There's absolutely nothing to "not" like about that arrangement mate, it was the suggestions by some that he should come back to play or be offered a coaching role with the 1st team that people were against.
This role is what everyone would welcome, starting at the bottom whilst he gains his badges and the experience he'll need before being offered anything more senior.
He proved himself as a great player, he now needs to prove himself as a great coach.
I think the perfect place for him is working with Stevie Heighway, Heighway is steeped in Liverpool traditions and brought Stevie up alongside others like Carra, Owen, etc , Inglethorpe sought out Heighway to come back and oversee proceedings at the 'academy' or Youth Development Centre as he prefers to call it,
Working with Steve will give Stevie all the knowledge he needs to advance his post football career, and of course bring with it the continuity we had in our hey days, Shanks to Paisley to Fagan to Kenny, ...
It is of course up to Stevie himself, but I believe the chance to have a say in the future of Liverpool will prove too much of a pull for him to go elsewhere, he will without question be a fantastic influence on the young lads he will work with, this is another piece of the rebuilding. Another step in the right direction,
It's a no brainer, we are already in fantastic shape both on and off the pitch, from Klopp to the heroines with the teapots, the Youth development centre at Kirkby, and at Melwood of course,
I don't know about anyone else, but after yrs of uncertainty, yrs of struggle it seemed, we as a club are ticking all the right boxes, and it feels absolutely fanatastic being a Liverpool FC fan , all we are waiting for now is the silverware , the titles, to come trickling thru the door.
BOSS THA !!!
