wearethepeople1 3,897 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 If this does happen Could Graeme Souness be asked back in some sort of casual role to help and assist Gerrard in terms of teaching him about the club and how it works up here? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
esquire8 42,869 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Can only see him coming up if he's been promised a war chest by King and Park, mainly Park obviously. No chance he would take a chance by coming here to be given £5.45 and a poke of chips to buy players with. Also it won't be on the premise of a 'sell to buy' policy, players will be sold on the cheap or let go to make way for the new blood. If he had some sense he would be watching that Glasgow Cup Final and promoting a few of them to the first team. We need to buy and buy big or Gerrards' career here will go down like his predecessors.

You’ve the feeling that players will want to play for him. His U18s are 3rd, it's not just about wanting to play for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they have him at Ibrox at the weekend and parade him and let him just watch the game, meet the squad and give him the space to assess if anyone is worth keeping. Wits this about the changing the tactics and stuff? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote When speaking to BT Sport last April, Gerrard wasn’t shy about revealing the way he wanted his teams to play: “My teams will be physical. Fighting, winning, tackling. Going where it hurts, letting your lungs burns and really digging deep.” The Liverpool legend acknowledged that to make it at the top level he needed to be “obsessed” and he’s shown an eye for meticulous detail since taking over as the manager of Liverpool’s under-18 side. In a detailed piece analysing Gerrard’s start to life at the helm, This is Anfieldhighlighted a few tactical tweaks used by the side to showcase his flexibility as a manager. “One clear example of this (Gerrard’s tactical understanding of the game) came in October’s 4-1 win away to Maribor, fielding high defensive line to counter the Slovenians’ long-ball approach. And this was again shown in November’s 4-0 triumph at Sevilla, when Liverpool began with a high-intensity pressing game before sitting back and playing on the counter in order to frustrate an emotional opponent.” These aren’t just one-off changes, either. Gerrard has used a variety of different systems this season. He started the campaign switching between a 4-4-2 and a 4-2-3-1 but injuries forced him into using a 3-4-3 shape. It shows he’s not too stubborn to persist with a style if the players he has at his disposal don’t suit it. Many others in his situation just shoehorn players into unfamiliar roles and the team suffer because of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone heard anything similar or is it usual pish from people claiming to be ITK? I got that in a group chat too. Also said in the group chat that both Gerrard and Rogers hate each other and haven't spoke in 3-years. They both blame each other for Liverpool not winning the league that year. No idea what truth, if any, is in any of that the funds and the relationship with Rogers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackunion 536 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 PLG, ped, MW and ally all had previous experience as a manager or in ally’s case had sufficient experience as a number 2 under Walter for years and they all fucked it up. Especially PLG. He had a great CV as well as funds and preparation. I wasn’t convinced otherwise but I’m all for now as it’s within Liverpool best interest to help SG hit the ground running which can only be a good thing for us.

That's why even if the war chest rumours are true, a bad manager or inexperienced manager can spunk that - a big part of the reason we need a proper, experienced, capable manager is for us to get value from our budget - £25 or £25 million is irrelevent.
