Leaving aside the rather questionable claims from this Stoke fan for a second, is it just me or does he sound familiar? He's obviously putting on the Scouse a bit, but it really sounds like him, to me. Am I imagining things or is there something to it?
Following the Mousers' home defeat to Palace, Herr Klopp' was heard to say..... "We dominated the game...." How long before he's quoting possession statistics?
They had one shot on target all game. One. And it wasn't even from open play. This Liverpool side are so easy to play against and out-maneuver. It infuriates me how we handed the game to them on a silver platter all because we lacked the humility to do it 'the bottom six way'.
I scored them ahead on points too, but then Palace struck a knockout blow. They have a glass jaw - Klopp doesn't get this.
They had a shocking defence before he turned up there. It was no better in his first season. So, last summer, he goes out and buys Klavan, Karius and Matip. No left back and no defensive midfielder despite having no good ones to call upon. I don't see the Emperor's new clothes. If he doesn't land top 4 this season why, would he next?
since that orrible little man RCL decided to like this post an hour ago alerting me to my thoughts of a few weeks ago can i just say **** off oh one last thing Klopp may have poor record in finals but at least we win the semis
Losing an FA Cup final might get you in the EL which is more than you managed last season. You're not just losing finals. You're also losing the wrong ones.
Somehow the Narrative forgot that Poch's already won a semi with us: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/30910040
The lack of criticism for Klopp's complete failure to deal with the second half of this season is ridiculous. They were top and going to win the league. Now top 4 looks dodgy. From the press? Not a peep. Less of a sausage than at a Jewish, vegetarian wedding. The bloke is 'The New Messiah' and he's doing a bang average job this season. His team can't beat teams at the bottom of the table and they're immune to criticisms? I wonder what would constitute failure after 8th last season? Bottom half? Relegation? Maybe next year is their year?
Liverpool are claiming the reason they didn't sign Dele Alli a few years ago is because he was asking for too much money. Just a reminder, when Joe Cole's Chelsea contract expired, Liverpool were the only club in world football who agreed to match the £100k a week Chelsea were paying him - even though Cole spent most of his time at Chelsea on the treatment table.
He signed for us on £10k per week and we paid more than £1m on top of what Liverpool offered MK. They pay James Milner £140k per week which is their problem in a nutshell. Overpaying for ordinariness. Surprising given that John We Henry is a proponent of 'Money Ball's in Baseball. If The Mousers fail to get CL this time round it will be interesting to see what they spend on transfers. Mane aside their big money buys have not impressed (much like ours).
They didn't seem to have a problem with Mane demanding Liverpool treble what he was earning at Southampton either...
