Actually surprised by that. I guess making three finals and winning two of them (so far!) and taking the fight for the title to the last day of the season trump's actually winning it these days? ;D

Hope Ped takes this in his usual, magnanimous style.
It's absolutely the correct result, though.

Ped should be sweeping the board virtually every season. Lifting the title by the skin of his teeth, and with the help of some very dubious officiating going in his favour, and failing in every other competition entered is rather poor given his advantages.

Klopp has blown him out of the water this season.

Some of those Twitter comments are strange to say the least!  The ones saying Pep Guardiola should have won because he won the Premiership, seem to ignore the fact that Man City were odds on favourites to win the Premiership by many fans, pundits and bookies! So hardly deserving to win LMA manager of the year due to winning a trophy everybody thought you were going to do lol

exactly.

Only need to look at that mad list of predictions from the BBC as to what was expected of Liverpool.

Now all of a sudden, Ped is hard done by, for achieving the least expected. Didn’t get to a single final, failed again at the biggest stage, yeah, that’s not worthy of any award. Hence when the 92 league managers voted, the man who did deserve it won.

glad we have a generational coach in klopp. No one even comes close to what he have done at dortmund and here. absolute best in the world at what he does.

congratulations boss. So richly deserved. You deserve the world and we are so lucky to have him as our figurehead and leader. Best human and manager in world football without a shadow of doubt. So glad your a red boss.

There is a picture of Klopp getting his award from Sir Alex and he pulls him in to take the picture with him. Such a humble respectful wonderful human is he. It then hit me so glad that he never went to United instead of us. The football world could of been a lot different. Glad it did not happen.

I think as much as a lot of people out there might hate Liverpool, they genuinely love Klopp, both as a manager and also as a person. We've played a full fixture list this season, missed out on the league by a point and could still finish with a cup treble. This award is richly deserved.

So many clockwork turds spewing out the same salty rhetoric that the cups we have already won are now either mickey mouse OR not deserving of them because we didn't win in 120 minutes is actually laughable. Notably the same salty clockwork turds that point to Jurgen finishing in 2nd and winning these awards as rewarding failure, are the same people who think that Eddie Howe should have won it after coming 11th  :butt   ...ok he did a reasonable job but lets be clear, once they start spending their blood soaked oil money next season, Eddie wont be at the helm come the end of it, AND, if Pep had lost on the final day of this season, he would probably be on his way out now too!

City won the league - fair enough, but it was bought, lets not sugar coat it. And they won it by the skin of their teeth on the last day of the season! They should consider themselves lucky that they had something to celebrate!!!

Whether they want to admit it or not, the same clockwork turds would swap their position for ours 99 times out of 100, and they would probably want Klopp (who's rightly just done the double - again) as their manager too.

I like the fact we live in all of their heads rent free, but it would actually be quite nice, for once, to have the achievements applauded for what they are, rather than having to wade through all the bile all over social media calling everything a conspiracy, a fix, or thick as fuck 4 year olds spouting the same LiVARpool bollocks like they were the first to think it up and funny as fuck for it!

There is a serious question to be raised about who should have been swallowed.

I've never known a time when the bitter and the jealous didn't try to devalue our success. It's amazing that our wins on penalties seemingly don't count, but if we lose on penalties we are simply ''losers" and our oppositions wins definitely do count.

The bottom line is that there will always be those who can only cope with our success by indulging in the most elaborate and embarrassing mental gymnastics. Everything counts when we lose it, but nothing counts when we win it.

Rewarding failure? Well Guardiola picking up the award would have been exactly that. His entire season was saved right at the death. He's a very lucky man. He really should have finished this season empty handed. Only for some outrageous officiating, he would have too.

He was brought in to flat-track bully domestically. His season was an abject failure on that score. His overriding task at the Emptyhad is to lift Big Ears. He has presided over their abject failure there too, despite being given the cheat codes absolutely free.

Klopp, on the other hand, has organically built the best legitimate football team English football has ever seen, with money actually earned legitimately by the club itself. He's won trophies despite facing the biggest sports wash programme in the history of sport. He's also in the final of the biggest game in world club football. His sports washing adversary isn't.

That's the reality of it. Klopp has done more with less, and Guardiola has done far less with more.

Klopp beats him hands down.

The gymnastics is funny but also predictable. If you start on the basis that no matter what we do or what we achieve it'll never be good enough for the jealous or the desperate for clicks, then you won't go far wrong.

When we hadn't won stuff under Klopp it was Loserpool. Then we had null and void. Then it was have they won enough(while wilfully ignoring the nature of our competition). Then it was the media driven quadruple with shouts of failure when it didn't happen.

If we won all 4, we'd be told we had to do it again. If we win on Saturday, we'll be told we need to win the league again. If we lose on Saturday, they'll try telling us that the season's been a failure. Oh and if we win on pens on Saturday there'll be some that say it doesn't count.

Thankfully most on here can see through it all, but every now and then there's the odd poster that gets taken in  ;)

That's exactly my position on this.

I actually saw Klopp referred to in the paper last week, before the final games of the season, as Jurgen Flopp.  :lmao

But yes, the trick is to enjoy the ride, drink in the victories and ignore the background noise made by the bitter and the jealous.

Please tell me that wasn't in an article, although these days there's very little difference between journalist comments and fan comments as the former become more like cheerleaders.

More and more these days, outright bullshit goes unchallenged and so seeps into a wider audience. Linked to that, more and more people are making outrageously hypocritical statements that also go unchallenged. A bit like a player from a team that have massively short changed the fans this year laughing at us for not winning the league.

Ah yes, the moving of goalposts, it’s amazing: 

Get to 2 finals with previous managers’ squad that had never got to a final under him - Klopp is a loser.
Achieves the goal of CL qualification in his first full season - He hasn’t won anything.
Wins CL final and Club World Cup and Super Cup - But he hasn’t won the league.
Wins the league - But he hasn’t won a domestic cup.
Wins League Cup - We didn’t mean that one, we meant the big one - the FA Cup.
Wins FA Cup to complete the set - But but but - he hasn’t won the Community Shield!!!!!

 :D You're right.
But it's one thing fans coming out with shite like this, it's almost expected, however pathetic it is.

On the other hand, when it's paid professionals coming out with this sort of crap in order to fill airtime or meet a deadline, or even to show their bosses how many clicks and comments their article has got, then I just wonder how little self respect some of these people must have.

Need a programme idea? I know, lets talk about how Liverpool won't have a better chance to win the league than this season (ignoring that about 90% of pundits had them coming 4th before the season started)

Got a deadline? I know, 1000 words on how this Liverpool side haven't won enough trophies should do the trick. The Liverpool fans will get wound up and the rest will love it. Plenty of "engagement" and I've hit my targets.

It's truly pathetic. Stealing a living.

On the other hand, when it's paid professionals coming out with this sort of crap in order to fill airtime or meet a deadline, or even to show their bosses how many clicks and comments their article has got, then I just wonder how little self respect some of these people must have.

Need a programme idea? I know, lets talk about how Liverpool won't have a better chance to win the league than this season (ignoring that about 90% of pundits had them coming 4th before the season started)

Got a deadline? I know, 1000 words on how this Liverpool side haven't won enough trophies should do the trick. The Liverpool fans will get wound up and the rest will love it. Plenty of "engagement" and I've hit my targets.

It's truly pathetic. Stealing a living.

It’s just so joyless isn’t it. Here’s a man who’s come into the premier league and done nothing but bring wonderful football, excitement, fun, humour, honesty, personality, chaos and joy to the league, but far to many people can’t do anything but try and downplay him and his achievements.

This attitude may go deeper than football for a lot of them - the misery of their personalities is deeply ingrained.

Klopp isn’t just the best thing to happen to Liverpool in a long time, he’s the best thing to happen to the premier league.

I've a feeling that when Klopp finally leaves, he may well decide to tell this shitty, small-minded, bigoted, forelock tugging, corrupt nation a few home truths.

Of course, if he did, it would be delivered beautifully, with a smile and a laugh, and maybe a call to action too.

Please tell me that wasn't in an article, although these days there's very little difference between journalist comments and fan comments as the former become more like cheerleaders.

More and more these days, outright bullshit goes unchallenged and so seeps into a wider audience. Linked to that, more and more people are making outrageously hypocritical statements that also go unchallenged. A bit like a player from a team that have massively short changed the fans this year laughing at us for not winning the league.
Thankfully, no, it wasn't in an article. It was someone writing in moaning about Klopp talking about fixture congestion.

Mind you, the same thing is implied time after time by actual writers in the media, isn't it.

The light that burns twice as bright, burns half as long, and you've burned so very, very brightly, Jürgen.

Ah yes, the moving of goalposts, it’s amazing: 

Get to 2 finals with previous managers’ squad that had never got to a final under him - Klopp is a loser.
Achieves the goal of CL qualification in his first full season - He hasn’t won anything.
Wins CL final and Club World Cup and Super Cup - But he hasn’t won the league.
Wins the league - But he hasn’t won a domestic cup.
Wins League Cup - We didn’t mean that one, we meant the big one - the FA Cup.
Wins FA Cup to complete the set - But but but - he hasn’t won the Community Shield!!!!!

Let me introduce Tom Cat as the media and opposition fans, and Jerry Mouse as Jürgen Klopp and Liverpool FC.

The light that burns twice as bright, burns half as long, and you've burned so very, very brightly, Jürgen.

Its a combination of things but the vast majority of us do it. I really couldn’t see many fans singing Klopps praises were he a side we have disliked for years’ manager e.g. Man U. Add to that if he was bringing them success, would any of us really be happy and not showing signs of jealousy or downplaying achievements, he’s amazing but he is OUR manager. Is it really suprising he gets a lot of criticism while managing us? It happens to everyone to be honest and most football fans dont give a shit about some of the more important things, there’s no superiority, it seems to be the same across the sport. It’s like the top players, if the top players leave your competitors you enjoy it, the focus isn’t what they bring to the league, you like seeing the chances of your sides success increase and that of your rivals decrease. Peoples arguments for measuring success never make sense either :lmao the moving of the goalposts is always going to be the thing

Best thing to do is just ignore the nonsense and focus on enjoying the fact WE have Klopp as our manager, it’s pointless to expect some adoration from the other sides because he’s a direct rival and we would to be honest be the same

Football support is still stuck in the dark ages a lot of the time and the arguments are very childish, to expect more is to set yourself up for disappointment. They can say what they like, we know our level and we’re doing things many sides haven’t ever experienced, that brings hatred, jealousy, downplaying and whatever else you want to call it
