Klopp is not convincing and these are the coaches who could be coming to Liverpool

The support that manager Jürgen Klopp has from Liverpool and the fans is so strong that there has been no thought or mention of a sacking even though the team is not at its best footballing moment in a long time, causing any talk of a new manager at Anfield to dissolve at least for the next few years, as the German's brilliant mind will still be at the helm for another couple of seasons.

Not so long ago former Reds England midfielder Danny Murphy spoke to Fair Betting Site about the club and more specifically the throne in the dugout, claiming that the pair of club legends but rookies still in the coaching position, Steven Gerard and Xabi Alonso, are capable of filling the role that Klopp has held since the 2015-2016 season. "I think Steven Gerrard or Xabi Alonso could manage Liverpool, absolutely, yes."

Although the German manager's results to this point are worthy of putting him as one of Liverpool's most successful and winningest men in history, fiction in due course would not frown upon a former iconic footballer taking the reins on the pitch, as that romantic return to the people to whom he gave endless joy is the dream of many teams and one that some others find themselves living, such as with Xavi Hernandez and Barcelona or Mikel Arteta at Arsenal.

Although for Danny Murphy himself this option is not so convincing at the moment, the former Reds player spoke a little more about Steven Gerrard, a manager with a wider background and a greater knowledge of tactical strategies and tactical parries at the helm of Aston Villa today. "I think it's a great couple of seasons for Stevie at Villa to show his credentials, implement his style. It's been a bit up and down for him at Villa."

Gerrard and Alonso would make good managers for Liverpool

It is highly likely that neither of the two aforementioned former Liverpool players will see their appointment as the new manager of the Merseyside institution any time soon, not least because the vast majority of fans and senior management at the Reds do not want to see the departure of Jürgen Klopp in whom they have every confidence, including Murphy himself. "Liverpool will finish fourth, I think. About Klopp, he can't change his philosophy and his way of managing that has given him so much success overnight."
