This is a long shot. As a man in great pain lol.

Any chance xabi was just politic-ing and may change his stance? We don’t get him now I would imagine it means he’s waiting for Madrid. The options are so limited with Amorim downplaying links. Maybe ed2 is making the call with the Ajax coach and he’ll perform the miracle we need.

Alonso isn’t going to manage us. He’s waiting for the Madrid job. Ed002 mentioned the Feyenoord manager not Ajax but also said he wasn’t going to br the one either. With Amorim ruling himself out and it not being De Zerbi (which is a relief if De Zerbi isn’t an option), then it is slim pickings as there’s no quality out there. We’re now being linked to Nico Kovac who has failed in every managerial post he’s ever had. I’ve no confidence that the next manager will be competent or successful given the almost non existent pool available.

Has Amorim ruled himself out?

I know he’s denied any agreement but I didn’t know he’s ruled himself out.

Goodness me! I don’t want Kovac.

Amorim still 5 to 1 on with the bookies to become the next Liverpool manager.

All he did was deny reports of an agreement - it doesn't mean he isn't in talks with us. He's not exactly going to rubbish where he eats (if you will excuse the expression) until the I's are dotted and the t's are crossed.

Even when a full agreement with someone is in place and signed, don't be surprised if it isn't announced until their season is effectively over so as not to impact their current club.

So klopp gets only the carabao cup as send off.
Befitting as he decide to leave the club stranded in middle of season.
Obviously nobody is interested in playing for him.

Troll.

Away from today's game.

A few weeks ago there was a near national inquiry into why a certain Paul Tierney handed the ball back to Kelleher as opposed to a Forest player.

It was deemed so bad that Tierney himself was demoted for the following match week

In the game today between Arsenal and Villa, the EXACT SAME situation arose and guess what, the infamous Coote gave the ball back to Arsenal when Villa where in possession.

I eagerly await the same inquiry and certainly look forward to Coote being given time off next week.

I also know that there is more chance of Utd winning the league this year!

Just had to add that Paul Tierney was the fourth official in the Arsenal vs Villa game by the way.

It is with every fibre of my being that I hope Klopp says that's enough and bins this inverted fullback nonsense for good.

You most likely have seven games left - two at anfield. Make them count.

The return of heavy metal Klopp football till we part ways, give us all a reminder of why we feel in love with your football to begin with.

Amen Wassa
From your lips to God's hears.

14 Apr 2024 18:32:21
And then what JLC? Are you expecting Robbie to call Klopp?

15 Apr 2024 06:31:56
Why not Zed?
Maybe miracles can still happen.

15 Apr 2024 10:09:44
God: Alrite Gaffer, I need you to, like, go back to playing full throttle, like.

Klopp: You are the messiah, Robbie, I will do as you ask.

*heavenly music and angels on harps*

Kinda like that, JLC?

15 Apr 2024 12:53:14
Yip. Something like that.

14 Apr 2024 17:38:36
Same old story unfortunately today, slow start 1 down should've been 2. Played better 2nd half missed 3r4 sitters showing zero composure. League will fizzle out now just important 2 get whatever wins we need to gurantee champ league. We just totally devoid if any confidence anywhere. Thurs nite may as well just throw whatever we have at them, play with pace and whatever happens happens.

If it gets the message across Digger I would carry a kitchen sink on the plane with me if I was klopp,

Salah Mane and Bobby were a fearsome front 3, ohhh with them 3 we would be clear, i reckon Bobby would have been ok this season. They had the luxury of Hendo and Fab tho and Trent and Robbo were the straw breakers. This season again we got to the top thanks to the midfield chipping in and Jotta and Salah. Salah off to afcon and robbo and trent both being injured at different stages has pulled the team in different directions, players have hit form and then got injured, Jotta Trent Jones Salah all got injured and caused an effect on the team, Bradley and Kellaher and Quansa are the seasons success stories. For me when it was identified that Moreno and Lovren were not up to the standard i would say we are at the same crossroads with Jones and Nunez, players i expect to go are Salah, Nunez, Diaz, Jones, Endo. This seasons end was down to injuries of players who could not find form, Jotta and Trent need a few games to find form sadly its going to be too late.

It doesn't matter who is upfront. If the defence and midfield insist on playing so slow and almost exclusively sideways or backwards (and often to the opposition or straight out of play) nobody is going to make a difference up front. They are playing like a training game with no urgency and I hate to say it but Virg is the worst culprit. As captain he has to lead by example. He should be screaming at them and instilling some urgency but instead he is dawdling and being caught on the ball.
20 sideways/ backwards passes and then a long ball back to the opposition. It's schoolboy stuff and not good enough. No movement in midfield to open up a pass, no movement between the lines. The forwards make runs but are never given the ball so they stop making the runs .
They are not bad players, I just think that the injuries have caught up with us. We have a core of players who have played more than they should have combined with players coming back who are not up to speed.

Well if that’s the reaction Klopp expected against palace then we may as well pack up for the season, why we have gone back to the tried and failed tactics he chooses to play is beyond me.

14 Apr 2024 19:01:43
In fairness we looked like we were playing with flip flops on. Some of those boys looked like they’ve checked out for the summer.

14 Apr 2024 17:31:15
Not saying this is the reason for the capitulation that’s just occurred this past week, as we’ve seen periods like this under Klopp before, but there’s a reason a team hasn’t won the PL with the thurs-sun schedule.
