Negged for a double P*p

Negged for the mere hint of he who must not be spoken of 

[TD_LFC]

Can only succeed by spending all the money because then you don't have to do any coaching is a strange requirement.

 

Especially when it would have been one of the things in favour of Klopp's appointment.

I havent negged but saying "Pep" is like saying "Fergie". This needs to be stamped out.

Seems S though I’ve had a Pep talk.

 

Everyone else is using his middle name.

 

I guess it will have to be Josep or Sala from now on

This took me by such surprise that I haven't even got a song ready. @Section_31 - help a brother out.

Arne Slot’s the Sherriff

And Trent is Virgil’s deputy. 
 

 

that’s all I’ve got. 

[Le Duan]

Uh oh - his anagram is ‘lose rant’

[sir roger]

Keep hearing he is like Klopp, then I hear nobody has ever heard him swear or even say goddam, and I get the impression this cannot be said about Jurgen.

On a more unrelated note @cloggy how do we pronounce his second name if we are a hipster type?

Fucking hell. We've ended up with Ned Flanders.

I wouldn't worry about him not swearing, the way we are playing and being refereed,

Arne Slot, Liverpool,

We’re on the road to glory, 

He’s a bald Dutchman and nobody wanted Klopp to go and our first choice wasn’t available,

Now kids will have a story 

[sir roger]

If he wins his first two friendlies with us somebody on Twitter will reveal his dad slept on a luggage rack on the train to Rome in1977.

S-L-O-T...

He's not Jurgen Klopp

But, well, we'll see...

 

(I can't get past Todd Rundgren here, sorry.) 

 

 

[Bobby Hundreds]

His biggest task is to stop the team conceding the first goal regardless of how well they are playing.

Arne Slot will be Liverpool head coach, not manager

 

 

Dutchman will focus on coaching and preparing first team at the club while reporting to sporting director in move away from Jürgen Klopp model.

 

Like all the candidates Liverpool spoke to during their process of recruiting Jürgen Klopp’s successor, Slot is presently a head coach rather than a manager. The plan is for him to focus on coaching and preparing Liverpool’s first team while reporting to a sporting director, Richard Hughes, who will oversee recruitment and other aspects of the football department.

 

Above them both will sit Michael Edwards, the former Liverpool sporting director who returned to the club last month as chief executive of football. Liverpool believe the new structure is more appropriate to the complexities and demands of the modern game and that it will give the man in charge of their first team — the head coach — more support to do his job, not less.

 

Liverpool agreed a compensation deal worth up to £9.4million with Feyenoord for Slot on Friday and his appointment could be finalised in the next two or three days, with personal terms still to be agreed.

In their process of identifying Slot as the right person to succeed Klopp, who is departing at the end of the season, Liverpool took a data-led approach. The Dutchman stood out thanks to his intense and attacking style of play, his ability to develop talent and add value to signings, and his teams’ propensity to outperform their expected levels.

 

Another aspect that may have caught the eye of Edwards and his team is Feyenoord’s outstanding recent record of player availability. Slot’s connection with supporters and communication skills were also noted.

 

A close observer of Dutch football told The Sunday Times: “Arne has the best English of any Dutch manager who has ever tried coming to England and an incredible way of using his words.”

The move to the head coach model is significant in terms of Liverpool history. They have been a club with a tradition of dugout figures — the epitome being Bill Shankly — who shaped more than just their football teams while embodying the title of ‘manager’.

 

However, Slot is seen as a collective-minded character who is relaxed about authority and status, and will be enthused by the idea of being the leader of a team of coaches. Many clubs in the Premier League now use the head coach model.

 

Slot, who won the Eredivisie with Feyenoord in 2022-23, is expected to bring a number of staff with him from his present club. They will include his assistant Sipke Hulshoff, the head of performance Ruben Peeters and a key analyst, Etienne Reijnen, subject to work permits.

[Lee909]

Just about to post that, really sounds like Edwards is taking no chances that someone steals his power again

[SasaS]

How soon can Slot start?

[TD_LFC]

It's the same structure we had in the early days of Klopp.

 

Manager will be part of the process but won't need to spend time doing any leg work.
