Damn...shots fired.

He was on great form tonight. The mics were a bit fuzzy, but I think he took the piss out of Burnley as well.

They put a clip on their twitter of that, all giddy thinking they had great content  ::)

Whereas the reaction of Jürgen just shows what he thinks of them - the head-shake at their childishness. Imagine having the cameraman do laps around his stood there, and thinking it’s a professional way to behave.

Watching the pre-match Bullshit.

TNT sports have a stupid conversation going on between Crouch and Ferdinand about the value of JK watching the opposition warm up. It is embarassing - they are questioning the value of it in ear shot of Kloppo, whose face says it all about what he thinks of the value of their "insight".

Football managers - have to be some of the most professional people that have to listen to amateur opinion and suck it up.

Personally, I am hoping for another Klopp mike drop today.
What could he be doing that's of more value. The warm up drills are all expertly run by coaches.
He watches most warm ups. It probably pysches out some of their players. And he's seen so many and the games that follow, that he almost certainly picks up something about the opposition that he couldn't get from elsewhere.
Would love to hear , once he's retired, what he's usually thinking when watching the warm ups.

A random post. But sometimes I just like to sit back and appreciate he is here. There will be a day he no longer manages this club. It’s just great as of this moment, as the clock on my wall ticks - we are living in a period where this man is managing our club.

No one on rawk needs reminding of this. But its great just to drink-in this reality.

It’s a very Paisley trait, watching the opposition players to find that tiny problem that we can use to our advantage.

Liverpool are top of the Premier League.

We state it so baldly there because, well, this feels like something that isn’t really being talked about a great deal and it’s genuinely quite hard to imagine how the football climate in this country in 2023 can create a situation where Liverpool are top of the league and nobody’s really talking about it.

At this stage last season we were hearing an awful lot about Arsenal being top of the league. We’ve already this season heard a huge amount about Tottenham being top of the league. Liverpool go top and… nobody really seems that interested in it.

That’s a strange thing, isn’t it? Liverpool, the one club with the one manager who has managed to go toe-to-toe with Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City and last the pace, are currently out in front and it’s not really being treated as a particularly significant moment in the season.

Amazing what Kloppo's been able to do this season. Definitely flexxing his tactics-muscle a lot more this season- especially with regard to the subs- the tactics at Newcastle were just genius:

He has never offered much attacking or creative output. He's obviously a player who can be, if he isn't yet a true 6, moulded to become one. And Chelsea are playing a double pivot anyway right? That's exactly what he did at Brighton.

Obviously what Klopp said is hilarious and on the outcomes thus far we've massively dodged a bullet. And Klopp wouldn't say this because it'd sound arrogant, but never underestimate the difference playing in a competent setup under Klopp's management can make.

The fact that he's managed to integrate a whole new midfield and still be top of the league is mind boggling! We really do have the best manager in world football and to top it off he's actually a good person too!

Would love him to sign a new contract, but if he decides to take time off after his contract finishes I could understand why.

Im sure Caicedo would have done better here.
But when you pay 110M you expect someone who isnt just very good at his role, but who can lift players around him. Like VVD or Salah. Such players shouldnt need exactly the right tactics or team mates to shine

Yeah he would. It's an establish team with clear tactics and positions, goals and vision- it would just have been a case of getting up to speed and slotting in.

It's actually crazy how many people write off Liverpool aka the only team to beat City to the league in 6 years - and not a one off, coming close twice in that period if it wasn't for some serious corruption and cheating.

My only guess is that the Man United loving media don't want to see us get back equal with them on league titles and potentially overtake them in the coming years.
