BBC Radio Solent's Jordan Clark has given the lowdown on Liverpool's new management team under Andoni Iraola.
The club officially agreed deals with first-team coaches Tommy Elphick and Shaun Cooper this week, as the pair join assistant coach Pablo de la Torre in making the switch from Bournemouth.
On what to expect from their dynamic, Clark told BBC Radio Merseyside: "I'd put Tommy Elphick in the same bracket as Andoni Iraola in terms of being very calm and under control on the touchline.
"Occasionally you'll see him get a little heated but generally Pablo de la Torre, the fitness coach, is the one getting himself in trouble on the touchline with the officials.
"Shaun Cooper I guess when you look at him, everyone always talks to me about what a brilliant coach he is but also, he's heavily involved in the set-pieces as well. Many of the routines you see Bournemouth come up with sort of come through Shaun Cooper and the set-piece analyst.
"And what I know about Iraola is he is very hands-on. He takes charge of a lot the sessions himself on the training pitch – he's not a manager that steps back and lets his first-team coaches do it all.
"So I think they're there to assist and support him and form that link between manager and players in the dressing room."
