What if the cap keeps the sun out of his eyes so he can actually see our players...unlike Rodgers who obviously couldn't Maybe if BR had worn a cap we would have won the league....
BVB We heard the news today, oh boy! All the best at The Kop, Jürgen Klopp! All the best at @lfc! #klopplfc please log in to view this image
Well pleased he has signed! Wasn't sure we could still attract people of this calibre. Good intent by the board and hopefully we can expect a better calibre of player. Pay money for established/ reasonably established players instead of paying maximum for potential which equates often, remarkably, to the same value. Pleased! Welcome aboard.
That makes me laugh about the time Sam Allardyce nearly signed Lewandowski but the ash cloud from Iceland meant he couldn't come over and he ended up signing for Dortmund
I may come to regret this post so I will add that its a one step at a time and whats happens will happen. However... Thinking back to all the managerial appointments we've made in the past, I don't think I've ever been as happy or excited by an appointment before. I started watching Liverpool properly towards the end of Souness' reign and can't really recall Evans' appointment. I remember Houllier coming in but I thought the shared manager idea was really ****ing stupid and then I was gutted to see Roy leave so there was never any excitement attached to that change for me. When Rafa arrived I knew nothing about him. I recall us being linked to both Rafa and Mourinho (who had just won the CL with Porto) and I can remember being disappointed that we didn't get Jose (hindsight eh). I was ecited about us getting Rafa but knowing nothing about him it wasn't massive. Kenny coming back was awesome but it was mainly sentiment rather than an belief that we could get back to winning things. The less said about Woy the better. I never wanted Rodgers and like with Kenny, I didn't believe he'd get us were we wanted to be; I started to believe for a time, the exciting football and second place help. This is the first time we've appointed someone that as a high reputation that I know about and brings expectation of winning with him. I am truly looking forward to the next chapter, the Klopp chapter if you will. I think he will bring exactly what I want in a football team; team ethic, passion and a strong desire to win match with good passing in a attacking style. #excited #wheresthetissues
Pretty much. I love to imagine that it fuels Allardyce's sense of injustice at the fact he hasn't been given a big managerial job yet.
Agree with most ofthat We did win with Kenny, it didnt work out in the long run though but hesteadied us after the dark dark days of Woy and we did well in the cups I was well exccited to get Rafa, hs Valencia team were like a welloiled machine and wanted him to getus likethat But Im moreexcited by this appointment, definitely
Very good appointment imo, I can see this having longevity too. He's a good age, buys into the culture of the club, will attract high calibre players and importantly, he's got a personality. The best compliment I can give him as a rival fan is that I would rather Liverpool hadn't been able to acquire his services. Saving grace being he has a lot of work to do...
