Re: Discussion: Potential Pellegrini Replacements
For me I'd take Klopp over Pep at this moment,
our squad:
a) needs a rebuild and Pep is yet to prove that he is capable of rebuilding, whereas Klopp has spent 7 years at Dortmund so has had to rebuild.
B) is more suited to Klopp's style of play , a fast counter attacking style can be used, Navas can be used to more effect with him than Pep and another fast winger (like Reus) will really make that effective, with Pep's style of play we need a whole team that can keep the ball, at the moment we only got, Yaya, Silva and Nasri, Aguero and possibly Fernandinho who can keep the ball like Bayern do, it would take a lot of transfers to make us utilise Pep fully.
And C) I think it would be better to have a manager like Klopp to improve us and maybe get us to the QF or semis of the champs league every year,and give us a mentality that we deserve to be in that competition, once we do that we can get Pep and he can take us to the level of reaching finals, it's too much of a task to take us (who struggle to get out of our group) to winning the thing, we need a manager like Klopp (who has reached a final) to take us to the semis before we can then make the most of Pep, we need to do this in stages, we can't expect instant success.
Also I think Klopp would give the kick up the backside that the players need, I would say he's in the middle of Pellegrini and Mancini in terms of man management, he isn't to harsh on his players so much that they start sulking but won't let happen what's happening now, he also said that he wants to come to the premier league and looking at our rivals, they don't seem to be looking for a new manager so we might not have much competition.
Would be nice to see a bit of passion as well.
