WestYorksRoyal Could De Zerbi be an alternative shout if Alonso doesn't come off for whatever reason?


I think there will be other candidates ahead of him to be honest, I can't see him being one too high on the list to replace Klopp. I haven't been all that impressed by Brighton this season either. Maybe slightly harsh given it's their first season in Europe and everything else I just think they've been a bit underwhelming in the league.

Yeah don't see De Zerbi being in contention tbh, I struggle to see Alonso getting it too.

I wonder if they'll look at Simeone at Atletico Madrid. He is a bit Klopp-esque in his approach in terms of a them and us philosophy and he is vastly experienced when it comes to terms a long term project. I think he is extremely secure at Atletico so it would be a tough ask to get him but he'd be my number 1 target if I were the Liverpool owner.

Simeone suits an underdog job, but his anti football wouldn't go down well at Liverpool.

Yeah I've always thought Simeone for a job like Liverpool, although I think there is a lot of attachment to the Atletico job as well (is/was he the highest paid manager in Europe at one stage?). I think he's very much honoured at AM and it might be tough to move him from there.

Alonso asked if he is off to Liverpool:

'Honestly, i don't have a direct answer. I'm happy here right now, that's for sure, and only thinking about Leverkusen'

Feels like a non denial to me :o

Can see him being on Sky a fair bit if he wanted to be, he'd be a good change of pace compared to Carragher, Keane and Neville.

He has said he wont manage another club in England - ever! However, is the England National team classed as a "club" :wink:

Plenty of Prem League Managers have won one title, in less games as well.

Please let it be Gerrard as new manager.
