Maybe that was why he failed to sign Aubameyang. There were a lot of speculations about Klopp signing him.
That's where the "Klopp doesn't like to go back" stuff covers from, he said it when asked about the links to Pierre
I can’t believe that Klopp would never buy anyone he’s already managed; if the right player came up and fits the team perfectly, he’d sign them. The longer he’s with us, the less likely that will be anyway....
Philippe Coutinho not loved at Barcelona like he was at Liverpool, says Phil Thompson https://www.skysports.com/football/...a-like-he-was-at-liverpool-says-phil-thompson
It's all rumours. Some say the pair fell out at Dortmund. Some say when klopp commented about one nutter is enough was referring to sahko and aubameyang. In any event... aubameyang is at arsenal now and showed why he was brilliant for klopp and dortmund
Lots of managers go straight for players they've had before. Klopp hasn't. There have been several players who we maybe could have used but not gone for. So up until now, he's been as good as his word. Not saying you've said differently
There's one key difference between lfc and Dortmund. Dortmund technical director called the shots. However until klopp left no players like gotze returned to Dortmund so perhaps he's been consistent there. He does have quite a record in terms of players signed Dortmund list is some list.. our list is some list too. He can certainly pick players (along with a strong team of recruiters) We know for facts mane, salah, vvd, alisson were his direct must haves. He said ox was a long time admiration. Keita was another. His first ask at off was Matip and we got him on precontract within 3 months of klopp arriving. He's said Robertson and fabinho were recommended by the team as was grujic. So.... firmino... who knows, that's wild speculation and conspiracy. Alisson klopp Taa home grown Matip klopp Vvd klopp Robertson team Fabinho team Ox klopp Keita klopp Mane klopp Firmino team Salah?? Don't know Others Gomez. Recommended by 'Driscoll milner. Team. Henderson. comolli Windy. Klopp. Origi. Team Klopps record is very impressive for us. Only karius seems a big error. The tats, hair and shades kind of didn't say attitude but the dodgy keeping was shocking. Nobody's perfect
Just checked - Subotic. Apparently he was offered him at Liverpool but turned him down for ...... Virgil.
from Mainz is a big step up. tbh anyone who offered klopp robotic when the guy was well past it proves they know what all about football good job klopp made them pay the money.
He signed 51 players at Mainz - but wait for it - sum total €10m !! 32 players at Dortmund - €185,575,000 total spend in 7 years. Liverpool- 13 players - total €442,750,000 in 4 years. They're conservative numbers by any standard. He wants who he wants but he genuinely also wants value for money. (Sorry figures are in € - can't be bothered converting)
Had a very good season. Versatile, young, works hard for the team, has pace and he can finish too. Anyone think he'd make a good option for us? Would be expensive though
