Your stand is still ste though. hehe
It's all about capacity these days though isn't it. You may not care for the looks but at least it's a modern facility and revenue booster.

Behave, at 22-23 most players have shown whether or not they're going to reach a high level or not and most will be just 2-3 years from their peak. Very few players peak at 28 or older.

It's not like Jose is bringing through U21 kids from academies is it?! How much game time do you expect Rushford to get this season? Maybe a few games in the Carling and FA Cups and maybe a game when you inevitably crash into the Europa League.

Behave?

You have cited Klopp as the lord of bringing through youth and in his second season he is buying player the same age or older than players Jose is buying in his first (when he has barely had a chance to review our academy)

So is Pogba classed as a worldie now then? I am so confused as we've been told for months by you lot that he is nothing like a worldie and we got ripped off, so which is it?

We've already crashed into the Europa League, LvG saw to that.

I dont particularly think Klopp has done or is doing a bad job with your club or the signings (although the Wijnaldum signing does still baffle me) but to cite him as some youth leader whilst slating Jose in the same breath is just nonsense

Actually my comment about Klopp was about cultivating players. I didn't say youth. Klopp is someone who works with players and is cited for bringing out the best in them. It also means he'll stick with players through bad patches and you have to have patience whilst players learn from him - something some might view as a bad thing. Take for instance Lovren - he's not young but I think we'd all agree on here that Klopp is beginning to get the best from him. I can only hope he does the same with Henderson and Moreno.

Jose rightly doesn't have a reputation for cultivating players, either you perform in his teams or your out. Hence the comments I made about Rashford - he's an exciting prospect but his game time will be limited under Jose because he's young and therefore liable to make mistakes.

I love how everyone is an expert on the career of a player they hadn't heard of 18 months ago, but ok, I assume in your expert opinion (UEFA badges yeah?) that you think an 18 year old should be leading the line for Utd? Not looked after, eased in and get some experience in certain games, but run into the ground ala Micky Owen?

How many minutes will Jurgen or Conte give to 18 year olds this season?

Watching West ham in there new ground I'm so glad we didn't move
Yes be nice to have a fancy new stadium etc but I'm yet to see one work atmosphere wise
Upton ground used to be an awful place to go too now I think most teams will hope for a win at their new ground.
It's so quiet, I bet the groups of noisy fans have been split up

What do you mean rumours? He got injured on the first day of the season and is out till after the international break.

Can't be true. After all he did win a Fields Medal for his break through work on instant regenerative cells.

It doesn't matter - he's so amazing, he's probably cloned a perfect replica for just such an eventuality...

He'll probably just use his Jedi mind control to stop the backup keeper conceding.

Klopp didn't buy anyone in his first window. He was still assessing his squad. This is his first active window and it isn't even fking over yet you berk!!

Here's some good advice:- never talk about something you know nothing about.
EDIT: Can't be bothered to continue this discussion with internet 'football pundits'

Anyone see the Klopp interview tonight? Think the ex-Spurs player was in awe the whole time. Understandably of course.

Great quote by Klopp laugh

Klopp: "Ask all my offensive midfielders what’s your favourite position and they’d say ‘No 10’ but no-one knows what a 10 is."

“It’s the most intensive defending position in football because you are involved in fking everything."
