Klopp - "You can't win without tactics ... but emotion makes the difference."

Hmmm. After Brendan's Brentspeak I was hoping more for a Paisley-type tactician who said little (Ancellotti, for instance) Really hope he doesn't turn out to be another blarney merchant.
 
Hopefully we'll steer clear from the over priced British talent too, and allow Klopp to promote from within in that regard. It is interesting to see how he operates on a bigger budget and arguably a less functional committee behind him. For me, right now, he ticks all the boxes and that's mainly because he has that experience of a big club and the highest level, it won't be a step up for him, like it was for Brendan.

Let's hope so. Personally, we shouldn't be spending big money on English talent - we should be signing them young and developing them like we've done with Sterling, Ibe and now Gomez.

But the German market is rife with talent, such a golden age. And the players will want to play for him. He will attract players with his name alone because he's so highly regarded.

Agree about the committee - hopefully they can deliver just like Zorc did and I think they will - Moreno, Can, Sakho, Coutinho, Sturridge, Origi, Markovic, Ilori are very talented players. But what makes Klopp special is his ability to develop them. He will take what he is given and get the most out of them.

No one had heard of Subotic, Hummels, Piszcek, Wiedenfeller, Gotze, Lewandowski, Kagawa, Sahin, Gundogan but he (and his team) made them stars. And I believe they all cost less than one Lallana.

Brendan thinks he's at Klopp's level. He's nowhere near.

With Klopp, we'll be getting a top class manager and a big name in the world of football.

There's an interview of Klopp saying he was confused as to why Rodgers was using Sahin as an attacking mid when his best position is deep mid.

There was another one where talking about kagawa and how he's such a naturally gifted player centrally and when United signed him and played him wide left he was shocked etc

@johnsonsbaby That's really harsh on Mignolet. He saved our bacon against Everton (how many 1v1 saves against Lukaku in that 3-3?), he saved that last min penalty from Walters to give us a 1-0 victory start of the season, he saved us against Villa the following week with a few superb saves from Benteke. And that's just off the top of my head, everyone was chuffed with Mignolet as far as I remember, it was only retrospectively that Neville started criticising him on sky sports for the Ramsey screamer and Demba Ba 1v1 even though it's very harsh to blame a keeper for a goal like Ramsey's & a one v one.
Conceding goals cost us the title and he let 50 in, granted the defence in front of him wasn't the best but I can think of City, Villa [H] and Norwich gaffes that gave points away that, had he not made the errors, we would have won the title.
 
I think you can.

So he flirted with Barcelona, it never happened and we cut our nose off to spite our face?? Who can blame him for wanting to play for his boyhood club which also happens to be one of the best in the world - all this after giving 9 years [and multiple Golden Glove seasons] to Liverpool for very little in return - I don't blame him one bit for wanting to go back to Spain.
We've been through all of this before, jb, and I don't intend to go round in circles. My point is that you can't refer to Reina's leaving without taking into account the circumstances that brought it about. I think the club did what seemed the right thing at the time- being wise after the event is easy.
 
Think he's suggesting that Swansea won a cup recently and we haven't for 7 years so technically Williams has lifted more silverware

That's exactly what he was suggesting but he's yet to master the art of typing what he means lol
