    Too many Klopps will spoil the stew.

    Stop the Klopp, stop the Klopp
    Stop the Klopp, stop the Klopp
    Can't stop the Klopp, you can't stop the Klopp
    Stop the Klopp, stop the Klopp, stop the Klopp

    We sold Downing two years ago. No need to worry about him.

    Ground Control to Jurgen Klopp
    Ground Control to Jurgen Klopp
    Take your Dortmund skills
    and put your red cap on

    Ground Control to Major Tom
    Commencing countdown,
    Anfield's on
    Check ignition
    and may Fowler be with you

    This is Ground Control to Jurgen Klopp
    You've really made the grade
    And the scousers want to know whose specs you wear
    Now it's time to win the title,
    if you dare

    Edit: Knexlande, no points. What was I thinking. ****ing Bowie. Drawing board again, I'd say.

    OK, now the initial excitement is calming down, a calmer, saner look at what Klopp means:

    The Prize.
    He'd be on the top 3 list for a new manager in the top 7 or 8 clubs in the world. United and Real wanted him but couldn't get him. We've tried twice before according to some reports.

    Contacts and Name Recognition.
    Very few managers hace his high profile. It was reported a big reason we lost out on Mikaltyran was Klopp despite us offering more money. CL as well obviously but don't under estimate what his standing in the game means to players.

    Box Office.
    Ties in with the above and will do no harm for signing new players, finances, club profile.

    Belief.
    The guy is a winner, nuf said. He massively over achieved with Dortmund and Mainz.

    Fans.
    There's no doubt he gets the club which is essential for a new boss. He'll attract devotion like a Mourinho.

    Addes bonus that rival fans are butt hurt, shocked and in denial. They really didn't think we could him or Ancelotti. Shows you how huge Liverpool is and just when people think we are back in our box, we can still pull a surprise and remind the "big boys" we're still here.

    Mad Men's Don Draper : What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons.

    Knex hasn't quite drank the koolade (kloppade?), favouring instead to heat some up in a spoon and inject directly into his veins.

    Best of luck down the "K hole" Knex.

    His English has really come on. I saw him give his post match interview in English after Dortmund played Napoli in the Champions League and he was very stunted. He has clearly being doing some lessons so he may have known about this possibility for a while.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,072 ✭✭✭Tipsy McSwagger


    Can someone send out a search party for Luckycharms_74 he hasn't been seen in a few days, probably hugging his Brendan framed photo and crying himself to sleep each night.

    I have seem him doing other interviews with Dortmund and his English was fine, so I'd say you just saw him on a bad night.

    Ah fair enough. I admit it was the only time I saw him speaking English for an extended period of time so as you say it may well have just been an off night for him.

    I'm going to ask the question - would Raheem have left if we had brought Klopp in during the summer?

    Don't care really. I'd rather have the £50m...Though you could of course debate whether it's been wisely spent or not.

    We'll never know unless Sterling says so.

    More to the point, will Klopp be the man to attract higher quality players to the club? I think he has that wow factor that players will want to play for.

    Yes, Raheem was never going to skip out on a chance to earn £200k + per week playing CL ball, with a better squad of players, particularly when you factor in the fact that he had an absolute cúntbag of an agent pushing for the move/gigantic personal payday

    They'll be linking this in their sigs.

    He's serving a ban. No need to be a thunderous dick about it.

    He's as excited for the club now as anyone else, I bet.

    Does he really offer much more thn a text from Gerrard?

    I had forgotten about that. Jaysus, I was on form that day.

    I'd be more interested in seeing if we can get Markovic back in January some season long loan deals have recalls in them mid season.

    Ibe was recalled from a season long loan last January.


    Klopp when asked about the squad and ended by saying we had some wingers.

    Its possible foreign ones are a little more complicated, but it'll be interesting to see how he handles them.

    Didn't know he was banned but couldn't care less.

    Why post about him then?

    Seems to be an interesting character.

    Will be interesting to see how he geta in.

    Captain Hans Geering seemed obsessed by him years ago.
