New Manager [Klopp Watch]

[Tee]

In my mind you are like a 72 year old grandma sat alone in her front parlour room. There is a clock chiming in the background, looking out your front window drinking tea from a bone china cup.

A cat walks by.

It is grey and raining outside.

I feel getting into CL is a bonus this season and instilling a clear pattern of play is the important objective. With Brendan, we couldn't see either happening. That was the problem.

Maybe but for the second season running the Premier League is pants. Man City look to be the best around at the mo and even they've been turned over twice away from home recently.

Man United were comfortably taken care of by Arsenal who are as brittle as they've always been over the last decade or so and the less said about Chelsea the better

We don't have a bad squad at all so if it's Klopp I'm optimistic he can do good things from the get go.

Time to be positive again

I just want you to get a bit of the excitement too. Pop a shot brandy in the tea and arrange to meet a friend.

That's earily accurate he's even got that old musty smell about him

[Lecter]

I don't know if I rate Klopp or not but his record doesn't compare to Ancelotti. Not even remotely close.

And Rodgers' record doesn't compare to Klopps

You were very vociferous last week and seemed to poo-poo the suggestion that more qualified managers could get more out of this squad than Rodgers could. Stating the the structure not the manager was to blame

[Lecter]

I'm going to adopt the highly cynical stance. He's got to get us in the CL this season and instill a clear pattern of play fairly quickly. If not, it would have been pointless sacking Rodgers at this point in time.

And yet you bemoaned when many of us were cynical in regards to Brendan after he had been here 3 years!!!

[Buzzo]

Who knows, Klopp might even get some of the players performing to a higher level, you know, coach them.

Sometimes it takes someone different to come along and say something in your ear, to motivate, and we may get a different result out of a player.

He looks like he will almost demand a response, and he looks like he will go mental if we play ****.

We need a bit of that.

[Norbs]

I bet we get him only to see this headline 3 years later

Kop Flop Klopp gets the Chop

Not you as well FFS.

Uh oh, what did I do?

How many pages do I need to read back through

Nah, your alright - long story short its just Nigey/Frodo already being negative about a manager we've not even signed yet.

Klopps middle name is Norbert.

Get used to it- it's Klopp

Talks between Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp's representatives have progressed well as the club look to replace manager Brendan Rodgers.

The former Borussia Dortmund coach is favourite to take over from the Northern Irishman, with ex-Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti a strong contender.

German Klopp, 48, is understood to be open to the idea of a move.

The club's owners intend to have a new manager in place for the Premier League trip to Tottenham on 17 October.

[Chris]

This is done isnt it? And those reports from the Balkans about his assistant already being in Liverpool and having a 3 year contract were right.

cant see him putting up with any of those defensive slip ups we have been so easy to give away. We need the fear factor back and heopefully the thought of a Klopp bitch slap might wake a few players up . I think a Klopp cam in the early days would be great to watch!
