KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum could gerrard return as player/coach ??

would it be a good idea for klopp to have gerrard available as a player for 6 months as a squad player as well as a possible coaching roll ???

Coach maybe player no

I think Klopp already said no to a playing role. But as a coach, sure.

I am not sure it is a good idea. Klopp is developing his team, his staff and his style. If we were five years into the Klopp era with a hatful of trophies and an established winning culture then I would say yes to Gerrard joining the backgroundoom staff. But hirng him now is too disruptive I think.

I don't see how it can be a bad thing if he returns. He was a massive inspiration and the last of our big players.

Stick him as a coach of the u19's or something.

I'd like to see him back at the club as a coach, but not in a playing capacity!

Let's be honest, we don't need him. I'm not adverse to him coming back in any capacity but I do have a problem paying someone to be at the club just for the sake of nostalgia.

Fk no, we have finally gotten over him and the void he left. Klopp is building a team and I would be against this big time as it will just bring distractions from the media and whatnot. The guy is 37, there is nothing he can do now that Henderson can't. Keep him away.

Some of the comments on here are sickening when you consider that if it was Alonso or Torres potentially coming back in either a coaching or playing the usual so-called supporters on here would be over the moon.

People just don't want to upset and interrupt the momentum we have under our terrific manager by bringing back a ghost from the past. Neither Alonso nor Torres would cause any where near the potential distraction that Gerrard would so would be the reason people might not be so bothered.

For me, he offers nothing in a playing capacity that we can't cover. If he wants to come and learn the ropes from a real manager then fine but I still think we could do without the potential distraction.
