Rawk is in dreamland with bootroom-esque mist over the return of Gerrard to the fold......

Re: Gerrard back as Academy Coach

Imagine being a young Dele Alli and knowing that if you move to the Liverpool Academy, you will get coached by Stevie everyday..

This could give us pulling power in the short term and 10 or 15 years later when Jurgen retires, Stevie steps in..

======================================================

Hahaha.....the naivety of them never ceases to amuse. As if ambitious greedy arse would wait 10-15 years. Memo to RS (duly noted by Herr Klopp)...he already has stepped in.

Amazing. By that logic, why not throw £300k a week at Pele and Maradona to put the cones out while you're at it?

Does he even have his coaching badges?

Will Slippy Gee be teaching this...?

I love how they are now saying, it's always been about top 4 this season. Lad I know was banging his teeth about if they are in the top 2 at Christmas they'll run away with it because that's was Klopp does.

Utter utter mutants! Delusion beyond the realms of possibility the massive scruffs!

Being a club legend is nowhere near enough to guarantee results - for every Dalglish Mk1 (plus great side) or George Graham there's a Shearer, Alan Ball or Bobby Charlton or a Souness and any number of failures at Man City - in fact the vast majority of great managers were rather ordinary footballers (or even in the case of the likes of CL winners like Benitez and Mourinho hardly a footballer at all).

What might distinguish a footballer on the pitch (and with Gerrard it's a moot point anyway whether he was anything more than a club legend) doesn't make a great manager (and if the Kopites want evidence - Shankly was decent, Paisley and Evans were gash, Souness was great player but a very ordinary manager, Benitez, Houllier, Hodgson and Rodgers nothing (or even less) as footballers, Klopp an ordinary footballer). So, let's see Mr No-Brains trying to get that extra 10% out of players who don't give as much as he thought he did for the RS.. and how he reacts when it doesn't happen.. it might work at the U23 level with lots of impressionable (and one supposes half-decent) kids but the PL will be a different ball game. He's going to be another Sound-as-a-Pound Aldo getting nasty with the failures - he'll lose the dressing room in 12 months and then what will happen to his RS Legend Status?

Doesn't look good for Ronald then !
One of the things that I find funny is, they seem to sing their version of our song more than they sing their own!

 

[dandydan]

they've only lost one game that they should have won, a slip up sure, but it doesn't mean they have all of a sudden been found out and we will catch them in a matter of weeks. A draw at old Trafford which they almost won is a very decent result and we didn't beat Swansea at home either so not sure we cant laugh too much!

Nah. Ill laugh every time they slip up no matter how crap we are.

[arch stanton]

weren't Moyes' figures similar to LVG's too..?

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

Of course we can laugh at them.

If they won the premiership and we were relegated I'd still be laughing at them because they aren't EVERTON lol

 

[Tin-Tin]

Getting a bit tetchy now that the club have released talks over a new deal for Coutinho to hide the lack if transfer activity. Then panicking that Coutinho may be off if they dont get CL football.

Dont they already have CL football next year as they won the league in October?

 

[macdog]

LVG's record also included silverware.

Are they assuming Gerrard will be a good manager because he's a club legend? That Klopp is Shankley and Steevie me is Paisley?

Despite some fine attributes as a player, tactics and team shape were never his strong point.

At best he'll end up as a Pulis or fat Sam with teams who are difficult to beat.

At worst he'll be the new Tim Sherwood.

More likely a Ryan giggs, always dreaming of the big job to stroke his massive ego, but unfortunately having a the personality of Violet Beuregarde crossed with Deputy Dawg to hamper his unrealistic dreams.


Plus he thick as a sponk milkshake
