Do you think we'll hire one of these managers? If not, who?

[article=http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/next-liverpool-manager-candidates-5-6505519]Carlo Ancelotti

Managerial honours: Champions League (x3), UEFA Super Cup (x3), Club World Cup (x2), Intertoto Cup, Serie A, Coppa Italia, Supercoppa Italiana, Premier League, FA Cup, Community Shield, Ligue 1, Copa del Rey.

Odds: 6/4

The Italian is the current bookies' favourite, following a string of reports linking him with a move to Anfield. Although Liverpool have denied making an approach for the former Real Madrid boss, it is understood that they have sounded him out to gauge his interest.

The 56-year-old is now fit to return to work following a back operation and certainly has the pedigree that Reds fans would want. Ancelotti has proven himself in multiple leagues and multiple competitions. Whether you want a domestic league or the world's biggest international club competitions, Ancelotti's your man. Most importantly, he's also proven himself in England.

Negative: Would he take charge of a non-Champions League club?

Jurgen Klopp

Managerial honours: Bundesliga (x2), DFB Pokal, DFL Supercup (x3).

Odds: 2/1

Long-linked with a move to the Premier League, Klopp is fancied by the bookies and would be a favourite with the fans. His teams play fast-paced, attacking football, he beat Bayern Munich to the Bundesliga twice while at Dortmund and he seems keen on a move to Anfield. Klopp is both a realistic option and one capable of turning Liverpool's fortunes around.

Negative: Should his disastrous final season at Dortmund be a cause for concern?


Ronald Koeman

Managerial honours: Eredivisie (x3), KNVB Cup, Johan Cruyff Shield (x2), Portuguese Supercup, Copa del Rey.

Odds: 20/1

The outsider. It's easy to forget that Southampton were being tipped for relegation before Koeman arrived at St Mary's last season. Saints had sold off much of their best talent for a second consecutive summer yet he still guided them to a seventh-placed finish (the same as Rodgers managed in his first season at Liverpool).

Negative: This season hasn't started quite as smoothly, which may be a cause for concern.


Frank De Boer

Managerial honours: Eredivisie (x4), Johan Cruyff Shield.

Odds: 16/1

A popular choice among many fans, De Boer won almost everything in a playing career that saw him star for both Ajax and Barcelona. He's continued that winning streak in his managerial career, winning the Dutch league in all but one of his seasons since taking charge of Ajax.

Negative: His lack of Premier League experience (as a player or manager) could count against him.


Garry Monk

Managerial honours: None.

Odds: 8/1

Monk has seen his stock steadily rise since taking over from Michael Laudrup at Swansea. In his first full season in charge, Monk guided Swansea to an eighth-placed finish despite having to sell his star striker to Manchester City in January. The 36-year-old has also proven himself in the transfer market and has an excellent record against the Premier League's big teams.

Negative: Monk is still very inexperienced (he's the second youngest manager in the league) and hasn't won anything as a manager. [/article]
 
Didn't realise Koeman had won so much.

Going with Klopp, eventually we will get the next bright young manager

What were Shankly's managerial honours when we appointed him?

Maybe back then we had the sense to look at his managerial qualities rather than his honours. Like humble, hard-working and honest. Oh, and greatness.

Yet the board back then were widely criticised as lacking ambition and being happy to be a big fish in the little pond of Division Two. The Moores family were starting to get involved with the club and wanted to see it in Division One again. Does anyone on the current board have the football intelligence to make the right decision this time?
 
I feel someone like Carlo will get us back to where we need to be much quicker but wouldn't be upset with either Klopp or Carlo
 
Not sure about quicker necessarily, but I do think he's the best man for the job if we want to lay firm foundations for the future, and we certainly do.
 
It kinda depends on the timing, both Klopp and Ancelotti are available now, none of the others are. I like DeBoer and think hed be an excellent option but I cant see him walking out on Ajax 2 months into the season. That said if we wait until the end of the season I think its likely both Klopp and Ancelotti will have other offers that we may not be able to match. I wouldnt be at all surprised if two or three of Utd, City, Chelsea, Bayern and Juve were in the market for new managers this summer
 
[article]Reports in Italy claim former Inter Coach Walter Mazzarri has flown to England to meet Liverpool.

The Reds’ current manager Brendan Rodgers is under pressure after a poor start to the season, despite significant investment this summer.

According to Italia 24 News, Mazzarri took a Ryanair flight to Liverpool from Pisa airport at 10.10 this morning, with the website carrying a picture which appears to be Mazzarri in the depature lounge.

The site claims that the ex-Nerazzurri boss will meet with the hierarchy at Anfield, making him a serious candidate in the event of Rodgers’ departure.

The move would be good news for Inter, who are still paying Mazzarri after sacking him last year in favour of Roberto Mancini.

If he were to take over at Liverpool, the Beneamata would save a year’s payment on his salary of around €5m, with his contract having been due to expire in June next year.[/article]

De Boer is certainly a possibility but his poor record in European competitions would worry me a bit.

Hes not pulled up any trees in the CL but we would need to get back into it for that to be in an issue, hes won 4 titles on the bounce, never been done before in Dutch football, which is saying something considering some of the managers that have been there over the years. At the very least Id expect him to be the sort of manager who we are sounding out. Hes youngish, hes a winner, hes played and managed at the top level already and has a great track record of success

And we would easily be able to pay him more than he earns at Ajax
 
I was thinking like if we got Klopp we could probably get some of those sexy Dortmund players to come play for us.

Then lets sign the fucker.
Imagine getting the KHL back.

One of the posters I miss the most.

There are more bellends here than ever now. I don't think anybody would be picking on the KHL. Who was a great lad and happened to provide us with tons of info on up-and-comers from Denmark.
