00:00 I can't answer the question. The easy one, because his record has been exemplary this
00:05 season, would be Alonso. However, Alonso has only had one full season. He hasn't even had
00:11 a full season yet, has he? Because he took over Bayer Leverkusen at the end of last season.
00:15 I'm not sure if one season effectively would be enough for Liverpool to take a chance.
00:21 Tactically, I think Liverpool could find one or two, maybe three managers in the world
00:24 who are comfortable to be able to take this team and win games of football. But I think
00:30 the need for the Liverpool managers to be able to handle the size of this football club
00:35 off the field, Postologlu, he looks and sounds like the type of manager who could handle
00:42 what it takes to be a Liverpool manager. But likewise, he's only been in the Premier League
00:46 for a short period of time, although his managerial career has been much longer. So I think Liverpool
00:50 already know who they're going to go. I think before Jürgen even considered stepping down,
00:55 they would have had their eyes on two or three managers anyway. Ange might have been in that
01:00 equation. But I think someone like him possibly would be more in the lead than someone like
01:09 Alonso even.
