[@ZyGoatee]

Pep Ljinders has played a MASSIVE part in our success under Jurgen. I sincerely hope he takes over as manager once Jurgen leaves. With all due respect to Stevie, of course.

[@NazSBG]

Stevie G is way off being ready to take the reigns. He needs to do a lot more learning but he has a great team behind him at villa.

[@ZyGoatee]

@@NazSBG Exactly. And Villa are a very good club. Let's see how he performs there with the resources at his disposal. It's also very important for him to build a playing style and identity. On the other hand, Klopp, Ljinders, Kraweitz and co. know exactly how to set up and play. Which is why Ljinders is the natural successor to Klopp.

[@NazSBG]

@@ZyGoatee I was surprised Stevie left Rangers. I thought he would have done well to stay for 3 or 4 more years, win another league title or two and some cups and then head back to England. But, he and his coaching team are doing a very good job at a sleeping giant in Villa. Linders is a good shout for the job once klopp leaves although the young coach, I believe he's at Bayern, and forget his name, is a possible successor. His playing style is similar I think.

[@ZyGoatee]

@@NazSBG I agree, he should've stayed with Rangers for 3-4 more seasons. I'd have actually liked him to stay with our academy and learn from Klopp and his staff for 2-3 seasons before branching out on his own. Then again, opportunities like Rangers and Villa don't come too often and the timing is very important for career decisions too, I guess.

[@isaresarchvarin1496]

“If it is not broken. Why fix it?” JK and co have laid a foundation for the club. That s why we are challenging for many trophies. When JK leaves, LFC need continuity. The last we need is to have a new manager come in and scrap all the work during the last 6 years.
