    Seriously the man is losing it and seems under real pressure.
    I get the impression his minimum target every season is to get CL football. He has already said twice this season in a snarling/laughing kind of way "maybe i should get the sack for a bad season".
    Not really the words or actions of a man in calm control.

    Nah
    I don’t think he is unravelling
    I think he trying a different way of trying to put pressure on PGMOL
    This isnt a dig but oppo fans could have made similar comments about Fergie - I reckon these top level managers know EXACTLY. what they are doing and saying most of the time.

    all rivalries aside the state of officiating in uk is diabolical

    has been for a long time

    there could have been a number of serious injuries in todays game
    Too many to list
    Many of them were avoidable if the team officiating had got their **** in order.

    for anyone who doesn’t like Klopp
    Highlight of day has to be him pulling his hamstring berating the fourth official

    which he should not have been doing
    But the foul on Salah going against him in the build up to the equaliser was what had caused that so I can see his point

    the particularly impartial commentary team spent a lot of effort stating Klopp should have seen red and he probably should have done - the irony being that when they panned over Mason was doing exactly the same to the fourth official but nada said

    it’s all a dance innit

    ftr I don’t think LFC deserved even to draw
    I thought Spurs deserved the win with a draw at best

    but that’s football innit

    Not really sure I could get Klopp counselling even if I wanted to

    It's not about the target bro. If he wants the sack it's bcos he knows Livpl haven't a pot to piss in for any rebuild and their fledgeling resurgence is over.

    He knows they're fcked. Partly his own fault for not getting rid of the dross earlier.

    Think there are a lot of Liverpool fans that agree with that - obviously in a more positive light
    Lots of the fans discuss that all the time

    I just trust him
    He knows how to build a team
    He has built more than one -
    So can he do it again
    Don’t see why not

    your ex - Fergie gave Klopp a glowing CV and I can see why
    Those two both preferred to build teams - however I would say fergie possessed a killer cold streak
    Klopp doesn’t seem to have that imho he prefers to treat his players like adults (not all but in general) not kids

    Not sure why rival fans always want to have dig at Klopp.

    If it wasn't for him and Arteta this season then City would win the League by 20 points every year.

    Plus the irony of Man U fans when they had the biggest whingebag ever not so long ago <whistle>

    I genuinely think the decisions on the pitch are just a trigger for bigger problems at the club he knows exist. You're limping along and getting progressively worse from one season to the next. The midfield and defence look average and he knows it aint going to get any better.

    We could put him in touch with the Samaritans <whistle>

    If you're competing for every single trophy the season before then not doing so the next is in fact progressively worse so well done on your analysis. <laugh>

    It’s a good point

    so difficult for anyone to challenge City over 38 games

    I know they have done now - but it’s not about them spending 95m on a player

    it’s more then spending 50-60m on every player in the squad - don’t get me wrong they have unearthed some bargains
    However the depth of quality I. Their squad is unrivalled
    So yeah - been great Arsenal have made a fist of it
    And Liverpool for a couple of others

    it’s a daunting task

    Eh? We've been competing at the top for 7 years now while you've been absolute dross and now that you've had one decent season still trailing behind your noisy neighbour by some distance (we've taken them to the wire and beaten them in this time) you've taken a stance that does not relate to your actual status. You've a long way to go with that squad whereas one or two signings and we'll be back competing again. Funny how the tables turn you sound like a Liverpool fan from a decade ago announcing next year is theirs.
