00:00 It wasn't just a case of three months ago, let's go and find a manager. He would have
00:03 been on the radar years ago. They would have tracked him, made sure that he was the right
00:07 person, done all the background checks. And like Jurgen Klopp coming into the club, they
00:12 will get the right man. And I think this is the key thing. It will be the right manager
00:16 for Liverpool Football Club. It might upset one or two players. He might not fancy one
00:21 or two players. That's normal. But I think what we could see now, and again, I'm talking
00:26 about Pep having one year, maybe Pep retires after one year because Liverpool all of a
00:30 sudden go and win the title and look like they're going to have their own little dynasty.
00:33 But I think Slott will do very well performance-wise. And then, like Jurgen was encouraging yesterday,
00:40 Liverpool fans will have someone to cheer about, a new manager to cheer about. Klopp
00:46 will be put into the archives as one fantastic historic manager. But Slott has an opportunity
00:52 then just to build on Liverpool's legacy.
