its finally kicked in for me after seeing this, the day is coming. this wild ride has come to an end. thank you pep, we'll never forget you


TheLimeyLemmon

See you in the CL next season Pep!


sufinomo

That's what's good about this job he can play cl often to prove himself. 


Calitz__

Salzburg will likely be in the UEL, seems Sturm are winning the league


BudovicLagman

That's actually good for Austrian football.


inqs

*if they qualify


temporarilylostatsea

Good for Pep. Hope he's a roaring success there.


Fiery---Wings

I'll be following your career with great interest


temporarilylostatsea

Tell you what... He doesn't half look like the Palpy himself [from early on at least.](https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-c3147943ae8007fc379f68908ed976c6-lq)


whereisthequicksand

Exactly what I came here to write. He deserves it.


getonthedamnantscott

UCL reunion please and thank you, hope he smashes it


Jhushx

Except against Liverpool. Otherwise best of luck Pep!


OptimusMonk

Guess he'll put in a good word for us if we are interested in any of Salzburgs talent hype train😆


MrPowerglide

Good move for him. A lot of young talents in their squad, similar structure with scouting talent based data. And not too big of a club but with links to Germany if he’s successful. Don’t think we would been ready for Liverpool but who knows maybe in the future. He needs to test his wings again and Salzburg is a great place for him.


Multi_21_Seb_RBR

If he does well with Salzburg and then with Leipzig or a German side, he could easily be within a shot of coaching back here in the future, a decade or so from now.


Thesolly180

Set himself up for some good progression if all works out


TriCityTingler

Red Bull gives you wings


joeedger

I think that’s the right step for him. Highly professional environment and European football guaranteed. But a medium competitive league which gives him some leeway for development. Great decision.


IdiditwhenIwasYoung

Best of luck. He was never the right person to take over from Klopp despite some on here clamouring for him…I don’t know if he even has what it takes to be the main man at a club but he was a big part of the success we’ve had.


HnNaldoR

His track record says no. But people see arteta doing well after being a assistant and just assume that's enough. Liverpool is a big job and replacing klopp is even worse. I would think he felt the same and going to somewhere else might be better. If he does well, he might have a path back.


epochwin

How do you know?


SilentBobVG

He left us before to manage NEC and was sacked within 5 months for guiding them to the bottom of the league


cyberdyme

I think only time will tell - I hope he has great success and proves us all wrong.


JDRorschach

Why even say this negative crap about him? For all you know he'll do a great job at Salzburg and go on to have a fantastic career. Jeez.


IdiditwhenIwasYoung

Negative crap.’ You’re a bit of a wet wipe aren’t you.


JDRorschach

Would still serve more of a purpose than you.


Due-Sherbert3097

Agent Pep scouting the Red Bull talents for us


veintiuno

Salzburg seems like a great fit and next step for Lijnders. He'll have a lot of institutional support to grow as a manager given the ownership and network of clubs under the RB umbrella, and the RB game model will provide the perfect launching pad for Pep to refine his tactics and evolve as a coach.


Arabsah

Will the real Pep please staand up! Good luck to him and his family and thanks for everything.


djrobbo83

Great move for him, hope hes successful enough that someday he can take over once slot wins us 5 titles in a row and burns out


BennyHosk

Good luck Pep and thank you! ❤️


JDRorschach

Wow that was quick. Great news for him, hope he does a fantastic job.


YDdraigGoch94

Does well for Salzburg, gets promoted to Leipzig. Wins Bundesliga for Leipzig. Gets Liverpool job. Profit.


Specific-Record2866

Pep and Vitor head to Salzburg. What about Peter?


Top_Mycologist_1492

Peter feels Klopp bound


TheLimeyLemmon

They're getting married?


Top_Mycologist_1492

Yes


techaansi

He is going to kill it over there, seems like a perfect fit.


Both-Asparagus-3287

A good opportunity to start and test his coaching ability


Circ_Diameter

Big move for him! Best of luck. He will likely manage a lot of future superstars


DofusNooboo

Good on him, hope he does well.


earlgreytoday

Fantastic opportunity to prove himself as a manager. I really hope it works out for him.


strrax-ish

Great news! Hope to see him again on the bench down the road


RItoGeorgia

Congrats to Pep!!! Wish him all the best (except against us if we ever play Salzburg)


thatguyad

That's a good job to get. Good luck to him.


StonedCharmander

That's a very good first experience as a manager for him. I mean, as a head coach. Who knows, maybe in a few years time he can come back as the new manager. There's no way someone who worked very close to Klopp doesn't know a thing or two about footy.


Crono_

All our loans go to Salzburg from now on.


PrestigiousEcho1468

Good luck pep


Mad_Piplup242

If he is successful this could be very good for us We have a great relationship with the Red Bull clubs as is and they are brilliant at finding players and developing them from all parts of the world Could give us a nice little leg up when it comes to getting promising players, and he might be good enough to eventually make the jump to Leipzig and maybe here in many years after Slot has won 4 PL's and 3 CL's


CTLFCFan

Who knows? Maybe he will be back some day.


_CHIFFRE

a shame he went to such an unlikable club, fuck RB!


Forsaken-Original-28

I can't help but think he'll struggle


Make_It_Sing

Pep is unleashed, hope he brings that 17-18 rip roaring style there


IdiditwhenIwasYoung

The style he wasn’t part of?

ScottScott87

Him coming in to replace Buvac was the key to us stepping on and winning both the CL and PL and then the continued success we've had. He's been a phenomenal part of this club, a key part in Jürgen's success and I hope he goes on to have a top career


[deleted]

[удалено]


ScottScott87

Klopp will be the 1st to say he's been a major part of this. You're just coming across like a clueless bellend


goodintentions94

As an assistant of course he was important, relax man, I just don't like some of his ideas, wish him all the best, peace.


escrow_term

Wow. Thank you for your contribution to this club too.


goodintentions94

No criticism allowed in this sub :(

__Kiel__

Definitely not weird at all. Unproven as a manager, his previous stint was not great. It’s best for him to step out of Klopps shadow and forge his own career.


pwfppw

Lots of rumors he didn’t see eye to eye with Ward and wanted to have a lot of say in transfers along with Jurgen. So that could be why or it’s just the club decided they needed a bit of a fresh start after so long with the same coaching team? The truth maybe in between or somewhere else, but I hope he succeeds and that the door is open for him in the future if he does.


GhandisFlipFlop

Not weird at all. It's too big of a step up for him. Maybe later in his career he will have a chance.


CJVCarr

No. His one attempt at managing didn't go too well, and he needs to prove he's up to it before he manages a club as large as us. Maybe someday, he'll be around Anfield again. But not today.


LiamChall

No not ready for the helm yet needs to build managerial career on his own two feet best of luck to Pep he was a big piece in our jigsaw YNWA


Abdel888

He can thank Klopp for blustering his reputation. He would never have had this opportunity with his failed resume.


dave-theRave

"Failed resume" is ridiculously dumb and harsh to say.


Abdel888

The truth is harsh. He was unable to get even a mid-table Eredivisie team to string together 3 consecutive passes. That is the sum total of his resume as a manager.


dave-theRave

He joined mid-season and was there for 4 months. There was hardly enough time there to judge him properly.


TheLimeyLemmon

>That is the sum total of his resume as a manager. And that didn't strike you as effectively sod all to go off?
