Think it was the same with VVD at Southampton, Ugarde at Porto, Lewandowski at Bayern and probably many more. It was ok for Klopp to tap them up because if he's not allowed to we'll all have to listen to him cry in interviews again and everyone is sick of that.
Search Haslam deffo lost a girlfriend to a german or summin. Its the only explanation for his obsession with Klopp. Klopp this Klopp that It Never stops.
I used to work in Germany, really love the South there in particular, the average German I worked with or met was lovely tbh. It just seems that whilst many managers keep their counsel a bit more Klopp gets involved in making comments about what he thinks is "fair" and them gets very shirty when people call him out on it. All managers are a bit like this, I just find him to be more hypocritical than average.
He does have a tendency to whine more than other managers when things dont go his way. Spent too long in Liverpool. But No manager will ever beat Arsene "The opposition wont play the way we want them to" Wenger. He literally cried once because a team set out tactics to counter his teams play style.
That's a fair call regarding Wenger. It's also fair to highlight that it wouldn't stick in my head as much if he was actually a rubbish manager as he wouldn't be around for as long and it's easier to complain about things when you actually expect to be winning. Wenger was one of the best two managers in the league at that time and Klopp probably is currently. Still a big baby though.
LOL I remember his Black and decker speech! "BOM BOM BOM" And he coined the term, "park the bus" as well.
My favourite was after Mutu was banned for drug abuse and Jose came out for a Champions League interview. All anyone asked him about was Mutu and after a few minutes he stroppily complained that no-one was asking anything about the important match tomorrow. An interview then asked him about is and he simply said "I don't want to talk about it any more" and left. The guy is box office.
Ten hag took all of two months to cry about fixtures Eddie howe too. And didnt even have europe then All fukin cry babies But JurGeN KloPp tho!!!
I kinda get the complaints about fixtures, especially for Europa League teams. They do get shafted with the Thursday mid week games.
