[Football] Jurgen Klopp ….stepping down at end of 23/24 season

[Farehamseagull]

Bored of it already.

Sky Sports have asked everyone possible about it, then repeat every 10 minutes, BBC News, Talk Sport, BBC radio, Porn Hub it's everywhere.

Porn Hub? With those teeth?!

Nah - Alsonso will follow the money return to his old haunt …RDZ won’t play the Klopp way. He’ll probably go for Pep’s job when it becomes vacant.

 

[Yes Chef]

Interesting, I was at the Bayern Munich v Union Berlin game on Wednesday, and was having a beer with a few of their supporters. They can't stand Tuchel (and de Ligt, randomly) and were convinced Klopp was joining them. I sort of dismissed it, but perhaps there was something in it.

FFS lead story on the bbc news at one - is this really the biggest thing happening in the world right now?

Sadly, no it isn't

Nipped out at lunch and had TS on the radio. Jim is acting like he is dead.

I spose "Man quits stressful job after 9 years" doesn't have the same hyperbole.

Here's a flavour in just 5 minutes where every last ounce was milked out of it :

"Significant day for football all over the world"
"Great man"

Then Jimmy Corkhill came on the radio and cried.

Good grief

One of White's silly comments was effectively, this will be last time Liverpool play Norwich in the FAC under JK. Cue dozens more silly landmarks in the next 4 months.

I remember the same for Fergie.

Surely going to be Alonso?

announcing his departure now is just weird.....i mean why would ya ..? he's on for the quadruple ..!!

So we can have months of “Let’s do it for Jurgen” bullshit.

well yeah..!

 

[HeaviestTed]

sadly I think they would be very tempted by De Zerbi and vice versa

This is the first time I’ve been nervous of him leaving!

 

[jackalbion]

Be a good laugh if he's just done this to encourage the players and then stay lmao.

 

[trueblue]

His last game could be the Europa Cup Final.......

When their next manager beats them to win the trophy?

 

[Colonel Mustard]

Don’t think it will be months in my opinion Liverpool will want to name the new guy asap

It's surely very unlikely that they’ll name a successor soon. It would be incredibly disruptive. I’d expect them to wait till the end of the season to make a formal announcement though no doubt there’ll be a ton of pointless speculation until they do.

Will there be a minutes silence at all games this weekend ?

I mean Gurbanov has done a great job at Qarabag but I'm not sure he's quite ready for the Liverpool job...




Yes of course I had to google Qarabag manager!

 

[TomandJerry]

Will there be a minutes silence at all games this weekend ?

Every weekend until he's officially gone, apparently.

 

[el punal]

I’ve been reading RAWK (Red and White Kop), Liverpool’s fans forum. Okay, not all million pages about Klopp but a fair few. If it’s any hopeful sign, I didn’t notice de Zerbi’s name mentioned at all about being a replacement for Klopp. Many posters are reckoning on Alonso stepping up to the plate. Let’s hope that that is the case.

 

[Easy 10]

I would certainly assume Liverpool will be wearing black armbands for the rest of the season.

Probably Klopp t-shirts too, for their pre-match warmups. And a statue somewhere.

Potter rubbing his hands with glee!

Has he always wanted to live in Leverkusen?
