Klopp has took them up the league to be fair and hasn't spent a kings ransom in the process. Granted he might not win our league but we'd all take top 4Hahaha.

We get a new manager now and go backwards, literally. Good first season and then out the window who cares attitude as we fall down the league. And we accept it as a club, second season syndrome except it isn't
It's not luck though mate, they approached him and he accepted, for whatever his wage is. Benitez went down with newcastle, managers want work.Liverpool where lucky though, cos most high profile coaches wouldn't have touched that job with a bargepole. Klopp is quite diifferent to many high profile coaches in that he doesn't do the obvious jobs. Ancelotti was a name mentioned when Rodgers was sacked too - and no way would he have taken it. It's tough to convince high profile managers who want to be in the CL every year. And the prem is the worst league for guarnteeing that with 6 teams always fighting of it looks like.
But the Bundesliga does have some good coaches - a couple of them out of work at the moment too, always suprises me really that so few German coaches do move to coach in UK.
Get what you are saying but it may be too late then.....love his work with the U 23s but its a huge step up from there to being a Prem manager. Can't help feeling that the board are just sitting on their hands hoping that this will just blow over, rather than actively sounding out a successor.Why? He's done really well. I'd have no issues with him getting it until Christmas at least. Can re-assess then.
What's the feeling amongst the Dortmund fans do you think he will make it to the top level?Guardiola is the coach he aspires too. He is a micro-manager, everything to the last detail, which can be as infuriating as it can be a good thing. He played a lot with a diamond at Mainz, at Dortmund he played quite a bit 4-1-4-1 with auba up top, and Weigl holding, and two men out wide. First season it went well mostly for the first 2/3 of the season so it was a very stable foramtion. And it wasnt till late in the season when things didn't go so well that he started changing it up.
2nd season he would change formations a lot as the season went on, he tinkered incessantly - often multiple changes during games, going 3 at the back quite a lot and Reus often playing off Aubameyang, then other times 4-3-3. It was kinda hard to keep up last season with what he was doing as it was never settled.
Nobody has yet explained to me why I as an EFC fan should "get behind" Tuchel or Ancelotti - the latter has always been associated with walking into clubs with loads of money and really good players...would he stomach a relegation battle? I am struggling to understand the Tuchel shouts..what exactly has he won or achieved. From Borussin's post earlier I don't think he is the guy to progress us.It's not luck though mate, they approached him and he accepted, for whatever his wage is.

It's about ambition , not desperation. Plenty of managers out there who would come here and improve us, and ones we can get behind, like tuchel, like ancelotti if we paid him enough, both examples. Point is you don't get if you don't ask, if Liverpool had never asked klopp then they wouldn't have got him
Below us in the league at present....no thanksEdward Howe please, no more false dawns with failing foreign managers, let's get a blue nose in who, with a bit of cash he never had at Bournemouth, can build a team.
(Plus he can stay after Brexit)

Ancelotti May not be a relegation battle manager no, I agree with you. But it's a manager who has been at the very top much like Benitez and is well respected and very successful. So a 11 with Brighton isn't going to be brushed aside like we are doing now.Nobody has yet explained to me why I as an EFC fan should "get behind" Tuchel or Ancelotti - the latter has always been associated with walking into clubs with loads of money and really good players...would he stomach a relegation battle?

Very true. If you look at Poch's record when saints took him a lot of people would've been against him.Ancelotti May not be a relegation battle manager no, I agree with you.

Tuchel is a fantastic young coach in the game. He is a gamble but you gamble with talent. Very much like potch at spurs, he could be fantastic for us, or he might not be. No guarantee with any manager in this game. Remember tuchel followed league winning klopp so the expectation was always going to be massive on him.
