Andoni Iraola

I hope we get more of an insight, the video was rather short. There is a clip of him walking onto the pitch with a voice over.. I think there will be a good connection with the fans and more importantly the city, from what he says in the clip..

I am adding the LFC twitter account with lots of quotes and clips of Iraola from today's signing.

This is a very long but very detailed look at what to expect. It also appraises the Slotera and I think summarises where it was going wrong.

Thanks for setting up the new old forum, I'd be lost for liverpool news and chat without it.

Well

Having watched a bunch of admittedly positive analyses, consider me whelmed

I feel like a specifically defensively minded midfielder is needed, tho last Grav was incredible in that role so if he can replicate that form, we good

I'd love Wirtz to play as a number 10, but would mean Dom playing alongside Grav / new DM. Does that reduce his effectiveness?

If so, he plays as the 10 with Wirtz as LM, tho his pace is a concern

I think RB will be a priority unless Frimpong can play like Kerkez under Iraola; and of course our big money signing should be RW

But again, watching the overly positive 'is Iraola a good fit for Liverpool' videos makes me excited again

I think most people like the style of play that his Bournemouth side had the main questions are will it translate to Liverpool where opposition sides will setup differently, and will his methods work when you have 2 games a week and something like 60 games in a season?

I think that we need a big squad, as things stand we probably need to bring in about 5 players who are either going to be starters or at least regularly involved and you wouldn't be upset if they played in big games, but we probably also need a few squad players as we seriously lack numbers. For me I would be tempted to keep the outgoings to a minimum and see if he can get something out of players like Elliott and possibly Endo

We also need to make sure we focus on big athletic lads who are less brittle.
