The next liverpool manager?

[Red Chilli]

I think Mike Newell would do a good job. He's done well at Luton on a limited budget and they played good football against us in the 3rd round last year.
He seems to be a man of integrity with the way he blew the whistle on bungs. Liverpool FC needs managers to act with integrity. He is also a passionate red despite having played for Everton.
At the moment, he would be my number 1 choice for an up and coming manager. Paul Jewell would be a close second in that category.
As for the best manager out there at the moment, I think it has to be Hiddink, but isn't he knocking on a bit now, would he have the time to rebuild?

Alan Pardew anyone?

[Charlie_B]

Pretty much any manager is a step down from Rafa, unless it's Mourinho, Capello, Hiddink, Wenger, et al.

As all those are highly improbable, just get Souness in and get it over with.

Oh, and I wouldn't mind too much if Mourinho managed us in the future. He is a very good manager, bring it on...

[Los Rojos]

Think Klinnsman lookslike he could be a great future manager, I would have to go for Lippi or hiddink at the moment;

Rafa will be here for 5 years though and reckon and i am sure by then one of newell/jewll/lee may well have proved themselves capable

Klinsmann lives in the US I think so he's never going to get into club management.

No way, the man has no class.

I'm hoping the next Liverpool manager is in school today, working hard to pass his GCSEs next summer.

GET TAE...

[kopdan]

Paul Stewart it is then

[Los Rojos]

Paul Stewart it is then

Stewie's a top bloke but he's not our next manager.

[Shaggy]

Bad hair.

If Rafa left tomorrow, Hiddink.

Otherwise, maybe Pako in a few years time ?

Or Gary Mac ?

Phil Thompson for me, i can't think of any other candidate with O'Neil probably not being available. Thompson knows the game inside out and gained valuable European knowledge under GED, and even though i would never want Rafa to leave i sometimes still miss the passion and emotion in the dug out that Phil showed.

Thommo eh?
I'd take Jewell before him personally.

No, I think he would just be like Souness. He would be a step backwards. he might have passion but he doesnt have the personal skills to manage people. he showed that with all the Fowler stuff. He just shouts.

Thats unfair. He doesn't JUST shout. He claps his hands while he's shouting
