamie Carraghr and Steve G....If this is the true - and I asume they all want the best for our Club - then they should love to have a young, talented manager who have fresh ideas how to play football and can take us forward (and again - dont get me wrong - I belive Kenny with Steve Clark can take us forward also - but not for so long as Boas will)

Absolutely disgraceful if this happens. Nothing to do with Villas, this is about the treatment of King Kenny! Awful, awful to treat the man this way. He deserves the job now. Disgusted!

is KD bigger and more important than lfc? No! and no one is saying anything against KD we're just discussing weather he's the best man for the job long term.

your the type of fan that may end up holding this club back with sentimentality witch has no place when making a decision like this

My thoughts exactly. It is a small concern of mine that while the owners are finding their way in uk/european football they may end up listening to the fans for guidance in a bid to do the opposite of the previous regime. I think Kenny is PERFECT as caretaker manager for us, but to build for the future we need to look elsewhere - I hope FSG see it that way too and choose the best man for the job, and not the one which will please the majority of blinkered fans.
