Question for Ed2. Enjoyed your analysis on Klopp. Sadly i agree with it. If we were to go out and get a new manager tommorow. who would you go after?

{Ed002's Note - As I have explained before Liverpool missed an opportunity with Jorge Jesus and another with Julen Lopetegui.}

Jorge Jesus would have been excellent. He plays brilliant attacking football and has a terrific track record in Portugal. But not a long term project.

Sorry what?

Craig and Maths are you advocating the sacking of Klopp? He hasn't yet finished a full season at the club and you want him sacked?

Ed2 was asked a question and he answered it, I have no problems there, but for 2 fans to be discussing a sacking.

A terrible loss last night and a terrible run of form we have been on, no doubt. But pining of managers we could have had is not only ridiculous and a waste of time but also damaging.

Let's stick together. Fans, players and manager.

If you can do it on a cold, wet night at belenenses, you can do it anywhere.

Agree Puzzled.

So tired of this manager out mentality. Poor bugger has got to win league within two years despite the fact the last won was before the premier league existed. Despite the fact the previous manager has blew a ton of money on moneyball all gambles. Despite not having a Gerrard, Suarez, Sterling or even a unbroken Sturridge. Yes he has had 3 windows although two are mid season ones when no one is available bar misfits or gambles. Had to clear out loads of average deadwood to free up wages first. Meanwhile your rivals are throwing money around on average players inflating the market, yet we almost went bust. I keep advocating that money is the only way to compete, otherwise who do you bring on after 60mins, more average players that would not get a look in at our rivals. But we haven't spent anything like our closest competitors in last two seasons much compared to the 300m plus by our Manc rivals. Even Leicester spent more than us. Why? Our commercial model is solid now, ninth highest earners in World football. I don't know why our back 4 is made up of 2 free transfers, good business I suppose, like selling Torres, Sterling and Suarez, all good business. As regards this summer who knows, all the guys we showed interest in that werenany good generally chose not to join us for some reason, just ask Sanchez, Costa, Willian, Eriksen, Mykitarian although one can say we dodged a bullet with Depay. So depressed and so desperate that I am happy to buy our way to the league with oil money.

{Ed025's Note - you have to forget all this microwave success you are craving BC, its all about building a side which will take time, slagging the manager and owners at every opportunity does not help, its time for liverpool supporters to do just that.. support, else the golden goose that is klopp may decide that his time could be used more productively elsewhere mate..

We are lucky to have him he's probably questioning why he took the job! We are a small average premier league side stop living in the past. Klopp could go to any top side in Europe and you want him gone? Pathetic. The spineless players are to blame.

The manger will also be reviewed by the club hirearchy at the end of the season just like every club. I am not sure what are the minimum demands he need to full fill set by the club owners. He has nothing to show virtually ( No trophies and goood chance of missing out from Top 4 )

Like the Boss says, Players and managers are transient employees. They come and go.

ED025. I love Klopp, read his autobiography and know and 100% understand it takes time. But when you read so many posts that are negative and niave it tends to rub off. As I get older and that distant memory of me standing on the kop remembering those glory times, I do crave a little bit of microwave success. Even though I live on the other side of the world typing at 3am in the morning about the club I support desperately, I've clothed the kids (who already get jibes from 9yo's), bought the merchandise and watched over priced preseason jollys. But if long standing fans like me are getting tired and jaded of this repetitive Liverpool nightmare then yes I do something's envy a little microwave success especially when so see what it has done to no marks like city and chelski.

{Ed025's Note - its not the liverpool way BC and thats without the fact that the reds are not that financially blessed, klopp will get it right im sure but he needs help from the board and the supporters mate, and if it does come to pass that liverpool win the title and a cup or two than wont that taste all the sweeter?..

The question was a hypothetical in response to ed2 breakdown of klopp. I never once said we should get rid. he's a nice guy. But a great manager he is not. Not a tactical genius or a game reader. he's heavy metal football. I like him but generally feel a true winner (like mourinho (not mourinho but like mourinho) would have been a better option for us.

Klopp may be having a rough time right now and he has taken ownership of that and needs our support, something BR knew absolutely nothing about as all of our failures was never his fault. Great manager, eh?

Klopp has only been here 18 months and cos he is struggling right now, they want him gone. BR was a 3.5 year failure YET many on here wanted him retained for the most pathetic of reasons. Well, I guess they were not humiliated enough after the 6-1 drubbing at Stoke in 2015, the worst away defeat for LFC since the war. I will NOT apologize for having a good memory and knowing how pathetically incompetent BR was, costing us the PL via his ego and arrogance.

His Trump-like, self-loathing and self-angrandizing comments in the media, all about. Klopp is a much better manager than BR ever hoped to be with the CV to prove it cos even I can win a trophy in the Celtic-owned SPL where even my mom can't screw that up. Having said that, NOBODY is getting evaluated in the summer except players and other staff. Klopp and his assistants will still be here this summer, he's not getting sacked so get over it.
