From what I remember of the klopp quote you are sort of taking it out of context I think he was referring to the buying of pogba when it was not needed nor as it transpired wanted by the manager. Klopp from what I recall always stated that he would wait for the right player then do what it takes to get him. He tried to cheap option it with Karius #thatwentwell I think the Fekir deal was done by the performnce of Karius against Tranmere ? I think Klopp finally realised what every man and his dog knew which was Karius was not going to recover from the CL final easily and needed replacing. The rest as they say is history. That just mho
Yep you are right But as I recall didn’t Karius make an awesome save enroute to the final which enabled us to be there Either way Klopp got there in the end and Tbf to Klopp he was trying with the lad so... once marcello got freed in up in that game there was only ever gonna be one winner. He was staying put until Salah went off then he had free reign
BBC Salford determined to make 6th the new 4th. The battle for the best of the rest" "If you presume Liverpool, Manchester City, Tottenham, Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United are going to fill the top six Premier League slots, then this match could be crucial in the reckoning of who is best of the rest." I presume the League title, Champions League placings and the Europa League place is between the the top 5 clubs which puts Manchester United fighting for The Best Or The Rest title with Everton, Leicester and others.
my favourite bit was that ex PL ref they have on Sky ( Hackett ?) said "yellow was the correct decision as he didn't lead with his foot" . I'm still trying to imagine what he thinks the appendage at the end of his leg is called
BBC salford at their Manu loving best again; 16 mins Post update Everton 0-0 Leicester Everton have clocked up a passing accuracy of 68.9% in the first 15 minutes. Leicester have managed even less with 64.6%. By way of comparison Manchester United managed 90.7% in their 4-1 win over Bournemouth on Sunday. Even the defeated Cherries were on target with 80% of their attempts.
What a **** game with no atmosphere what so ever...I keep thinking is a closed doors game until you see there is some crowd (not full) Let's hope with the new stadium they sort the acoustics out and it generates some sound...
Combination of Football fatigue, New Years day and belt tightening. Need a little break. Shouldn't have been midweek games this week, just weekend, or remove the one from last week. Play a game earlier in the season instead.
Dreadful match. A match between 2 typical mid table sides with very little hope of top 6 or very little relegation worries.
think he is just trying to fit in with the outfield players as the standard of passing in this game is frankly laughable .
