Liverpool to give Kenny Dalglish new two-year deal?

[Yozza]

The sensible thing is of course to weigh up all the options. Kenny has done a very good job in difficult circumstances. But I'd also be very tempted to get Vilas Boas in. He looks like the outstanding young manager in world football. We'd be silly not to consider him.

I trust the owners will make the right decision anyway, they seem very level headed and are perhaps not as clouded by emotions as we are.

I would definately wait till the summer atleast, see who's available and where they want to manage, then put Kenny alongside them and compare, and decide.

Sentiment cannot be a factor in the decision either.

I think that's a sensible approach to it, unless there was a "superstar" manager available though and they're few and far between I'd expect Kenny to take the helm perhaps with the idea he'll move upstairs in a few years.

I think the main problem is the players, attitude, ability or whatever. They need a rocket up them, IMO alot of them are just going through the motions. I don't think it matters who we have as manager I think we need a major shake up of the first 11.

The difference in our play when Suarez is on the field is massive, we need more of the same.

Caroll and Suarez together is now on too, so we have that to come, but we need new blood in other areas, and it wants to be quality, no ****in about with ****e.

Of course attracting these players as we stand is hard, but there are good players out there that we can sign.

The impact of Suarez shows what can be done, but of course we know the opposition will be doing similar business, so bettering their signings will be difficult, but it feels like i'm seeing a good new team emerging under these new owners, just need to keep this level of quality signings (AD.Bodge.) going.

I think Comolli will have a massive say on who is our manager in September.

The mancs are skint, chavs and city are crippled by wages and will have sod all to spend when financial fairplay comes in, which all teams must start keeping an eye on now it's so close, Arsenal don't want to spend until they clear debts.

I think things could start looking pretty good in the next couple of seasons.

Us and Arsenal are potentially in the best position at the moment mid term. Long term we can't touch 'em but without a new stadium.

I'll probably get slaughtered for this but so what, I'm still not convinced that Kenny is the right man for the job long term. Don't get me wrong he has done great since he came in and done what only he could do and unite the club and there is definitely a place for him in the set up (Director of football strategy or similar).
If Mourinho becomes available I think Henry should go all out to get him, and with Steve Clarke already there its set up for him. Give Jose the brief to put the club back on top of Europe, whatever it takes.

I'd be VERY VERY surprised if Kenny wasnt the manager next season

i think that players arent good enough, not the manager (he's here only since january anyway)

[dww]

I'm still unconvinced that we would realistically attract a better option. I'm not sure that we can afford another pre-season of indecision either and I do think we have to have this issue closed quite quickly.
