Is it just me, or is it starting to feel like Klopp was offered this in the summer and just wanted time away from the game? I see Wenger doing his usual speech about managers getting the sack too early for his liking, forgetting that we've just secured, I'm sorry, what feels like an upgrade, for want of a better term.

Villa or Newcastle.

He'd be perfect for Newcastle actually I think.

His career will be over if he takes the Villa job, they are in a terrible state. Newcastle would be another tough job to take on.

Maybe if he was available we may have moved for him. Who knows? We got him now anyway and we aren't in a disaster of a position, still salvageable.

Nothing really wrong with what Wenger said really being honest.

There's nothing particularly wrong with it, but it doesn't mention that we've replaced Rodgers with Jurgen Klopp and that maybe that had something to do with the timing.

Its been worked on since the league cup game as he mentioned in the papers this evening that he has watched our last three games again villa, sion and the ev. He wouldn't have been watching if he wasn't sounded out before them imo.

Alternatively, he was sounded out by the club after our last game, and went back and watched our last 3 games. He didn't mention anything about watching them live.

The next thing he said also was that by the time the Spurs game comes round, he'll have seen our last 20 games.

I know - they should pretend they lost the tapes or something, or he'll be getting second thoughts!

"Meh?" Is he a new forward Klopp is going to bring in?

New Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.

Makes sense and gives a context to Rodgers' final weeks and bizarre statements. He knew he was gone, possibly even as far as a month ago.

A boxset, that you really do need to go on a binge with. Preferable with the really strong stuff.

If this is the case, and I'm not convinced it is, then any recent improvement in performance takes on a very different meaning.

Given the club has been leakier for a couple of decades than a collander that's been gone over with a tommy gun, you'd have to think whispers were going around and got around to him and the players pretty quickly.

For instance, the Sakho contract renewal seemed a little odd in the context of Rodgers preferring to nail his ballbag to his forehead and then throw himself down some stairs than play him.

Ties in with the United loss though which was the final straw for many giving him a chance. By then the old habits had returned after a decent start.

Again, I just don't see this as something that was decided over a couple of days.

Do you understand the term "improved performance"? Didn't you say we would lose to Everton? An "improved performance" helped that not to happen. Performances do not equal results.

In all the excitement I had overlooked the bonus that he will never end up there now.

rob316 · 10-10-2015 09:44AM

I was out in a club last night and the barman was a dead ringer for Klopp. The poor ****er was hounded the whole night. I asked him then are you been hounded all week, he said people on the street morning, noon and night are screaming Klopp at him. He was telling me he doesn't even watch football so had no idea about him before but saw his presser yesterday and was delighted to be the look a like of such a cool guy.

Conclusion: EVERYONE LOVES KLOPP

Yes because Everton were better than us this season, the derby turned out to be a non event overseen by a manager who knew he was on the way out. People who were delighted with a draw against Norwich at home because it was an improved performance was a particular low point in Rodgers reign.

I vote Tipsy and Caovyn get their own thread and move their crap out of the LFC one.
