KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum This is all getting a bit daft......

No manager out of the entire list of candidates will have enough with this squad to challenge, its a simple as that. If FSG didn't back Kenny, and ended up sacking him, then I have my doubts for a new manager coming in.

Whoever it is, they need to be backed to the hilt with funds to get the 2 or 3 world class players the squad needs. If not, then more of the same until FSG do.

I agree with the first post in this thread

It's only a poisoned chalice because of certain fans/groups of fans. There are those who will be opposed to our next manager and will make things difficult just because he "isn't kenny dalglish" - that's hardly his fault. And there are those who think they are more important than they actually are, and think they are answerable to (s.o.s). Neither example really have the club at heart.

The internet is full of sarcastic, bitter halfwits who won't accept that kenny was fired for taking us backwards and will hold that against our next manager. FSG told kenny that he needed to qualify for the CL-Kenny spent a huge amount of money to achieve his goal-Kenny failed. Accept it, move on, and don't let it affect your support for the club or the next manager or we'll be going round in circles.

Personally, I think AVB has nowhere near enough experience for LFC and at 34 I have serious reservations about him coping. I hear (from the media) that FSG want a 'young' manager.....I have no idea why/or what that means, to be honest. Of course they want to build for the future but that shouldn't rule out anyone around the 45 or 50 mark - they could still easily give us 10-15+ years service.

FFS please no to Martinez or any other mid-table manager. If it’s between AVB and Rafa, it’s Rafa for me. I will never forget the look on AVB's face when things were going wrong for his team on the field and he had no answers. His changes did not work and his tactics were non-existent. After a while the players just refused to play for him. RDM came on and went to tried and true methods that this aging team understood. Rebuilding would come later with personnel change. AVB's attempt to change the team was at this stage was just incompetent.

Guys, have a look at Dunk's latest piece if you haven't already. Something amiss with the way this managerial hunt is taking shape.
