Mind blown that Rachel won. I just can't see it being successful at all. The whole idea of "small boutique" gyms and a multi-million pound business chain just do not correlate.

Fast forward to 9.30m into the vid

Bastien schweinsteiger was not allowed into the dressing room after training, as Utd were looking to force him out.  John Murtough was standing in the doorway preventing him from getting his things. I must assume they were hoping that Bastien would force his way past John (in  order to get his stuff) then they could fire Bastien for gross misconduct or something.  You can see why Jose eventually loses a dressing room after 2 yrs or so, if this is how he conducts himself

Bit unsure what to make of it all. I loved Schweinsteiger and he seems to love the club. But I remember during his one season there were a lot of murmurings about his teammates being sick of him, that he was going all over the world with his wife any time he was injured (which was regularly), that he was flying in and out of Manchester for games only, that kind of stuff, that they thought he saw it as a retirement move, which tbf it was. Jose is obviously a guy who has previous for this sort of thing so I assume most of what he says is true, but I think he's painting himself a bit whiter than white in this. Its still no excuse for the Murtough story he tells of course.

Rafa minus goatee - CL and FA Cup
Rafa with goatee - Andriy Voronin

We should maybe be looking at beardless, haired managers. Like Roy Evans or Alan Curbishley.

We've never really been a smooth passing team under Klopp have we?  We have mostly been a fast attacking, direct (ish), and mad pressing team.  A controlled passing team who patiently plays out of the back isn't anything we've ever tried to do really.

When we won the league I think we were very controlled and our forwards were far better at retaining possesion high up the field so we retained posession exceptionally well.

Good, we don't do bald either.

What's our official position on tidy beards?

LFC Interview:

“What are your qualifications?”

I’ve won two league titles and one Champions League, playing high intensity football with high xG and low xG against.  I am fluent in English and speak two other languages which will help integrate staff and players.

“How are your relationships with nerds?”

My best mate is a nerd.  So is my brother.

“How are you with budgets?”

I am willing to work within the confines inlaid out by the sporting director and team.  I will also abide by the “No Dickheads” policy.

“How’s your relationship with RAWK?”

Good.  I get along with Jack and Dilks.  I enjoy bantering with Al.  Killer Heels said she’s willing to sacrifice a child to hire me.

“Excellent, just one final question:  what are your go-to hair treatments?”

I was thinking of going bald actually.

“No offer.  Get the fuck out of here.”

Just do what they do in Germany, seeded for the 3rd round and the top 32 seeds play away to the bottom 32 seeds and then same again for the 4th round.

This isn't knee-jerk - he has been back for what, 2 months? After a 1 month lay-off? That should have been enough time to get back to whatever level he is going to get back to.

I think with the way the season is petering out, and with Klopp going, this summer is finally the time for Mo to find a new challenge.

If you don't count the Brentford game when he got re-injured, he was out for 7 weeks and has been back for 6. Still as you say, plenty of time to get back up to speed.
