I think Klopp will get L'pool to 2nd comfortably. Then its down to the board to back him further. Chelsea to remain at the top for a wee while, L'pool 2nd or 3rd depending on how well Spurs do going forward.

After that... Utd andEverton to grow whilst Arsenal fade. Who gets 4th? One of those, with an expectation it will be Jose sorting Utd out.

Sorry would you prefer we allowed you post remarks about people's intelligence because they disagree with your opinion ?!

This thread over the last couple of weeks is full of threats and insults along with multiple cheap digs - whilst me and Sean may post passionately about our clubs at least we do it with respect and don't resort to insulting each other.

I'm really sorry for talking about football on the football thread

So you think making the same points over and over again about Wenger is posting passionately🙈

How can you not be bored by it?
Ok Wenger as had his day at Arsenal,I agree.
But obviously Sawtooth doesn't.
Just move on 👍🏻
Are you just hoping that you can eventually bore the life out of ST so that he agrees with you?

I could agree with this but only if Liverpool spend well and big enough and bring in a quality bench as they'd then be playing more matches than they are now and we are already seeing tiredness & injuries and along with suspensions there isn't enough quality in reserve to compete across the board, imo.

Where's City 🤔

I gave you some facts & figures a bit back after doing some research, yes Klopp won in Germany with Dortmund but they never really improved stats wise that much, Bayern faltered for 2 years and Klopps Dortmund's stepped in, but then Dortmund really struggled then for a while when Bayern started dominating again.

I personally don't think he's a long term manager, he has his way of going things and that will work short term, without a strong squad with quality on the bench to support his style it's a short spurt success without huge investment, do that and yes, you could have a winner!

Improved stats wise ?

The only stat that mattered was the one that said - title x2 , he won back to back titles with them plus getting to a CL Final

Would you downgrade Conte Italian league wins because it's pretty much a one team league now and Conte won his title with that team

Is Klopp long term ? Who knows - he may want to move on after a couple of years or he may feel at home at stay on ? No idea but i do know it's tthe best prospect for a great future we have had for a while now

I think you need to read my post properly, of course he would possibly go if they came knocking, but if you take the time to read my reply, I asked why would they (Bayern), I don't think they would.

I did and it's why I expanded it to the other top clubs in Europe. I don't think Bayern will call nor will the German FA but in either case he'd go. Why not as they are the two best jobs in his home country.

I don't really care whether or not people agree or disagree with my opinion.
I also have no probs with you or Sean posting your respective opinions .................. it's just the regularity of the same points that is getting a bit tedious.
We know where you both stand regarding Wenger, and for what it's worth I totally agree with you on this, but neither of you are going to change the other's mind so please just let it go.
Maybe review the argument at the end of the season when you both finish outside the top four :whistle:.

Oh, and if I've insulted or name called anybody I apologise, although I can't recall doing so.

I NEVER said he wouldn't go because I wasn't commenting on that, I said WHY would Bayern come calling when I personally don't think he did enough at Dortmund, ok I know he won 2 titles when Bayern had a 2 year wobble for whatever reason but then they came back and dominated again and Dortmund fell a away.

But for arguments sake and my last word on the matter, yes if Bayern or his country came knocking of course he would go, but I never questioned that.

oops!

City to fight for 4th. Its an old squad and a dodgy, flaky manager. I think they'll have another manager in a season or so. Pep doesn't seem to cope with the Prem very well.

Pep has already told, Clichy, Sagna, Navas, YaYa, Zabaleta and a couple of others they ha three months to prove they are worthy of a new contract.
Ie, they will soon be gone. He is coping very well, 3 rd with a game in hand, last eight in FA cup and close to last eight in Champs league with an aging squad. Most fans are more than happy with Pep. Will be here for a bit yet.
if he is fighting for 4th it is with Liverpool and spuds, coz Utd and Arsenal are out of it.

This is true you did but all the others never.

Singing when your winning springs to mind

I agree meets are definitely about playing golf and having fun I don't think I have ever said different after all I have been on enough to know what goes on.

I have actually played with people who have been on the forum all round and have also posted whilst playing.

I believe I asked you before if you some signal or none it doesn't really matter though as I believe we can all see with our own eyes posters sometimes only post when it suits and there's no problem with that,just don't hide behind excuses when someone picks up on it.

We can see it goes on and this weekend is just another example.

Name, names.

If its directed at me (amongst others), you will see from this thread that I have hardly posted in the last few months, apart from on one subject that I couldn't let pass.

In one I was referred to as "your kind", amongst other things - it wasn't elaborated on, although the poster was given ample opportunity.

"My kind" were also called Bindippers and told to get back to our holes on the day that Man U won their most recent trophy.

Do you not stop to ask why I/we should carry on when this is becoming common?

I joined this forum to talk about golf, and throughout 6 years I have made loads of true friends, and lots of buddies. I didnt join it to make enemies, but that list is getting longer, and mainly down to this thread.

You accuse us Liverpool fans about hiding when it suits - we've only won one trophy in 5 years, so hardly riding the glory years, and yet 4-5 of us have been more than regular posters over them years. You may also find that some United fans have found their way to this thread a lot more than the previous 3 years........

I may carry on with it, as genuinely still read it, as enjoy different perspectives on matches, but seriously trying hard not to post, due to the above reasons. I wish I had Blue in Munich's willpower, as he is someone who is sorely missed on here, and i would gladly debate footy with him till the cows come home, given the chance. I met Papas for the first time last week, and was made up to meet him, as he is also a top bloke on here.

Maybe, if you werent trying to bait LiverpoolPhil as much, due to your unrequited love affair, your post would get more credence.

So, thats my excuse.

StuC - your right on him though, he just bails when it doesnt suit.;)

Don't worry, you're not. Pete is though.

:rofl:

Sorry were people criticising some Liverpool posters because they didn't post after the Leicester match ?!

They do know we were at a meet in a pub socialising with other forummers and talking to them about it over the days ! I guess we need to get the priorities straight and forget the social conversations we were having and jump onto the smart phones and post on the thread instead.
