Identikit Manager Poll

Okay this is just a bit of fun really, but there is a serious point behind it.

Something someone said, along the lines of Rafa having to be perfect in the transfer market in that ridiculous thread about the manager being somewhat culpable for our current mess, got me thinking.

What do you think the most important attributes or achievements are for the manager of LFC?

You can vote, hopefully if I have done this right, for multiple options.
The options are a bit crude and of course won't cover every aspect of management or personality, but I think I have covered most of the major things.

After voting, please name the manager/person who you think could fit this bill.

I've said for a long time we LFC supporters crave the perfect identikit manager, does he exist for you?

Poll to follow, I hope...

Bollocks, knew there's be something significant I'd forget.
You'll have to assume if we're doing well in the main competitions there's some tactical acumen involved!

Re: Identikit Manager Poll

If it is Manager of Liverpool Football Club then your right we look for perfection in a manager
I think we have had some special managers over the years and more than most compared to other teams have been in that Perfection bracket with Bill Bob and Kenny we had it GH almost got there but in the end fell short Rafa i believe will turn out to be another its unfortunate that he has arrived at our club at a time were it is in crisis but he has shown himselfe to be able to cope with it all

Re: Identikit Manager Poll

Win shit. Don't care about anything else. If Benitez went I'd want Capello.

Re: Identikit Manager Poll

Based on my votes I think the only choice is Kenny Dalglish, however I'm pushing that a bit as I want to be able to challenge for the CL (I'm allowing a bit of amnesty on that since he never got much of a chance).
Plus the fact he's not done anything for so many years now my suggestion is not exactly on firm ground.
Oh well, at least my 'ideal' candidate endorses our current manager, that will have to do.
