S-Clarke Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 I imagine someone had got hold of the news, he'd already informed Liverpool back in November so they'd done well to keep it quiet for this long. Best to announce something like that on your terms than have it leaked via Murdoch. End of an era for Liverpool, not quite sure where they go from here. Their 'stars' (Salah, VVD, Robertson, Alison etc) are getting older and their squad as a whole is as weak as it's been for a long time imo - they're only up there as the league is pretty poor overall this year. There is talk of Xabi Alonso going there, but I can see that ending in tears. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Glad I caught this here, before all football sites and sports media close down for a week of mourning. I was going to wonder if the announcement might have any bearing in their form. But I couldn't care less really. If the owners are looking for someone to deliver outside expectations on a lower budget, we know of someone who is pound for pound the best at that. And available!

The loan ranger ran for 5 series, the exact same number major trophies Klopp won for liverpool and for 9 years, which is the exact number of years Klopp will be manager when he goes. The series was created by Fran Striker, which is where Klopp played when he was player. Im sure it's all just yet another amazing coincidence that the clues and facts match the story exactly though 🙄 Edited January 26 by Turkish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might not like him (and I don’t) but to deny he’s done a fucking good job is pathetic. He spent 254 million net, to put that in perspective City spent 692mil, Utd 888mil, Chelsea 835 mil, & Arsenal 696mil. With that he won every trophy, gave Liverpool their first title in 30+ years and is probably 3rd behind Shanks & Bob Paisley as their best ever manager. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamesaint Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 A good friend of mine is a typical plastic Liverpool fan. Unlikely to ever get to the city let alone Anfield he completely buys into the Klopp legend. We had a little falling out at the time of our League cup 2 legged semi final. If you remember Nathan Redmond played a blinder in the first leg and Puell's tactics out thought Klopp's over the 2 legs. This definitely didn't fit the "legendary Klopp image" and having it pointed out was not what my friend could accept easily. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
