I did say don't count your chickens with amorim. People are overestimating how coveted the job is right now.

Despite the info coming from agents they do seem to be right about young up and coming managers viewing the Liverpool job as a negative right now.

As big the Job is it is the structure that is the issue for Amorim.

The structure shouldn't be an issue. This is one of the biggest jobs in European football. If you're not up for that then feel free to stay where you are or go somewhere with lower ambitions.

@bee, what is it about the infrastructure precisely? I’d honestly love to hear what it is.

{Ed002's Note - I have explained his concern.}

Amorim wants some control over who we sign and not to work under the strict jurisdiction of Edwards and Hughes. Plus West ham are offering more in salary. The man is capable @Johnny and is better than the dross we are now interviweing as we speak.

Who are we interviewing, as we speak, Beekeeper?

TheBeekeeper, I watched a podcast about Amorim and what he is like as a manager and the Portuguese league specialist mentioned exactly that he wants and is fully hands on about what players come to the club. According to him, Amorim does not do compromises. He wants who he wants and will not waiver. Back then, I saw that as being a slight prob and apparently, it is.

To be fair Johnny, he’s perfectly entitled to want some level of input and control on the squad front. I’d read there was also disparity on the salary offer and what he’s asking for, again, he’s entitled to ask what he feels he’s worth. You’ve got to remember, he has no connection to the club and he knows he’s got lots of options so we’re not the only club he’ll get an offer from, consider that Bayern, Juventus, Barcelona, Man United, possibly Chelsea among others will all likely be looking for new managers in the summer. The fact we’ve spoken to no hopers like Kovac and Fonseca is very concerning though to say the least.

Wdw perhaps we are offering the new manager magic beans after all.

Apparently its about to be announced that we've signed a bumper contract with Adidas for our kit from 2025.

If announced Don't be surprised if we now offer peanuts with those beans.
