It feels a bit like there are no really obvious candidates for a new manager. Not just from a Liverpool perspective, but if any other big club was looking for a new manager.

Even Alonso - despite his sensational season in Germany - is very early in his managerial career with limited experience.

Big names of a few years ago like Pochettino and Tuchel seem to have suffered damage to their reputations. Mourinho is yesterday's man. The wave of English players ending their playing careers and moving into management has slowed down (and none of them have had success) .

I know it's very data and analytics driven these days and that's different to the traditional approach of getting the biggest name with the best track record but there just doesn't seem to be so many all-time-great/ legend type of managers out there anymore. Maybe Ancelloti is the last of that generation still standing.

Zidane is out there. His track record is incredible because of those consecutive European Cup wins but I feel like it's hard to really judge him.

Klopp and Guardiola are the big silver-back gorillas of the last decade. Obviously neither is an option.

Who else is out there? I still rate Tuchel actually. There was a time when I saw him as a possible Klopp successor.

That's a better performance. players were faster on the ball, more aggressive, determined . that's why we moan about the team when we play like we have lately, because we know we can play like today.

Slightly better half but not by much. Trent is pure class, and we have missed him as good as Bradley has been. If the Liverpool game isn't doing it for you watching United blow a 3-0 lead when there was just 19 minuets left against Coventry is rather amusing . 96th minuet equaliser for Coventry, fair play to them.

The defending we've seen all year has been masked by our 3-1 turn arounds.

Its literally hilarious how bad we can be in midfield and at the back, teams like fulham are able to generate such easy chances. I'ts insanity how it keeps happening each week.

What’s with this possession style slow build up? It’s like the players struggle to understand it and create chances. It’s almost impossible to watch.

I'm disappointed like everyone else how the season looks like ending.
But I'm determined to enjoy the last few weeks of Jurgen, I'm so proud of how far we have come in the last 9 years and everyone of my friends who support other teams have always said I wish we could have him as our coach.

City look tired you ask me and may struggle to keep any kind of pace up in their remaining games. Arsenal are always good for a shock result, so potentially we could still win the league. HOWEVER, not playing this dull boring Lijndersball we are stuck on. JK needs to say, let's go back to heavy metal football. Pick the players who are fittest in their position and run run run till the wheels fall off. As if at the end of the season City and Arsenal have dropped points in a couple of their games and we have had 6 games with 3 goals in them as we are playing this awful slow football we will not be having a happy end of season party. Wake up JK, let's have the good old heavy metal back for the last 6 games!

Personally I think Arne Slot will be our new Manager, and I'd be happy with Him over Amorim, anyone else?
