Anyone else feel like we just went from being a bit of a dysfunctional joke to a serious threat?

I really think we should be keeping our powder dry until January at the earliest.

sky sports new - press conf 10am

fking hell, the amount of hype is hilarious... as if we're somehow immediately going to stroll to a treble and win the ECL (that we're not even in)

Let's at least give the guy a few months before calling him the 2nd coming.

As I said earlier in the thread. If you pay them, they will come.

7 mil+ a year for the new manager. Not a bad gig at all that.

[bobo]

best manager you lot have had in a long time...

he will galvanize your club/fans ... very, very sharp guy. as a gooner i would have him over wenger any day of the week!

[jammy_basturd]

Great interview and his enthusiasm is definitely infectious.


Bild reporting we're paying him £7.4m (E10m) a year. Second highest paid manager in the Prem behind Mourinho apparently.

To be fair - the reports are that it is only that much if we actually win stuff and qualify for the champions league.

If we don't win, he'll have to put up with about £96K a week.

We mostly have been a joke under BR and he never helped with that, I am really excited about klopp but I cant see us being a threat for a long time though, but just happy to have a manager that comes across as if he knows what he is doing and has a decent track record.

This YNWA thing is bloody tedious. Every manager you've had in the last 5 years has heard this, it soon changed when performance wasn't adequate.

Brilliant. ..have you ever noticed on your attempt of a topic how many times 'the red ste' is said by grown adults. .trust me that is cringy

Then not to mention that song you lot play
'We don't care what the red ste say'

Wonder if you boys can get a win against this manager ? 12 and counting

Every club has its moronic fans with their moronic chants and sayings, some more than others, but its not something I would say. (well, not normally, I might have in the past perhaps, maybe once, but I was only like, doing this 'bantz' thing....)

Sure it was
And im sure you dont sing that god awful cringy song when your boys come out too ?

[RedTrident]

I think Klopp is the right appointment.

Dalglish was the right appointment for the short term but the wrong one for the long term.

Rodgers was a car crash that was disguised by Suarez for a season.

Klopp knows his football and we'll see an immediate improvement.

If you look at what we've paid people like Joe Cole and Glenn Johnson in the past, if this guy lives up to only half the expectation we can still file his wages under 'bargain'.

I go to matches with the same regularity of Everton Cup final appearances so that would be a no then.

No one has said we will win the league. It is simply the start of what feels like it could be an exciting new era; a new manager always bring new hope and if as fans you cannot be excited by that, maybe we just all sit here glib and silent and if anyone shows a modicum of hope or excitement, we should just pi$$ on it.

SMH.

How dare we get excited about football - crikey

If football is not meant to give you a buzz then why bother? surely its why we watch the game, pay the money, get so passionate - its something we love and at this moment in time LFC fans are more than excited about the signing of a world class manager - so understandably there is a lot of excitement right now as like most LFC fans I didnt think we were able to attract someone like Klopp anymore.

[DSLiverpool]

So is the Rub Kaz game a flag day ? I dont think I have been so excited since we were 5 up at Anfield against the Arse ! Klopp Army!

Indeed.

The NORMAL ONE - no pretensions, no obvious ego, just a great confidence (there is a difference Maureen), how refreshing for a top-level manager ...

Very intelligent guy eager to work with Liverpool.

Seems really happy to be there. News conference is electric, with all the journos hanging on every word. I hope he is still as upbeat six months in - he seems very relaxed about it all.

Great stuff!

Actually made me laugh a couple of times.
