I backed him as soon as the odds came out for the same reasons @Kid in the Riot makes in the OP. Personally I would be 6.5 / 7 out of 10 happy with this appointment if it were to happen, although it wouldn't be the glamourous "proven Championship manager" or exciting big-name high profile yound manager there is some basis of a track record to look back on. I don't get the argument about a track record at Championship level, surely a managers ability to get the best out of his resources and set a team up tactically to play to their stregths are universal regardless of which league you are in?

What would Pele and Zidane know about football........ https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/liverpool/4984191/Liverpools-Steven-Gerrard-hailed-as-worlds-best-player-by-Zinedine-Zidane.html https://www.skysports.com/football/news/12016/2379622/pele-gerrards-the-best Or Morelos as his Number 9

All the players you've named are obviously great talents with differing attributes that various football fans will find more pleasing on the eye than others. For me Gerrard played in the worst teams than any of the above names and without him Liverpool would have been worse than average. His passing range, tackling, goals from all areas and inspirational leadership are the reasons why I would go for him. On a forum of this size there will never be a consensus on this subject though
-
In my view he is the best player of the premier league era
-
Sure he would jump at the chance to swap working with Eden Hazard and Kevin De Bruyne with Marley Watkins
-
The question is why is someone placing money on a left-field choice like Ryan Lowe without knowing something, within the first half an hour the two favourites were Hughton and Robins which have been spoken about on this forum over the last couple of weeks and therefore made logical sense as people would have been betting on this basis.
-
Think it would be generally seen as SL taking another cheap option rather than the proven manager that the majority of our supporters would hope to see.
-
Understand thats how betting markets move but to move his price by that much would still take a fair wedge and on someone that wouldn't even be in the thoughts of the general fanbase i.e. somebody may know something. WOuld be very underwhelming though and on the face of it is it any different to what we had?
-
Ryan Lowe now 5/1, very random guy for their money to be flooding in on?
-
Did suggest him on another thread, if this has happened because someone's lined up then he could be in the frame as would know Kalas, Dasilva and Palmer so contact could have been made through them?
-
WHat's Beckham up to? Doesn't live too far away....
-
SL won't want to go down that route again, very rarely works out.
-
John Terry anyone? Would know the Chelsea boys already and would be well on with Lampard for the pick of their next crop. Could be keen on being the manager rather than an assistant?
-
Hughton no 6/4 favourite, odds are very live though and obviously subject to money coming in
-
Gone - Lee Johnson relieved of his job. 100% Official

I think SL was loyal before and arguably that was repaid / justified but this time it felt different given the strength in squad available and the performance levels. Very sad and similar feeling to when Danny WIlson left for me in terms of really wanting someone to suceed.
