Garth has shown time and time again that he knows **** all about anything. What I take exception to is that he gets paid to write his nonsense.
"The convention is we shake hands immediately after a game because it brings closure to the occasion, and it starts with the managers. "The game's conventions are bigger than any manager or player, and if either can't be bothered to perform the duty, I suggest they find another profession that can afford their bad manners."
Funnily enough I've never seen Darth Crooks complain about the many non handshakes from Wenger and Mourinho and others, maybe he prefers stoic kind of managers that sit there arms folded for 90 minutes, Klopp is part of the entertainment (maybe not voluntarily) and his goal celebrations will continue unless the opposition keep our players from scoring. Anyway, Firmino had a great game Darth don't you think.
If Hughton really was upset at Klopp's goal celebrations, wait till he plays Chelsea and gets some of this ..... please log in to view this image
He's useless. Half the time he has players out of position in his TOTW. He obviously doesn't watch all of the games and just picks the stand-out players in the match report and tries to shoe-horn them into a team formation. I'm not just criticising him because he's slagging off Klopp either. Coutinho's goal was cheeky and inventive, but it's not as though it's never been done before yet Crooks describes it as though it was something previously unheard of. Then he writes this: So, if the ball flies over a static wall and into the net then everyone will criticise them for staying rooted. He really hasn't a clue. And then there's the horrible Americanism - I'd shoot him for that alone.
Thing is, he sits there on Saturdays at full time with an opinion on the all premier league games that have just ended like he's watched them all, it's obvious that there is a wall of TV's off camera and they glance at all games in turn, how can anyone truly believe they have the ability to analyse maybe five or six games and give a true accurate opinion on them all.
Crookes TOTW is an embarrassment of a column - he usually picks anyone who has scored a goal. Seperarely, I don’t think enough was made of Trent’s block when it was 3-1. So easily could have been 3-2 but in 14 seconds, we made it 4-1. Key moments are going our way recently.
yup. fill our boots as long as our luck is in imo... if we can scape into January and get a couple players (yeah I know I know) we can get into the business end of the season in a good place to race arsenal and spurs.
I googled Garth crooks and Klopp after seeing this yesterday to see if anyone had commented on it elsewhere and there was an article from October time I think where he was saying we should sack Klopp and get ancelotti because Klopp will never win ya the title blah blah blah. I thi k he has a vendetta against him for some reason lol
I don’t even think he reds match report for standout. Just picks anyone that’s scored a goal. It’s not often he has a team with a player that hasn’t scored in.
