He's been suggested in the Telegraph, along with S***** G******.

If it’s Gerrard, can we please remain from calling him Stevie G.

Diego Simone for me!!

He’d be in the top 1 if it was cage fighting


I have been banging on for a few years about how I think he is the best coach in the world.

Sky Sports understands that there’s no one lined up to take the job.

Here we go.  I’m sure we will have to go through the usual “in the know” and “my sources tell me” nonsense from idiots on Talksport, SKY and in the media over the coming days.

So we shouldn't go for Klopp, then?

Why the hell are Ralph Hassenhuttl's odds so low?

Because people are putting money on him and risk management software at the bookies is adjusting his price accordingly

The thought sends shivers down my spine. Also the thought of the day we play at the ‘famous Kop’

There has to be a reason so many are putting so much on him for his odds to tumble so much though. Maybe it is just that mention in the Telegraph. Don't get me wrong though, I don't think he'll be appointed in a million years.

Sky do have some sources at most clubs. They don't get everything right but will, at least, be working on the basis of what their informants have told them.

Talksport is pure bollocks designed to gain listeners by saying something controversial, regardless of whether they actually believe it. Expect a load of "experts" to be dragged out in the next few days explaining why Villa didn't deserve Smith or why [insert mediocre manager] would be mad to leave [insert irrelevant club] to join Villa. Sadly, lots of Villa fans will fall for it and phone in, as ever.

If it's true that we have nobody lined up then it's negligent by Purslow et al.

Gerrard - wants the Liverpool job in 3 years time. If it’s him then he will have fire in belly to ensure it’s successful or it ultimately will cost him his dream job down the line

Ralf H - experienced and could go on a gear with better ownership backing

Personally I think it’s between those 2

Well Vinnie, I hope you're not basing that on inside info because fuck me that's uninspiring. Would prefer Hasenhuttl because for God's sake can we just appoint someone for the job of coach based on them being a coach? If his name wasn't Steven Gerrard no way we'd be looking at the Rangers manager. No way.

Indeed. Not to mention I still haven't grown tired of the Demba Ba song.

Hold on. Why would you jump to any conclusions based on what Sky knows or as has been proven a million times what they don’t know?
