Not necessarily, with Pep it’s all in minor details and he makes several tweaks in game and after it. That’s speaking outside of the general playstyle. Another manager might appreciate profiles and be okay with what we have but the reality is they will have to start from scratch, even if it’s not Klopp and the philosophy is similar. It would more or less have to be an entirely new system for the team to fully be on the same wavelength as the new manager.
We’ve seen what likes of Potter Pochettino have tried to do at Chelsea by attempting a modern play style with expensive players/profiles but that’s where you see doesn’t always turn out great, especially when the club adds players to the squad that you have to work with, instead of you asking the club for specific personnel.
That is my main reason for believing Pep’s future has had a huge impact on this summer window. All the new signings are for key areas and affect the potential next core of our squad. If Pep stays better he rebuilds it how he sees it, else another manager brings his own ideas and personnel to see how it works best.
