this is exactly the thread I needed.

Don’t get many heart throb’s called Glenn these days do you? Absolute banger.

On a semi serious note. I’ve just had a proper melancholy feeling about football since that United league game. You want something so much, and then slowly realise it’s probably not going to happen. And I’m not angry with anyone, just find the whole situation of how we (as a club) look lost and confused really sad. Closest comparison I think is probably the aftermath of Kenny’s resignation but I was only a kid then and not really able to comprehend it all.

Sorry to get a bit heavy. I’ll shut up and patiently await my hug. Thanks Keith!

Totally identify with something like that.

It would be lovely to not care about the football so much, wouldn't it? The times in my life where I've been the absolute happiest have just happened to coincide either with major trophies won or exciting challenges. I'm sure it's not coincidence. Last night was an exact sinking feeling I only remember a few other times- Palace 2014, the red Mancs winning late at Wigan in 2009 and the Kompany screamer in 2019. How many hours spent hoping and dreaming and then ..it's over. Klopp on his way out, looking absolutely spent. Yes, I need a hug.

Being optimistic, you never know what the future holds. Perhaps Klopps greatest achievement could go down as the legacy he leaves behind. A couple of players could probably use some fresh ideas.

I did feel just empty after Palace and Man Utd. But now that feeling like shit feeling is hitting me and it sucks big time.

Some cope for everyone

Champions League qualification was what should have been the main goal of the season, that is accomplished (in the preseason threads nobody was really thinking about the title)
Klopp announcement midway through season may not have helped
too many injuries, especially Jota....if you think about it was actually impressive we remained at the top so long during that stretch earlier in the year
good for Arne Slot to come off the back of a disappointing finish rather than on a league win

good enough copium?

[Samie]

I give hugs...

Exactly what I’ve been saying for months. This has been a successful season.

I can’t believe it took people until last night to realise we never had a chance of winning the league. Anyone who knows football would have seen that we aren’t good enough. Just as we aren’t good enough to, brace yourself, win a bloody quadruple!

We’re good enough to achieve our original goal, now we need to make sure of that in the last few games.

Threesome?

I know what you mean. A few games ago it felt like it was happening, even after the draw against Mab Utd where our performance was actually really good despite the result, it wasn't that bad. The last month everything has slipped away, made worse with Klopp leaving (which is rubbish in and of itself), and next season being a huge unknown. It'd be more palatable if we knew he was staying as this season has been a vast improvement from last and the hope would be to continue that.

I know come the summer things I'll look forward to the new season with excitement but everything's a bit of a downer at the moment

Third place (likely) and a Cup, it has been a success given where we were this time last year.

And looking ahead, Arne Slot (if it us to be him) looks a good fit; just listening to his interviews he appears to have the right personality for us.
