I know he's a scouse wanker but we need to be all over him. He's the real deal.

We won't get near him, he'll replace Ancelotti or Xavi. At this stage I'd stick with ETH just because the only alternative out there seems to be Potter, and feck that.
You need to be signing the next Spanish CDM manager, not waiting until Pep or Xabi Alonso have already made their move...
Indeed, just appoint Busquets now before he becomes a good manager.
I’d have no issue with us going for him. Sure he played for the scouse but it’s not like he’s a Liverpool legend or anything and he looks to be a quality manager. Can you imagine the fume if a former Liverpool player was the one to finally get us that elusive 21st league title?? Would be worth it for that alone. 
This is no acceptable way to talk about Bayern legend and future manager Xavi 'sexy beast' Alonso
Somewhere, Sir Matt Busby:"Come on blud?!?"
Yep. Him or McKenna. Nobody else is welcome.
Cesc Fabregas is just starting at Como in Italy..
And they've been the best side in serie B since he took over
Spanish deep lying midfielders taking over the management scene.
Isn't it also the case that several of these Spanish managers like emery and the Bournemouth manager all come from the same tiny town in Spain? They have a list on a recent talk of the devils podcast.
Lopetugui and Arteta were the other two

Great hair on all of them aswell!Arteta and Xabi Alonso grew up together.
Not the same town but all 4 are from the same province, Guipuzcoa (San Sebastian is the capital), which is actually quite small
Disturbing how Wenger was watching them already back then.Arteta and Xabi Alonso grew up together.
All Basque...
I’m sure Bayern and Madrid are all over him already. There’s no chance for us
Someone needs to photoshop Harry Redknapp in
Xabi is the one. Sadly, I doubt we'll get him.
Not that it might count for anything, since he's always been a very intelligent player, but he has played under Pep, Mourinho, Ancellotti and Rafa. All four of those are definitely managers he could have learned a lot from.
Bayern legend and you can't even spell his name correctly
. He's off to Madrid mate.The wumming standards on this site have really gone downMcKenna?
Obviously tongue in cheek, although i really did feck up his nameBayern legend and you can't even spell his name correctly
The worry is it isn't wumming
Wumception
I know he's dutch but we need to be all over him. He's the real deal.
Said someone about Ten Hag at some point before we got him.
Are you saying 'scouse wanker' is the equivalent of 'Dutch'? That seems slightly harsh on the Dutch.
Same language they speak.
Leverkusen are very impressive so far, problem is they need to keep this level up for 2nd half of the season, otherwise Bayern will win the League again.
Thanks Michael
Busby was the Liverpool captain and probably would've ended up a club legend had the war not broken out.
I couldn't give a feck if Alonso played for Pool. He was a great player and if he's a great manager, I'd take him.
He was never a cnut like Slippy G or Carragher.
Good to know I can call @KirkDuyt scouse from now on.
Yeah, quality coach. Get a proper structure in place, with a competent recruitment team and let's see what happens. Although I am in favour of seeing what ten Hag can do first of all.McKenna?
Sappenin laaaaaa
Add to the list Luis Aragones, Vicente Del Bosque and Rainald Denoueix.. Real Sociedad in season 2002-2003 were fantastic team, leaded by Alonso, Nihat and Kovacevic..they lost the league title to Real but were so close..
Yeah, I remember an article I read shortly after Xabi ended his playing career and took over Real Castilla suggesting that he would be the new coaching hit in Europe one day for the very reasons you have stated.
