    Klopp has just been charged with misconduct by the FA - no surprise there - has until 6pm Thursday to respond. Would imagine his response will be the same as what he said yesterday and will take whatever comes on the chin. No mention of what potential outcomes will be.


    Was the Manchester Utd manager charged for flinging the bottles? I mean people could have been killed!

    take the fine and minimal ban and move on.

    it's some of the best money he'll have ever spent.
    Yep, think he's the kinda guy that will just put his hands up and take what comes. Class act

    So new left side on Wednesday , Robbo and Mane picked up knocks doubt they will be risked ,

    3 points would be fantastic with one of Arsenal and United to drop points, Probably a united win is best for us ,

    Or he will point to Pep last season who was down celebrating with Man City players after their late winner V Bournemouth and was not even charged

    What about when pep was on the field roughing up an opposition player (Redmond)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,611 ✭✭✭✭ERG89


    Managers shouldn't run on the pitch, doesn't matter in what circumstances.
    I think he will probably get a fine and warning of future conduct, I guarantee Jose will focus on it in his presser without even being asked & will be itching to do it himself once he finds someone in the squad who will hug him back.
    If it was at Goodison Park he'd get a touchline ban for sure.

    He's like the polar opposite of Rafa. Rafa generally doesn't even crack a smile when his team scores.

    Only odd thing he ever did was sit down on the pitch during the penos in the CL semi final in 2007.
    Bar the hand wave vs Blackburn when he wanted us to do a routine but Torres lashed in a volley. Remember Allardyce taking offence to it.
    Also remember him gesturing to Kuyt to get booked out in Einthoven as we were 3 up in the first leg, by doing a jostle impression & he was 1 card from a ban.
    Rafa wasn't so stoned faced after all. :p

    Probably because of crap like this:

    Although if he got Sam up for one it'd be better remembered than Istanbul

    VVD is the PFA player of the Month.

    Assuming Liverpool win, there is literally not a result in the Arse-Man U match that I wouldn't enjoy.

    Probably would choose a Man U victory to prolong the Jose misery for them and scupper an actual top 4 rival.

    I think that was in 2005 and due to the fact that he didn't want to block the view of some of the fans behind him.

    United lose so the team morale is even lower before they play us.

    Nah I think that would motivate them to try harder. A frustrating 1-1 draw where Arsenal equalise in the dying minutes and then Mourinho attacks his players for lacking bottle to hold on to a lead! :pac:

    They've no bottle because Jose smashed them up after the goal against Young Boys.

    the Ballon d'Or list for 2018

    Alisson Becker No 25
    Sadio Mane No 22
    Roberto Firmino No 19
    Mo Salah No 6

    Not bad all in all (obviously some of Becker's points will be Roma era)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,029 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    So new left side on Wednesday , Robbo and Mane picked up knocks doubt they will be risked ,

    Had a feeling Robertson was due a rest. He's almost our least rotatable player due to the lack of quality back up in his position.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,081 ✭✭✭Fromvert


    I just hope when we rotate the back four we do it one player at a time, no rash three/four changes when injury isn't the cause. Don't want to see the below

    Clyne - Gomez/Lovren - Matip - Moreno

    Although I'm not sure we'll ever see Clyne kick a ball for us again. If Moreno is to get a game, start VVD beside him, always!

    Mane & Robertson injury doubts for the Burnley game.

    Jürgen Klopp going wild after a last-minute goal? ��

    Been there, done that ��

    I love that he's a normal guy/fan, same after we lost the Champions League final, he went out and had himself a few beers too many but some saw it as a reason to throw criticism his way.

    Love the guy, he celebrated that goal yesterday like I did. There is no malice or motive in his sometimes over the top celebrations, his emotion just gets the better of him. Is there a more honest manager with the media too?
    Its the reason players run through walls for him as there is just no BS with him.

    Does anyone think Origi could have a chance to get back into the team regularly? He's only 23 like, a damn sight better than Solanke would of been last season. He looked like he was going to be a top player for us at one stage.
    I'm a fan, he offers something different to our other forwards, almost created a goal for mane yesterday after Keita set him free.

    I think Klopp needs to stick with Fabinho and start Keita. Keita again yesterday in his cameo was looking for the forward pass, looking to get behind everton, we don't have another midfielder like that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,061 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    He could, clearly still has pace - you could see him as a foil for two of Mane/Salah/Firmino by stretching opposition defences from inside Liverpool's half - ie punt it and let Derek scuttle after it in the channels and then whip a cross in at worst.

    FA Cup draw is at 7.30 - bet Liverpool draw a decent PL side :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    I'd like to see Origi get a few games in now instead Daniel (to many selfish touches) Sturridge.



    Play Origi at the top of the 4 2 3 1.

    Exactly!

    It was pure innocent celebratory happiness. He was doing the same as everyone in the pub yesterday.

    He ran right to a Liverpool player. Didn't even look at an Everton player or try to antagonise the Everton fans in any way.

    I love the man!!!

    I loved Carraghers reaction too, "Look at Jurgen Klopp!". It was such an ending to the game just when it looked a disappointing draw.
