who do you think should take over from houllier

I'd go to the brightest Brit around at this present moment, Martin O'Neill.
Next choices, you can find tactically astute Brits who has the right philosophy of how a club like Liverpool should play - take your pick - Harry Redknapp, Grodon Strachan.
David Moyes has done wonders for Everton considering the budget they have.
Houllier is good at instilling discipline and that's it. He can't possibly bring the title to Anfield. I think most of the comments on Houllier in this website are sopt on and I don't need to elaborate.

BRING ON KEV KEEGAN I THINK WE WOULD DEFINATLY SEE SOME GOOD ATTACKING FOOTBALL WITH HIM IN CHARGE(IF MY SPELLING IS cr#p ITS COS IVE HAD A FEW DRINKS TONIGHT) SORRY PEEPS

YEH, WELL SAID GAZ!.i DONE THE SAME LET'S PARTY.

i`ve already written a post along these lines today but i suppose this is the correct place to do so again.
i think martin o` neil is a excellent motivator and gets the best out of players but his achilles heel is the style of play he adopts. the direct style brings relative success quite quickly but at the higher levels the better sides have no problem in figuring you out.( as celtic found out in the uefa cup final).
its no coincidence all the most successfull sides have the ability to play attractive fluid football...... real madrid, man u, arsenal etc.
even in england apart from the george graham side of the late eighties/ early nineties no team playing the direct style has done anything of note historically in the championship
race, and even then they were far from being a dominant force in the game.                                                      the great liverpool sides,the united side of best, law and charlton, the everton sides of harvey, ball, kendal (school of science) and the everton of sheedy, stevens and reid, the great double winning spurs side of mackay and blanchflower, the leeds of giles, gray and bremner, the busby babes etc. these all have two notable things in common, they are remembered as great teams and they all played the game on the floor. in my opinion these two factors go hand in hand.
o neill relies on big target men like sutton, heskey and hartson to hold the ball up and try to win free kicks around the opposition box or bring other players into the game.
when was the last time a team playing this style won the champions league or world cup?
i know he`s had success in scotland but walter smith and graeme souness have more scottish titles than you can shake a stick at.
m.o.n is a excellent manager but he is not the man to take us back to were we belong amongst the elite of the game.
my vote goes to keegan and i`ve explained why on a earlier post.

LETS BRING "KING KENNY" BACK!! WHATS HE DOING NOW? NOTHING THATS WHAT. HE STILL ATTENDS GAMES AT ANFIELD SITS IN DIRECTORS BOX I,M SURE IF ASKED HE MIGHT CONSIDER COMING BACK IF ONLY IN A ADVISERY CAPACITY?

No more Frenchmen please ... Our team is breaming with bungling French-speaking players plus Monsieur Houllier. The only French I truly admire is Monsieur Wenger in London ... 

what about steve Mclaren i know he was No2 at the scum but he is a good manager.  NO way do we want kevin keegan he has no idea, sure you might see some attacking football but he is not a good manager remember England?

Del Bosque???

TOSHACK IS THE BEST MAN TO BRING IN, WE ARE LIVERPOOL FC AND ITS TIME WE THINK BIG

NO NO , its got to be Glenn Roeder  , quality act with a lovely little fringe

PI55 OFF CHEESEFAKERY YOU POFFY MAN U FAN

GH has clearly lost the plot.  His formation, tactics and substitutions are bizzare to say the least.  The players have now lost confidence in him and SG and MO will leave.

AS FANS IT IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE THIS KNOWN AT ANFIELD.

I would like to see a man with Liverpool connections and international experience at the highest level.

Step Forward John TOSHACK

Magret Thatcher or Kylie Minouge.

I preferr UBL over Saddam.
UBL is much more efficient in attack with the available resources. Hussein is all talk no action, just like GH.
Death to the Great Satan! MUFC that is....
