« Last post by has gone odd on Today at 07:34:52 am »Like many here, have tried to convince myself that this new era is going to be amazing because our owners would never do the wrong thing or make a mistake. My mind though is changing daily ...
The boss knew the club would need to find a replacement swiftly, but perhaps, at least judging by his reaction yesterday, the manner and means of doing so have not impressed Klopp whatsoever. Didn't seem at all impressed by the news himself and can see why. While it has not been dragged out too long, the process smacked of cheap sideshow to an important end of season run, in which we have now spectacularly imploded.
The usual cheap ass budget will re-surface and will leave the same old problems, like not plugging obvious gaps, if previous history tells us anything.

Opta has at it .17 which makes sense for a header like 10 yards out where the player reaching for it

« Last post by spider-neil on Today at 07:33:19 am »The disappointment is the teams we've dropped points to.
Manu - Are shit
Everton - Are shit
Palace - Have had a recent resurgence but we were at home
West Ham - Are in terrible form
Winning those games but dropping points to Villa away (4th) and Spurs home (5th) would have been far more understandable.

« Last post by spider-neil on Today at 07:20:15 am »Serious question but before the season started and after the season we had last year, how many of us would have been happy with a cup win and a return to Champions League football?
Especially after a midfield overhaul and Chelsea spending a billion.

« Last post by spider-neil on Today at 07:18:42 am »It's all gone a bit Roy Evans. Oh well, we lost a lot of experience last summer but it was fun while it lasted. For years I didn't expect to even be in a title race never mind actually winning the thing when we did! Cheers Jurgen.
What's is Roy Evans cockney slang for?

Also, Klopp was a name but he wasn't the be-all and end-all with regard to getting players to join. Dom said it was more than Klopp that made him join and Caicedo went to Chelsea.
