Delighted to see Firmino sign a new contract. Salah getting all the praise this season but Firmino has been fantastic also.

Liverpool assistant manager Zeljko Buvac has ended a 17-year coaching relationship with Jurgen Klopp in the week of the club's crucial Champions League semi-final against AS Roma.

Buvac, frequently described as "the brain" behind the pair's 'Gegenpressing' tactical approach, is understood to have left the club following a dispute with his long-term colleague.

According to club sources, Liverpool players were informed earlier on Sunday that the Bosnian-Serb was leaving Klopp's coaching staff. The decision to terminate a working relationship that began when the pair represented German club Mainz 05 in the 1990s comes during a season in which Klopp had come into conflict with Buvac.

Don't see any of the credible journalists reporting on this. Hopefully a load of oul bollocks

Maybe he's joining Stevie Me at the embarrassment at Rangers?

I'd say Stevie G would like the chance at management. Rangers are in a bad state at the moment but nothing a few big name signings wouldnt change. Gerrard would have ambitions beyond Glasgow and abit of success there could be used as an entry to the Premiership

What sort of success will he get there though? Seems a daft appointment which he'll regret very quickly, the media attention will get to him and the pressure of not being able to compete with Celtic and Aberdeen and possibly Hibs will only make the job harder..

Wright and Shearer both said it was the perfect job for hm last night, they obviously don't like him

[quit yo jibbajabba]

word on the street is that there'll be money made available for him to buy. be interestin to see if that happens..

[Insane Bolt]

Think he would be mad to take it, better off staying with Liverpool.

Yeah, numerous titles and some CL success in Scotland really landed Lennon a plum PL job. No one in England rates Scottish league success. He'll be getting his next job because he's Steven Gerrard and not because he was successful at Rangers.

Even if money is available, realistically how many players do they need to be able to compete with Celtic, I would imagine you would be talking 8,9 10?
Do they have that amount of money available? I doubt it.

They're about four games off Celtic and just back from the lower leagues - I think some of the suggestions about how far behind Celtic Rangers are is really fanciful stuff from people who just don't like Rangers.

To put that in perspective, Rangers Old Firm goal difference in past 2 seasons is minus 25.

Which is a few games a year and will likely change in Rangers direction again in the coming years if 100 years of history is any indication. People are setting themselves up for a fall if they think Rangers are far off winning a two horse race.

Best of luck to him if he goes. I hope he does very well there.

Rangers are in a mess financially, again. Unless there is someone willing to lose big money on them, they are hamstrung for the foreseeable. They have only survived the past two seasons due to soft loans from the boardroom, but not from King Funnily enough. Gerrard would be mad to take the job and if he does he has been ill advised or deceived. This year Celtic have cantered to the title, the gap is bigger than it appears. However, a good manager with a clear strategy and style could narrow that gap for rangers. They are more likely to go into administration again than win the title.
