I think Bobby is on the wind up, don't give the ****er an inch. He's infiltrated and gained out trust and is just waiting for his moment. Don't worry he won't be able to read this, Chavs can't read.
Of course he has lost his rag. He's has basically gone personal on Gary Neville (to be fair Phil Nevilles comments were pretty bad telling karius to shut it). He could have defended his player, said he's learning and he's looking good but been unlucky. Nope, instead he goes on the attack, basically saying why is neville even a pundit cause he's a **** manager and basically called neville a **** stirrer. That doesn't sound like someone whos being cool or the bigger man. someone fighting fire with fire against the media and we know the media never loses
to be fair, you all criticised karius for retaliating and saying he should do his talking on the pitch. Klopp comes out retaliating and everyone thinks he's all heroic. If Neville had been over the top then sure, i can see he might get criticized. There isn't 1 person on this board who thinks karius is doing a good job. Even Jimmy his greatest fan concedes he's being developed right now and isn't good enough yet
I think it's a typical Klopp comment, he's honest in his assessment of things and will react to the media, it doesn't mean he's lost it or that his answers are not thought. out.
The so called neutral BBC allowing a Neville brother to back his sibling regarding something said on a different channel. Keep your mouth shut', Neville tells Karius 11 Dec 2016 From the sectionFootball Phil Neville tells Loris Karius "keep your mouth shut and do your job", after the out-of-form Liverpool goalkeeper responded to criticism from his brother Gary Neville in a newspaper article by saying: "[Gary Neville] was a manager for a bit and now he is back to being an expert again."
Now it's getting more interesting.. https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...rothers-gary-phil-over-loris-karius-criticism
I was glad Karius responded and did say that from the off, his critics have been too harsh, just look at the **** ups Bravo is getting away with without much comment.
To be fair he does come across quite well on camera (only just listened to it) and klopp is quite sarcy and blunt. You can tell it has got to him (my conjecture) as he would normally coolie deflect it like he did when Sahko pissed him off in the LFC vid whereas here he's having a go back and as he likes to put it, creating headlines. These sorts of headlines are never positive as it's just shining the spotlight on Liverpool even more. Can you honestly say Neville has been on a deliberate crusade on Karius or been harsh on him? He even mentions stekelenberg as a dodgy keeper and guess what, theres been no uproar there
I would counter that by saying claudio bravo has been making loads of **** ups and i'm pretty sure he's been criticised. He gets **** every week cause the media love Joe Hart. He might not have had any direct criticism from Neville or Carragher for a while as i don't think City have been on Sky much where nevilles been doing the post match analysis?
I think Neville just got it back because Klopp felt someone had to and an ex Man Utd player getting it will gain favour with fans. I imagine that Klopp will now say no more on it and leave the media to enjoy their meal.
It does seem that Karius isn't permitted to give G Neville any stick when it comes to his **** managership in Spain. But he's fair game to him and his bro. #theydontlikeitupem
Klopps been just as blunt and sarky with other reporters before. blunter to0 the point of Kenny in fact lol. Never understood this "meltdown" stuff when a manager or player is just annoyed and expresses it. I can only assume those that think this have very little control of their emotions. .it's healthy to express annoyance . ..then move on...rather than sitting fuming, getting paranoid that everyone's out to get you...telling anyone who will listen every crazy conspiracy that pops in your head...oh no sorry..that's called "mind games " apparently....
It's not about Gary Nevilles time at Valencia though. Plenty took the piss out of neville and there has been banter on Sky Sports since he's been back about how **** he was on there. This is about Karius being criticised which is standard form and he's then having a go back and being personal to neville for whatever reason. Imagine if Mourinho came out and called Klopp a fraud for nearly relegating Dortmund. You'd think what a prick (not that you don't) and it would look even worse because mourinho is doing **** too. Karius should have just kept quiet and let his football do the talking
I haven't forgot Istanbul, he was great that night, but there is a reason why Rafa rushed out and replaced Dudek with Reina, he had been awful in the league that year. Dudek could be a fantastic keeper and a terrible keeper in back to back games.
Klopp is obviously trying to defend Karius. But I think he should have kept quiet rather than reacting and getting involved. Gary Neville will be chuckling as his job as a media personality is to get as many controversial issues as possible. Klopp on the other hand could have boxed himself in. Will he ever drop Karius now? Even if he makes 3 massive errors in the next game? Klopp would not want to be seen to give in to the nevilles and seen to swallow his pride would he? We are now stuck with Karius no matter what. Klopp has given the impression of being affected by what's being said about him and his players. This reminded me of Keegan's 'I would love it" rant. Not as eye catching and theatrical but similar in effect.showing he's been got at.
Bobby, first things first, Karius HAS been crap so far for us this season, secondly if Karius gets the hump about getting stick off Neville why the **** shouldn't he have the right to respond in kind? Its not like Neville was actually a great manager just like Marius isn't a great keeper, he just got a bit of payback. His brother jumping to his defence makes the pair of them look silly tbh.
Neville is a #joke His most recent article is about how Man Utd are better now than under Van Gaal when they had more points Okay lad #thetablelies
