Mourinho can fuck off after that quote about never wanting to manage us. I hope the rest of his career turns to shit.

Mourinho is indeed a graceless cunt not fit to lace the boots of the King. He may have won a few titles with some uber rich clubs but he's just plain wrong for this club. Everything about him is anti-Liverpool - it's all pro-Mourinho, the egotistical tit.

Mourinho's greatest quality is good timing and picking very favourable circumstances to work in. I wonder where he'll go when Real and him part ways soon.
There are no easy options for him elsewhere.

There are two clubs in Manchester who'd be comparatively easy options.

I would still love to have Mourinho as our manager. The guy is a proven winner.
However, there is nothing I would love more than for us to get back to the top and start winning trophies with Kenny as our manager. Whether it is heart or head talking, I don't know and I don't care, but while there is still the chance of that happening I would stick with him.

That's the spirit Richey. What's football without a bit of heart and romance ? It's the faceless business that money has made it.

kenny.
I'm not sure jose would be able to turn around liverpool with limited resources.
I feel more of a connection with kenny and kenny will pick the type of football I want to see (bullshit reason but it's the truth).

I don't see Mourinho's next job being in Manchester. I would be very surprised indeed if he's the Mancs' next manager - whatever else you may think of him, he's nobody's fool and he'll know what a poisoned chalice that job will be for whoever follows Ginsoak, so I don't see him going for it at this stage, especially if his time at Real doesn't end well. His prospects at Citeh will depend largely on whether Mancini maintains their current improvement - if that does happen, I can't see the owners wanting to upset the apple-cart there.
What's left? Portugal maybe, but (a) Queiroz hasn't been there long and (b) presumably the Portuguese FA would therefore have to pay him off fairly handsomely if they do cut him loose this early. And a club which Mourinho admires and has badly wanted to manage in the past (incidentally he hasn't said he doesn't want to manage LFC even now, but that he wouldn't for unidentified reasons - well, we were saying only 24 hours ago that Babel wasn't leaving).
The criticism of Mourinho as someone who picks cushy numbers is overcooked IMO. He worked his way up in Portugal, had relatively little to work with at Porto but won the CL with them, and would have come to us (hardly a sinecure then any more than now) as his first preference after the Porto job. Keni also makes a good point about the effect on him if he were to come here, namely that he would do what would be required of him if that did happen, off the field as well as on it.
And so to the poll question. I think the owners are right to have appointed the King until the summer in the first instance, so I don't think now is really the time to make this decision. However, if you put a gun to my head and say I have to do so right this minute, I'd reflect on two things: one - the King is unlikely to be in the job for a shedload of years even if he does get the permanent appointment, and two - we don't know who might follow him a couple of years or so down the line. So (with a heavy heart, as I'd truly love Kenny to lift the Prem trophy) I vote Mourinho, a serial winner.

Though I *know* Kenny is a legend at Anfield I have to admit I wasn't jumping up and down with joy when he was announced as caretaker manager. (part of this is the death of football inside me) but seeing his reponse to the reporter at the airport and every single one of his interviews since allowed the dying football spirit in me to grow a little.
Even when we lost to Blackpool I wasn't overly bothered, I am happy to see the green shoots of recovery in our play, and that continued with the performance v Wolves.
Spion is right when he said in another thread its great to see another generation of LFC fans enjoy Kenny and be enthused by his love, passion and commitment to LFC something Jose will never ever have.
Kenny every time

Yes Mourinho is a proven winner but so is Kenny, Kenny also has 3 major advantages over Mourinho;
1. He is Liverpool through and through and unites the fans to such an extent that the connection between fans and the fans and the team is what it should be, Liverpool style support.
2. It isn't all about the man himself its about the club, a more stylish more graceful and respectful way of doing things generally.
3. He is not a complete cunt. ( this is not to be undervalued as an advantage)
I have very much softened in my opinion towards Mourinho, i truly hated the prick when he was at Chelsea but over time i have began too appreciate his humour and his considerable ability, however lets not get to thinking his teams play nice football because they don't and EVERY team he has managed has had big cash and he has spent it, i would have had a reasonable chance of managing that chelsea team to the league title and after that he walked into the best team in Italy.... He has not stopped whinging at Madrid even with all the amazing players at his disposal... he is a great manager Mourinho ambitious talented etc etc etc but he is not Liverpool material IMO.
Kenny wins.

Ooooo good question!
it was 'only' wolves but the weekend was a masterclass of pass and move (with several cloggers). kenny has achieved this after only a handful of games. I had my doubts because kenny has been out of the game for two decades but the man has lost nothing not least his desire, passion and unbridled joy when we win.

but that's mourinho's biggest drawback - he can never sit still and commit long-term, for one reason or another.
i voted kenny in the blink of an eye because mourinho's a slimy, vulgar wanker and kenny's fantastic. it's football: heart over head.

I'd ask myself this question. Would Kenny have his or the clubs interests at heart. It's the club - he's said as much. Would Mourinho have the same priorities ? He's all about how good he looks.

kenny has only added to his legend in my mind.
interview - '(paraphrashing) are you afraid you'll tarnish your reputation by taking on the job?'
kenny - 'I'd tarnish my reputation by not taking the job when the club need me after all the club has done for me and my family'
that is an awesome thing to say.

I don't agree with the bit about Mourinho. I think there's a good deal more to him than that, and he'd demonstrate it if we appointed him.
Having said that, as one of the earliest and strongest supporters of the idea of appointing Kenny this season I'll have a ticket to the royal love-in too.
