Could have been 8 and it wouldn't be undeserved. Fantastic, whilst playing in 2nd gear. I can't get enough of this side, but seeing Kloppo there in the end, making the heart with his hand, f*** me this is going to be emotional all the way until the end

Yeah no CL with Klopp is a massive disappointment for me, would loved another run and chance to win Big Ears with him one last time

Is there a multiverse we can go to where Klopp will still be our manager

Perhaps he isn't but taking a job you know you're not ready for, can't lead to anything good overall. Failure at a top club could derail his aspirations down the line even more so, look at Gerrard.

Yes. Don't think the CL has anything to do with it, he's genuinely burned out, and his example of being a top sports car, but only him being able to see that he's running out of fuel is the best summary of the situation.

- He could be fairly objective and realistic about his current abilities as a coach and manager, and whether or not he would be able to take over. As mentioned before, he was a complete failure in his last managerial stint before he came back to us as Jurgen's assistant. More than anyone, he knows what it takes to motivate the players, lead them, and prepare all other aspects on a day to day basis. More so, he'd be replacing one of the greatest and most influential people in the club's history, thats a huge task, and brings endless amounts of pressure.

Feels like an eternity ago when we had someone else but Klopp as manager. I'm disappointed we won't have him for just one more CL campaign.

It's not true, Jurgen even addressed Jose Enrique in the press conference

Yeah I agree, the time between him announcing it end of season and start of new season would have been more difficult than this is already going to be.

Or he genuinely doesn't want the job or the club didn't want to go in that direction. Joyce saying Alonso is a candidate

Stevie Warnock?

That's another thing I forgot to mention, Houllier as defensive as he was, never coached players into cheating and diving, using every dirty trick in the book. Simeone does exactly that

I believe they were told today

Trent,Robbo,Kostas,Szobo,Thiago, all pictured in training today

I don't think he has the personality and the leadership to take over Jurgen, tactically sure, but everything else I don't believe so. Dont forget when he went to Holland to be a manager, it went t*** up completely before he came back to be Jurgen's #2

Mentioned Jose Enrique and said hes basically talking nonsense "No other English Club ever! Even if I have nothing to eat"

Hard to do that if the man himself hasn't let everyone else know, leaks are impossible to stop in most cases. They gave him the time to do it in his own way.

If you listen and read what he said, its completely rational from his perspective. He's earned the right to do it on his terms. League position has nothing to do with something that has an impact on the club long standing, and the people working with and under him. If anything it's giving us more time to find a replacement rather than doing it in the summer before the season starts.

There's more to it than just that. Otherwise we'd have Mourinho years back.

Well I imagine it would be difficult to try to get someone during that time, while Klopp hadn't announced it yet. It's not exactly last minute.

Of course, but we weren't in a position like this when we hired Houllier, coming off a manager who had a style of play, won everything, and our immediate successor was the exact opposite.

Telegraph reporting there is no successor at this moment, club wants to hire sporting director first.

With all due respect, going from Klopps football to Houlliers/Simeone's is like trading a Ferrari for a Toyota.

Klopp presser in 30 mins.

Simeones style of football is everything we aren't. I can't see it
