Xabi Alonso (Liverpool -> Real Madrid -> Bayern)

New Head Coach at Bayer Leverkusen.

I hope he does well.

Hopefully he has better success then big Sami when he was the manager there.

Decent job Leverkusen. Hopefully a future Liverpool manager in the making. I'm sure he can spot a good passer of the ball.

Sami's currently assistant manager for Teemu Tainio at FC Haka

Teemu Tainio is a name I haven't heard in ages (between his time in Premiership and MLS). Good for Sami managing is a tough gig with lots of turnover these days

Worth keeping an eye on Xabi's progress as a Head Coach.

Contract ends same time as Jürgen's.

Id take Xabi as our next manager in a heartbeart.

But I suspect our Pep maybe given a chance 1st. ??

Also on a list being watched as a future Head Coach at Real along with Arbeloa

Yeah Xabi brilliant midfield player, in his time, especially playing for the Reds. He proved very difficult to replace !

Yeah there’ll be a fight for him when the time comes.

Awesome job he does at Leverkusen. Would love to see him as Liverpool manger once Klopp decides to step down.

He is doing well at the moment - not sure if he will be the one to take over Klopp though

Widely rumoured to be Ancelotti's replacement at Madrid when Carlo decides to move on.

I'd have him ahead of Gerrard or current flavour of the month De Zerbi as the one I'd prefer to take over from Klopp.

How good is he doing at Leverkusen? Surely he'll be on the clubs radar when Jürgen decides to call it a day.

7 clear of Bayern who have a game in hand.

Seen a lot of stuff that’s saying he is earmarked to take over from Ancelotti

Liverpool V Leverkusen Europa Final on the cards?

No contest..Xabi is doing a fine job. Hard to think of a more highly regarded young manager in Europe. What a team he has put together on a limited budget including a full back on a free. I'm sure Xabi will be in our dug out some day.

I can imagine but we've been his stepping stone to Madrid in the past and we might be again.

Might be better him coaching there first so it's out of his system.

The thing I love about Jürgen is we are his destination and not his journey.

100%.

But as others have said Madrid might be his next job.

Take him in 10yrs when klopp retires. l o l

Very much so. Still hoping Jürgen extends beyond his current deal. Still 2 seasons after this so no rush to extend yet but I'd hope by this time next year he will have extended.

Potential signings will want to know klopp is staying ... so it's important. Fingers crossed.

But Xabi is doing a great job there. If he ends Bayerns run of titles what a feather in his cap that will be.

Potentially but we were never his first love and Madrid will be an easier job for him to step into

I can’t see him as our manager

Think someone like Franks will be earmarked next
