EDIT: Of course, I also agree that Sadio should have a quality song too.

"all we need is Sadio Mane"  to the tune of Radio ga ga

[Son of Spion]

"all we need is Sadio Mane"  to the tune of Radio ga ga

That's an excellent shout.

A song hordes would love to join in with. The hand-claps would look and sound amazing too. 

You're on a roll here...

[afc tukrish]

"all we need is Sadio Mane"  to the tune of Radio ga ga

All we need is
Sadio Mane
Sadio goo goo
Sadio ga gaa

Lyrical brilliance, coupled with the requisite hilarity behind a good stadium song.

Credit where credit is goo goo...

[PaulF]

Sadio goal goals
Sadio pass pass

Surely?

[Ghost Town]

That's an excellent shout.

As a suggestion the Radio Gaga tune for Mané has been made many times on here and elsewhere. You'd think it has everything necessary to be picked up as a chant, but it never has. Thus is the mysterious nature of football songs, why some catch on and some don't.

[Pie Eyed]

Ive often thought "I wish could be like Jurgen Klopp" to the tune of David Watts had the makings of a song

Thank you.

You just reminded me to look up the Matze Knop Jurgen Klopp song on YouTube.

I'd almost forgotten how much fun it is.

Klopp post match conference : www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKgN-aJkdCU

The twat from Africa trying to make a mountain out of a molehill with the african cup of nations question. Around 5min in.

It's called an ironic statement. Look it up.

Yeah he made a fool out of himself and should apologise really, but he won’t of course. It was clear listening to Kloppo what he meant. 

The ‘journalist’ was crowing about it on his Twitter too

the best is all the clowns trying to defend the "journalist" so they can point score.

[markmywords]

Assuming Klopp's recollection is accurate, he handled it masterfully, his tone and his manner were very good.  I was quite angry listening to it, but Klopp kept his cool

[KurtVerbose]

Just a dick head trying to make a name for himself.

[Fitzy.]

“Just the small matter of <insert fixture>” ; this is common parlance when referring to an important match. It’s ironic and idiomatic.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/the%20little%20matter Klopp used the correct dictionary definition which somehow the journalist doesn't know about.
Rob Demovsky the ESPN beat writer for GB packers after the Aaron Rodgers press conference when he used "Immunized" legit said he used Webster to check to know how to write it.

[royhendo]

“GB News” was it? He might not be back.

[Machae]

Why do they even let these no marks in to begin with, ban him for being an absolute bellend

[Caston]

No mark journalist gets put in his place but obviously loving the attention he’s getting.

[Dave D]

Was this bloke really a journalist? He deliberately misquotes a person and then aggressively talks over them when they're trying to give their answer. Holy fuck, that's enough to get you blacklisted right there, even giving him the benefit of the doubt by believing he's just a dumb c*nt. Someone from the club needs to have a word with him. 

[Dim Glas]

Some massive bellends in the comments as well

But plenty pointing out to those few bellends how wrong the journalist was and how wrong they are.

He’s embarrassed himself.

Had his arse handed to him by Klopp. Comments there saying Klopp should have apologised. Like fuck he should, Klopp the one that was angry for having his words twisted.

The way he tried to extend that to "an insult to Africa" and its people was just shameful. What a waster of air.

[Mister Flip Flop]

I'm convinced some people just sit around looking for stuff to be offended by to be honest. It's a curse on the modern world.

A simple shut up you twat would have been a worthy response by Jurgen.

Yes, the poor guy completely misunderstood! When Rafa called Everton "a little club" he meant it was little. When Jurgen said the African Nations Cup was "a little tournament" he meant that it was (unfortunately) rather large. As you say, irony. Straight past the guy's head.

[Gods_Left_Boot]

To be fair, if anyone's ever had the "privilege" to listen to that guy's questions in other pre-CL pressers, it's quite obvious that he's not exactly the sharpest tool in the box.

[Dim Glas]

That ‘journo’ is still doubling down, retweeting every comment complimenting him from the minority who also misunderstood Kloppo’s original comment 

Reckon he could do with being given a break from his UEFA accreditation for a bit. The standard of questions generally in these press conferences is poor, this sort of lying, attention seeking BS is the last thing they need.

[Ghost Town]

I know nothing about the questioner so this is just a guess, but if English isn't his first language it's possible that he isn't up to speed with some of the more nuanced idiomatic usages. No matter how proficient a speaker sounds with straighforward word choice, ordering and grammar, the idiomatic nuances are often the last things to be mastered, and very often such nuances are never fully mastered.

That doesn't, however, excuse what seems a pretty blatent attempt at manufacturing a controversy and nor does it explain why he doesn't acknowledge his misunderstanding once it is explained to him. All languages have their own idiomatic nuances so no-one should find the notion alien, even if they aren't always familiar with them in a non-first language.

[Sangria]

I enjoyed some of redcafe's responses to the controversy.

"Klopp should be forced to resign and serve a minimum period of 3 years as United manager working under Woody"

"Salah and Mane should quit Liverpool in protest.

Naby Keita can stay though, no issue in that."

"Van Dijk and Fabinho should quit in solidarity with Salah and Mane as well"

It feels good when our rivals are envious of our current situation.

Wouldn't make a name for himself then though, would he?

[Morgana]

Exactly. He's gonna milk this fake controversy for all it's worth, and if that doesn't work he'll start pushing rumours that Klopp is a racist who hates Africans. These dickheads are liars, plain and simple. He knows he fucked up with that misinterpretation of Klopp's words, but he'll keep digging his heels in because that's what people like him do.

[lamonti]

Jürgen doesn’t really want a song. Let’s get Sadio a memorable one.

Radio Gaga for Sadio - been crying out for it for years.

[lamonti]

Sadio, it's truuuuuuuuue
The Kop always love youuuuuuu

Klopp should have said, yeah sorry i didn't mean little, i meant shite. Next!!.
