Cody Gakpo has lifted the lid on the dressing room banter at Liverpool as Manchester United's turbulent search for a new manager continues to provide amusement for their arch-rivals.
The Dutch forward didn't hold back when discussing the ongoing speculation surrounding Erik ten Hag's potential successor at Old Trafford, with both Arne Slot and Ruben Amorim heavily linked to the position.

Managerial Merry-Go-Round Grips Premier League
The summer transfer window promises significant upheaval in the dugouts, with several top clubs expected to make changes. Manchester United's indecision has become a particular source of fascination throughout the football world.
Feyenoord's Arne Slot appeared to be the frontrunner before Sporting Lisbon's Ruben Amorim emerged as a surprise contender, creating confusion about United's actual intentions.
Gakpo's Insider Perspective
Having played under Slot during their time together at PSV Eindhoven, Gakpo offered unique insight into the managerial style that has attracted United's attention.
"He's a good coach," Gakpo said of his compatriot. "He plays good football and is a good human being. But I'm not the person who should judge if he's the right man for United."
The Liverpool star emphasised that while the speculation provides entertainment, his primary focus remains on finishing the season strongly under current boss Jürgen Klopp.
