Absolute Liverpool Legend Reveals He Wants Trophy-Winning German At Anfield

Jamie Carragher says he would prefer Liverpool to appoint a higher-profile manager, such as Thomas Tuchel, as Jurgen Klopp’s replacement

Jurgen Klopp is in his final few months as Liverpool boss and is now just looking to play out his last few games of the season after failing to keep pace in the Premier League title hunt.

There has been so much speculation over the past few weeks about who could replace the great German – but it now seems that Arne Slot is the man that will be replacing the LIVERPOOL Great.

Slot has impressed with the Dutch side. Slot guided the team to victory in the KNVB Cup final last weekend and also won the league title in 2022-23.

But writing in The Telegraph, former Liverpool defender Carragher has opened up and revealed that he would have much preferred that the Reds hired someone like Tuchel over Arne Slot.

He said: “I would have given more thorough consideration to a coach like Thomas Tuchel, who took on and beat Pep Guardiola in the ultimate test – a Champions League final.

“Tuchel followed Klopp at Mainz and Borussia Dortmund and did well. It has not worked out at Bayern Munich this season, but you only have to look at Carlo Ancelotti and Unai Emery to recognise how top coaches recover from setbacks.

“If another English club takes Tuchel, that would convince me they will significantly improve, but my sense is LIVERPOOL don’t want a coach with a reputation for being fractious.

“I would prefer a proven winner who could be difficult to manage, to a coach who might be easy to manage but still have everything to prove.

“My overriding concern is this: does Slot move to England ready to take on Guardiola for the Premier League and Champions League?”
