    Has there been any talk of him managing us?

      In his book he said it was a dream of his after learning elsewhere with Carra or Alonso.

        I thought he was doing well with Rangers, they weren't challenging until he took over and he's getting some good results in Europe. Did something happen during the weekend?

          He's english which is something to take offence to these days plus he's deemed to be old school in style. Again not in vogue.

              It's probably just because he's got to a cup final, and if he'd won, it'd be a string to his bow in terms of winning something, and putting himself in the frame for the Liverpool job in the post-Klopp era in some people's eyes.

                His history with Liverpool means that he is always going to be linked with us whether there is any truth in the links or not, it's an easy story for the journalists.

                Hopefully Klopp is not going anywhere for years, but for me before he can even be considered he needs to demonstrate that he can build a side that can play the right kind of football, tactical awareness etc and get rangers to dominate Scottish football for a few years.
                The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

                  Its a bit more than that, Gerrard has himself talked how he'd love the job, and Klopp has also said he should be a manager of the club one day. It's not exactly lazy journalism, look at Lampard managing Chelsea... we're not talking fantasy here.

                  I'm not one for sentimentality but **** me i think Gerrard has more than earned the right to be talked about as a future manager one day. Yes, he'll have to prove he has the management smarts first and to be fair to him, that's exactly what he's working on.

                    If for whatever reason the job became available now Gerrard would be linked with it because of his history with the club. At this stage of his career I would really hope that is purely down to lazy journalism because at this point in his managerial career he hasn't earned the opportunity to be considered, IMO as an outsider, maybe the people in the club who saw him as a coach think differently. But for me he has to earn the opportunity based on what he does in management not because of what he did for us as a player, and at this point he hasn't done that, so for me any links that come up at this point are due to lazy journalism. Yes I am sure that he wants to manage us, but there are alot of other managers out there that probably want to too. If we ever appoint him as manager it has to be on merit and not based in sentimentality.

                      Is this fact?

                      Chris Sutton was blaming him on commentary (which means nothing - controversy is his default), when the throw in was 60+ yards away from where SG was standing.

                        Playing devil's advocate here but do you think Lampard earned his right with a season at Derby?

                        Whether you like it or not Gerrard will be favorite for the job once Klopp stands down. Which is likely to be in two years (end of contract).

                        Personally I would hope in that scenario Pep Lijnders would get it myself but Gerrard will be heavily linked to it as well.

                          Since you ask, I would say no I don't think Lampard's season at Derby earned him the Chelsea job, it was his history at the club combined with an OK record at Derby. I would try to look at it objectively by saying if someone with no previous link to Chelsea had that record at Derby would they have been likely to get the Chelsea job? And IMO the answer to that is a resounding no. Perhaps the transfer ban helped him because some other people didn't want it under those circumstances. He has the job now and is doing a decent job, fair play to him, but I honestly believe without his Chelsea links and based on his managerial record alone he wouldn't have stood a chance.

                            Bollocks, it has got nothing to do with him being English, its to do with him not having proved himself worthy to manage a club like Liverpool. Rangers with their money is going to be the only one challenging Celtic in Scotland no matter who is in charge. Legend of a player don’t mean he should get it easy to be the manager. We have had far too many mistakes in the past on this, why would we want the same to happen again?

                              Just curious but why? He didn't exactly light up the Dutch league with NEC as a manager did he?

                                He is a legend as an LFC player of course, but he has achieved nothing as a manager yet. He’d need to be doing something exceptional to get the LFC job whenever Klopp calls it a day (depresses me thinking about this). Look at Lampard after a solid start he is beginning to be found out and I’d suggest that is down to him being relatively inexperienced tactically. He might come good but give him 2 full transfer windows and zero trophies and see where he is next summer.

                                Stevie is doing a decent job at Rangers but with the resources available being closest team to Celtic is the absolute minimum.

                                They should have won on Sunday Morelos had a mare.
