Hi Ed02

Do you believe the new Liverpool manager will be one of Amorim or Nagelsmann?

Are there any other names we should be aware of that the club are looking at in your view?

Thank you
Hessle Red.

{Ed002's Note - I would not entirely rule out de Zerbi but there is serious interest from elsewhere. Amorim may take exception the way transfers are being planned at Liverpool.}

Hi Ed002. Exception to the way transfers are being planned meaning the recruitment process and how much power he would have with new players coming in or that they’re already being planned and he may know of who they want to come in and he wouldn’t necessarily want those players already identified?

{Ed002's Note - Yes, any new coach will look at the players at the club and look to make some changes to suit their needs - Amorim, as an example, plays a different formation.}

Happy Easter ed002! I hope the Easter Bunny was kind to you this morning ?
In what respect would Amorim take exception to the transfers?
Cheers
Drogie.

{Ed002's Note - Any new coach will want to be involved in the decision process surrounding players departing and players being added. Amorim plays with three CBs and would adopt that approach at Liverpool and that would require a change. Liverpool are still progressing with the Klopp, Fallows and Hunter targets that have been identified. This is always a consideration when taking on a new manager or head coach.}

Following on that topic ed2 as regards new contracts for players, and by that im thinking of trent, salah and vvd. big players who entering last year of contract, is lfc waiting on appointing new manager before starting talks with the players? Bascially to see if new manager wants them or not. Or are they proceeding regardless of new manager.

{Ed002's Note - They are not waiting on the appointment of a new manager before dealing with contracts. I still expect Salah to be replaced and depart in the summer. Alexander Arnold will likely stay regardless of interest in him. van Dijk will be 33 by the start of next season and there will need to be plans put in place to eventually replace him.
