Topic: PREVIEW: LFC vs Wolves, May 19th ko 4pm. Goodbye Jurgen. Part 1/2

[Sharado]

.

We’ve made a mess of sone big send off type games in the past. Gerrard, the standing Kop being 2 that spring to mind. Hopefully we can get a win but it really doesn’t matter. Sunday is all about Jurgen

Ha ha - I was at both of those. Beyond a joke how shit Gerrard's was really and makes me wonder what'll happen sunday, when I'll be there again. Maybe it's me.

Don't really have the words for the last 8 years, but I know I'll cry on Sunday. I'll miss the manager a huge amount, I'll miss the man a hell of a lot more. Danke, Jurgen.

[Fromola]

The result doesn't really matter, the atmosphere and the send off is more important, but as mentioned Gerrard's last home game was utter dross and the last match of the standing Kop not producing a goal was the sad thing.

I thought it was important we turned up against Spurs at least, after the previous home games, and the players did. It'd be nice if they were up for it on Sunday and not just taking it easy ahead of the Euros/Copa which some probably will be.

The after match farewell is likely a bigger deal than the 90 minutes though.

[swoopy]

Will this be on Sky? Seen that TNT have chosen the Arsenal game so Sky have one more pick.

Yup. Sky are showing us.
It'll get more views than the cheats.

She supports united doesn't she Rob ? Explains a lot

Yup - their managers make them cry for totally different reasons

Excellent OP. Really interesting 2nd part in particular. Thanks for putting it together. A worthy tribute to one of greatest.

We need an Ian Rush v Watford type of result, 1-0 win and Rushy scored the only goal.

His final press conference is at 10am Friday morning. 

[Crosby Nick]

Just as long as Sky show everything, especially post match. Never forget how in 2019, was so proud of them, Ciry won at. Right on and then within a few minutes of the final whistle they switched over to show City lift the trophy which was already being shown on a different Sky Sports channel. Fuckers.

Cheers Paul. Would be lovely to send Jurgen on his way with a big win but ultimately the result feels fairly academic and it’s all about giving the great man the send off he deserves. Me and my son will no doubt be in a mess whil my wife and daughter wonder why we do this to ourselves.

[Too early for flapjacks?]

His final press conference is at 10am this morning. 

Think it's tomorrow.

Better to have love and lost than to have never loved at all.

Just glad he got to call it rather than being forced out, think it would've broken the fanbase.

Gonna be difficult, strange how things changed from how they were 4 months ago just before the news broke.

Just like Shanks, Jurgen's success is not just measured in trophies.

It was interesting his first couple of interviews/conference after he announced his decision he was talking about even though we struggled last season his job was never in question and that made him realise if someone had to call it, it would be him.

I think that he's right, I think he could have had a job here for a very long time if he wanted. I think he would have always had us up there and winning something. He's such a special manager and leader of people.

It will be intriguing to see what happens with him in the years to come.

I just hope they keep running the cameras at full time and don`t start cutting every 2 mins to betting adverts. This match isn`t really about the match and I hope Sky realise that.

[DelTrotter]

Not really looking forward to this but will no doubt be a beautiful day, I'm happy we get to say bye and I'm happy for Jurgs he's going on his own terms and seemingly in excellent health.

[Jookie]

Hope it’s sunny like the weather men are predicting.

Will make it better.

Ugh. Kavanagh and Coote...

Only surprised Constantine Hatzidakis isn't running the line, and Tierney on 4th official duties.

Yeah, the far east streams are pretty good for keeping with the post-match content - though on Sunday I'll be switching over to LFC TV at full-time.

Sky often delay interviews and certain footage and instead like to go with their agenda, whilst other countries show the interviews & footage live or very soon afterwards... which is why post match interviews often appear online... and before they are shown on Sky.

Plus if Sky do actually do anything of note, they'll promote the hell out of it on their social media hours later

Am hoping Carragher and Neville will be doing the other 2 matches on comms - and Sky get someone in at least half-decent / not as annoying.



There is a 30 minute special on Klopp on Sky Sports 1 - on Sunday at 7.30pm and repeated at 9.30pm... 'Klopp: He Made The People Happy'

www.sky.com/tv-guide/20240519/4101-1/402/E517-145 - it may appear in a few other places too soon after (if Sky don't put it up on their youtube channel etc)...

I read the OP with Morgan Freeman's voice in my head.  Some how seems fitting.


It's just a spec of dust I'll be fine in a minute.  :'(

[Fromola]

Any stats on what the Taylor/Kavanagh/Tierney/Coote ratio is on ref and VAR over the 38 games, compared to other clubs?

[David in Edinburgh]

Excellent Op.

That's quite the send off.

[TeddyMc]

I'm picturing Gary O'Neil not training his Wolves team this week instead he is in his office practicing his 3 hour Monday Night Football Special on how he beat Klopp in his last match as Liverpool manager.

They don’t even try to hide it

Excellent OP, Paul. Ultimately, this is the end of an era so I hope we see it out in style (I still remember Gerrard's last game). It's been a wonderful eight and a half years but remember: the past and future are but dreams. The present are all that matters.
