    You say you're not making predictions but you did say he will be managing in the upper levels of the premier league again soon.

    That to me is a prediction.

    It's not a hard question, if you don't think it will be a top 4 team then it leaves you guessing at Everton, Spurs, Southampton maybe?

    Spurs would be my guess. Or he gets a lesser team and moves them above their current level.

    Celtic wouldn't be a bad shout for Rodgers. He'd get a few trophies on the cv and he can learn to strengthen his European game with guaranteed CL qualifiers every year followed by the Europa league group phase

    I think you actually broke his post :pac:

    If the committee bought Aspas, they should all be horse whipped before getting the sack.

    I'm just quoting this because its such a great cluster **** of quoting.

    I 100% agree and that's what annoyed me when people wrote off Markovic. If Carragher was asked to play as a right winger I'm sure he would have been a flop. Same with Suarez at centre half or Gerrard in goal.

    Wash your mouth out. Suarez would dominate at any position he was asked to play in.

    It has also been said that Rodgers had final say after the TC input too and look how those signings turned out. My point being if Klopp is in the exact same situation with a TC and the final say - will our record in the transfer market improve or be just as baffling.

    My feeling is that Rodgers said he had 'the final say' so as to maintain a picture that he was 'the man'.

    You look a bit gimpy as a manger of one the worlds biggest clubs who has players foisted on you.

    A Klopp Drop?

    Sky Sports are fúcking creaming themselves over Klopp.

    it's slightly embarrassing.

    Not entirely... If you look at his career pre-Liverpool and post Liverpool, you will see that he is a good player. He just didn't work out for us for whatever reason. These things can happen. Can't forgive him for that corner though :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,347 ✭✭✭✭Grayditch


    We did just watch Aspas piss all over Barca's defence last week :) Fair play to the lad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,769 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    I can't believe we still don't have a song for Klopp!

    Small bit of an exaggeration there.
    Markovic is predominately a winger. Stretching him to play as a wing back, whilst not his preferred position, was obviously too much for Lazar.
    We never got to see all those great things he did in those youtube videos that were doing the rounds when he signed.

    If only we could find the person responsible for playing him out of postion and do something about it.

    With what?

    Knowing who the manager was that played Markovic out of position? Knowing that manager was sacked?

    Yes I'm on board with knowing both those things.

    Doesnt look like a verified account.

    I've just read that Klopp is still in Germany.

    Just a couple of quick points

    regarding the transfer committee and whoever the new manager will be...........

    Whoever it may be coming in (most likely Jurgy bear), would there be any real guarantee our transfer fortunes will turn around?? That would be a fear for many of us.

    But I would like to point something out. When we where replacing Dalglish it was reported we looked at Klopp and a couple of big names, BUT it always seemed we where after Rodgers with Martinez as an alternative option.

    This time around we seem to be appointing Klopp with Ancelotti as an alternative..................... If that doesnt look like a huge change in attitude from the recruitment committee then nothing will


    Re Klopp:

    It seems to be all positive messages doing the rounds about Klopp.......... Stay with me a sec on this. Every time a manager comes to a team in the premiership you hear about the good things about the guy yes, but you also get ex players and staff saying bad things about him.

    LVG (who is a great manager lets not pretend) for instance had his few run ins with players and staff in the past and we heard from them just after he was appointed and since. Rafa, Rodgers, Jose, Ancelotti, AVB and so on, they have all had ex p[players say something bad about them in the past. Now just because people talk smack about a person doesnt mean it has substance. For example a lot of these ex players were players not favoured by these managers. You rarely here these things from players who were first choice on the team sheet.

    But back to my point, Klopp seems to ONLY have good things said about him. Nobody seems to be aggrieved with him. Which means he is likely to be good when it comes to people. He seems to be a people person and thats why people dont not like him.

    Now that means f1ck all for actual management skills but it is a good thing for the image of our club. So maybe Klopp coming here will also get our image back on track. Sense Hicks and Gillet and then Suarez, our image has been damaged over the last few years. Dalglish (I love the man) didnt exactly appease the press. Rodgers has been laughed at by opposition fans. Our image hasnt been great.

    But Klopp seems to be liked, ALOT. By everyone. That can only be good for us. In the "great year" by Rodgers (surely his future book lol) I cant help but feel a lot more of the neutrals would have backed us if we had Klopp in charge as oppose to Rodgers................

    So our transfers may not change but at least people will like us :D

    Nooooo!!!

    Please don't start this sh*t again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,872 ✭✭✭Dickerty


    One big plus for me on Klopp is that you can imagine a lot of talented players would really want to play for him.
    So in Jan and summer, the Klopp factor might be a big element in attracting someone like a Reus, or Matuidi, or Oliver Torres for example - I think they would leave an already big club for a chance to maybe be part of something special with Klopp...

    I've already spoken about the decision and won't be doing so again.

    If the rumours about which players were transfer committee signings and which were Rodgers signings then I don't think the committee has been that bad.

    Coutinho, Sturridge, Sakho, Moreno, Firmino, Can, Markovic - all look to have something imo. Some are important first team players already, and I wouldn't write off the others.

    Very excited to see how we line up under Klopp (assuming there are no late hitches).

    Mignolet

    Clyne
    Skrtel
    Sakho
    Moreno

    Can

    Henderson
    Coutinho

    ----Sturridge
    Benteke
    Firmino


    That would be my preferred system with the current personnel. We are really missing a pacy wide player, and I wish Markovic was still here.

    Everybody is definitely jinxing this. Let's talk about getting Sam Allardyce.
