Kim Hellberg - Now’s the Time

I think he means Wagner, I think he was Klopps actual best man at his wedding 🤷‍♂️
Good record. Took Norwich job and got them to plauoff final then fired the next day after just 6 months in charge.

Took Huddersfield up and keot them up for one season

a feat regarded by bookmakers as improbable and described by The Guardian as "the Premier League's greatest survival story", with Wagner in particular noted as "a leader of rare charisma and intelligence."

No compensation to pay and Klopp as an advisor too maybe

Modric, Snoop, Klopp and Vagner. What could possibly go wrong. Oh yeah Hellberg!!!!!!!

For me the reson I was ok to turn the page on Sheehan was the total lack of priority given to our attacking play. Whle he was rearranging the defensive deckchairs to make us solid, we were literally bottom on every championship attacking metric. My eyeballs were bleeding at the lack of creativity and lack of will to change it.
It is generally accepted that 45 points (or thereabouts) avoids relegation - as Mrs J would say - think about that!
You need to draw EVERY game to be safe and go unbeaten.
You would think a coach would prioritise winning games - which relies on scoring goals.
Winning 1 in every 3 games gets you safe - even if you lose the other 2.
FFS - IF there is any single thing that I want from the new coach - it is the mentality that we go out to win EVERY game and score the required number of goals - even if we fail we need to be relentless in pursuit of 3 points.
I think this is exactly the right line of thought--and why I'm open to Hellberg. I don't give much of a shit about possession numbers, but his teams do take shots and score. We've been woeful at both since the season started with the exception of Vip.

I'm willing to chance anyone who will up our attempt numbers, be it Hellberg, Carrick, or whoever. What stands out to me about Hellberg is ambition, and that should at least have him managing to win rather than draw.
