Defence!!!! For the love of god it's defence, not defense! (Unless you happen to be an American, then it's borderline acceptable even though it's a bdisation of the correct English spelling... )

Indeed, I'm surprised polar bear or what ever his name is hasn't slated the spelling mistake.


Obviously its nott impotent enough .

Oh, sorry, seems like autocorrect has being going crazy on my posts! I know I wrote it correctly at some point as it was going for the red underline previously, but seems like it has been changing it for me. This will be checked in future!

It was a fair point, based on this season. He's not a "come in and everything gets better quickly" guy, clearly. Or we don't have enough players who are that decent. Dunno.

I do know that by the end of next season we'll have a far better idea of what Klopp is capable of. But I would think this team is a long term project - a complete rebuild over 2-3 years. I hope he gets given that long.

I cant believe Klopp is even being questioned- jeesus
Give a guy some time to at least buy his own players, have a full season to train tactically rather than recovery sessions from playing every 3 days...

So Brendan is back in management at Celtic. At least he won't need to learn a new club anthem!

[mickk]

I expect him to do well now he's at a big club.

I agree, I think he'll do great at Celtic.


Though I think "big club is all relative". Celtic are a big club in the SPL, but not in Europe or on the World stage. Tottenham are a big club in Haringey but not in London.

Silly arse

Indeed sir, Good to see a manager of his quality joining us & all the other European power houses in the Champions league.


He's far too good to be managing a languishing mid table non Euro participating team.

[BossHogg]

So Rangers to win the SPL next year then?

Like ourselves Celtic have unquestionable European pedigree, good luck to Brendan.

They won it once, almost 50 years ago. Not quite sure that puts them in the same breath as Liverpool. They are a top Scottish club, obviously. I heard on the radio a day or 2 before it was announced that BR was still getting 5m a year from Liverpool. No wonder he smiles a lot.

don't we save about 10m by Celtic employing him?

Yeah but they will be playing the Bayerns & Barca's next season whilst you will be playing the Burton's & barnsley's.

Remind us again how many times Spuds have won the European Cup?

Not denying that - I was referring to the 2 clubs' respective records. As you know.
