Klopp wasn’t an up and coming manager when Liverpool signed him! He was a fully established manager with 2 bundesliga titles, champions league final etc

[@ajmoore2201]

Everyone has to start somewhere and was once an up and coming manager at some point. Sir Alex Ferguson was Aberdeen Manager before going to UTD

[@AntJay-kc7ps]

​@@ajmoore2201Alex Ferguson was a league winning and Cup winners cup winning manager which he won against Real Madrid he wasn't up and coming either

[@ajmoore2201]

@@AntJay-kc7ps Arne Slot is also a League winning, Cup winning and European Finalist. Certainly Not saying he's gonna be on the level of Alex Ferguson but this idea that a managerial appointment automatically has to be a fully established manager is just untrue. How would Ferguson not be classed as upcoming at that point? before Aberdeen he managed St Mirren

[@nonnayoubuzinnes1669]

Exactly

[@thabanesutu79]

I totally agree, we all have to start somewhere. What I’m saying is Klopp wasn’t up and coming when joined Liverpool. Xavi Alonso was up and coming coach when he joined Leverkusen from Sociedad B! He’s def not up and coming now. I’d say he is, since Mourinho at Porto and when Pep started at Barcelona, the next managerial protege since then.

[@Rotterdammm30]

Klopp won the biggest titles with good players. Salah at Roma wasn’t worldclass! Mane? Firmino? Henderson? Matip? Worldclass? Hell no! Klopp made them! And the youngsters like Trent or Robertson he elevated? Slot has a mountain to climb to get on the level of Klopp. No doubt.

[@michaelnewby2990]

The good thing for Arne Slot is that although the squad needs tweaking a little he is coming into the club in very different circumstances than Jurgen did..Jurgen had to completely rebuild the squad he inherited..So there is less pressure on Slot as far as i am concerned..But he needs this squad and a few new signings to stick together..Then who knows how successful Arne Slot will be..

[@10000liverpool]

Only thing i like about this guy so far is that he actually seems very passionate about being liverpools coach other than that im nervous

[@geams]

"Born 4 miles from the German border...". What does that have to do with anything? BTW, Klopp is from Stuttgart, over 350 miles from the Dutch border.

[@charliekelly892]

Slot is coming to a team with some of the best players in the world who have experience of winning trophies together. A lot different to what Klopp came into. I think many people will get a surprise after thinking Liverpool will crumble after Klopp leaving. I'm excited for a fresh start. Up the reds!

[@johnokereke2318]

I think so too

[@ashwinsaxena4734]

Only time will tell....

[@trishacardus9063]

We won't know but he at least deserves time

[@NavyaSagittarius]

To be very honest, I'm a bit underwhelmed as a Liverpool supporter. Yes I know someone in one of the top comments mentioned that Klopp didn't win anything before he came to Liverpool and but that is not completely true as he had won the Bundesliga (more prestigious than dutch league) and a cup. Plus, everyone already knew Klopp was top top manager who at the time I was surprised we were able to get. Don't get that vibe from Slot.

[@sherlockhomeless7138]

As a dutch football fan, I can tell you all dutch football watchers love Slot. He has been a Feyenoord coach for three years now, but in his first season he had a very shitty squad. He turned it into a very good team and they reached the conference league final. At that time Feyenoord was always low on money. For decades they had nothing to spend and always had to be creative to find some players that didn't suck. After that first year of Slot, Feyenoord was able to sell several players for a lot of money. After this, they could finally buy the players to really compete with PSV and Ajax. They became champions in Slot's second year. And this season they won the cup. And I think they even got more points in the league than when they became champion. Slot knows what he wants to see on the pitch and he gets it done.

[@NavyaSagittarius]

@@sherlockhomeless7138 That's reassuring to say the least. Thank you so much, means more to me to hear that than you might think.

Erik Ten Hag's biggest mistakes as Man United manager: 1) Replaced Ronaldo with Wout Weghorst 2) Lost 7-0 to Liverpool 3) Released De Gea and signed Onana when we should've signed a Center Back 4) Threw Jadon Sancho under the bus in favour of Antony when we needed the team to stick together 5) Signed Antony for 85M pounds, the worst signing in Man United history 6) Led United to their worst season in Premier League history and their worst ever champions League Campaign. Can anybody tell me why he deserves another year? (Don't tell me about the Carabao Cup).

[@abcdefg3214]

[@nonnayoubuzinnes1669]

I have zero enthusiasm for Slot. Klopp is loved as much for his personality as his management skills, he got us. The general impression I am getting here is Slot will need to make a very fast start because the void Klopp leaves is depressing.

Liverpool fans are one of if not the most supportive fan bases in the world for players and managers. And I'm not talking about social media "fans" I'm talking about us scousers and fans at the games and around the city etc. We will get behind him until we see a real reason not too

Piss poor reason for not wanting a manager. Kenny Dalglish and Alex Ferguson have been good friends since Kenny was an apprentice at Celtic 55 years ago, and Matt Busby became Man Utd manager after he retired from playing for Liverpool.
