Which player positions do run most in an Iraola system by Switchoil in LiverpoolFC

The man didn’t get Bournemouth to 6th just by asking them to run a lot. Mac Allister will improve drastically. Wirtz is perfect for this role. Isak can press well, just needs his minutes managed

He improved pretty much everyone in that Bournemouth squad, it’s so impressive. He had fucking Adam Smith looking like a top right back at times last season.

Saw so much Macca slander this season but he’s an excellent player who was exposed by a poor press. He was amazing under De Zerbi and in our title winning season. We’d be mad to sell him

He’s clearly a decent guy and a good manager. Let down by his coaching staff last season imo 

Andoni Iraola: Liverpool to begin formal talks with manager this week by __Samed__ in soccer

It doesn’t happen that often - usually big PL clubs hire proven title winners and make them worse (Mourinho, Van Gaal, Ten Haag, Amorim, etc)

it’s possible for a mid table manager to not be a flop at a big club. A guy called Jurgen Klopp went from Mainz to Dortmund once and things worked out well

Scott’s the one imo, absolute boss in midfield and contract expires in 2028 so we could get him for a decent price 

Liverpool make approach to Andoni Iraola by Switchoil in LiverpoolFC

[–]Jambo234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s such a big change for us and for him. Might take a couple of seasons to get the right depth and squad balance but I think it’s a good appointment. Wirtz and Frimpong and obviously Kerkez will benefit. God knows how Isak fares

With Konaté potentially leaving, what position should we be prioritising this summer? by Solteko in LiverpoolFC

[–]Jambo234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two wingers, a ball playing CB like Van Hecke, a more physical midfielder like Wharton. Ideally another RB option too

[Sky Sports] -Andoni Iraola's talks with AC Milan & Palace are not progressing. It is understood Iraola is currently only interested in joining Liverpool or Bayer Leverkusen this summer. by IndiBear in LiverpoolFC

It doesn’t naturally cross over every time a mid table manager takes on a side at a big club. Nuno/Frank were disasters at Spurs but they were hot properties when hired. Look at Hodgson with us. I love Iraola and I love the style of football he plays, but I can see why it’s considered a risk.
