    Stevie seems to be in denial. Alonso has played for Liverpool and Madrid. He has battled Bayern for the league. De Zerbi managed Sassuolo before Brighton and Napoli in 2010 was his biggest club as a player. Remember Potter? Noone even talks about Potter anymore. I remember when he was mentioned as the next big thing by the same panel. Heck Pochettino was pushed to Utd and Madrid every week by these guys when he was at Tottenham. Noone now considers Poch as elite. Stevie was his biggest fan at Tottenham. Would Stevie take Poch in June if he left Chelsea in May?

      Isn't good enough. Before he replaced Buvac as the main Assistant Manager, he had a brief but disastrous stint as a Manager in the 2nd division of Dutch football with club called NEC where he failed to get them to promoted to the Eredevisie. Hence why he came back to club in the first place. He needs to be tested again and seems like Ajax are really interested in him.

    As a Liverpool fan, I would give Lijnders a chance, especially with the slim manager pickings. Asking any manager to fill klop's shoes next season is ridiculous, but Klop did recommend him as his successor and you'd have to think he might have learned a few things under klop's leadership. I also think lijnders would be good for the dressing room and our young players.

Klopp I think is trying to warn the owners off De Zerbi by saying he would never play that style of football. If Brighton get something at Anfield tomorrow though that might make him favourite.

    Xabi alonso is clearly better than de zorbi. De zorbi isn't bad choice though, but xabi is better. Xabi would have been coming off from Bundesliga and possibly europa league. Now the experience of winning some trophies is definitely gonna help. I don't think de zerbi has won any trophy. Remember people were appreciating graham potter too before his chelsea move. But I think Liverpool are better than chelsea right now and de zerbi could succeed given enough time. Sad for xabi as it would have been better opportunity for him than leverkusen. He could have managed liverpool for 4-5 season and then gone to Real madrid. He would have more credibility by then. Let's see how many of the Leverkusen player remain at club next season because that is what gonna determine their performance next season.
