My favourite Klopp signing will always be Andy Robertson. Those months when we saw him play one game and then just benched were so weird but what a player he turned out to be for us. Purposely leaving out the other gamble signing in Mo.

Played some of the best counter-attack football at Madrid though and I think he still has one last big dance in him. Having said that if we got Alonso I think that would be the first choice.

Oddly enough I think Jose would do rather well at Liverpool. He’s a fan favourite at Roma now and even though he’s past some of his best years I think he wouldn’t be that bad of an appointment here. The only thing that would work against him is the legacy Klopp has built and whether he could come in and get things rolling super quick. I think he actually could.

I feel like Salah is gone in the summer with this news although I think he was always one foot out the door within the next two seasons anyways.

Jurgen Klopp to step down as Liverpool manager at end of season - BBC Sport Shocking news but he's been running full tilt and had this team at the same pace for a while now. Can only wish him well. Thanks for everything Jurgen. Some crazy moments for us fans.

The showcase has certainly been impressive.

Saw it and I thought it was some kind of joke but apparently it isn't. Why would you want to be at a stadium and in a bed of all things is beyond me.

What makes people write the stupid things they do. Phew

We were discussing it today and while I love Pokemon I'll hardpass on a clone. What's even more funnier is that theres a Pokemon patch for it now and I can already sense Nintendo's lawyers waiting to strike. On a more serious note, its loads of fun from what I hear and if you like those sorts of games you should definitely give it a try.

I would have understood if they added more story fillers and game time that wasnt there in the original but I think upscaling a game is both just a cash-grab and honestly a waste of development time. What's worse is the praise it got and the fact that people still went out and bought it.

None. I'd rather companies spent time on sequels or new IP. If a game really needs a "remaster" it should also come with the fact that you have to have it at 50% of the current market cost because honestly that's just a lazy business move. The only exception is if you completely rewrite the game from the ground up and introduce modern mechanics into it to bring the story to a younger audience that wasn't around the first time it came out. That really makes it a "remake" vs a remaster imo.

Good game of football last night. Jota has stepped up to ensure we're getting chances created and it was nice to see Nunez get some goals as he works tirelessly up front and even if he doesn't get goals himself hes always looking to create chances which is what you want at the end of the day.

Money has a funny way of making things we think are impossible, possible but I hope they've put a lid on it completely. I think TLoU will last another two games personally but honestly their content is dry at this point and I'd like them to do something different like FromSW does when it takes breaks from doing soul-like games. Having said all that you're probably right in that they'll do something very similar to Uncharted with a new spin. I don't really consider TLoU as Survival Horror its more adventure and a lot of drama/story.

Naughty Dog needs news IP. Their old ones are getting rather boring at this point.

Just saw the highlights. Something is clearly wrong with Chelsea because Boro gifted them more than one chance to score and no conversion. Very odd.

The biggest disappointment in this thread is that Ryan Gosling isn't going to play POTUS. I'd totally line up to watch him sing about his sorrows and then get an award for best Box Office Achievement.

Happy New Year everyone.

Between 9 and 10 really. Nokia's glory years.

@Stan @Dr. Gonzo @Spike @nudge @Tommy @Bluewolf Psst. Friendly reminder, I'd like to close this by Saturday if possible.

Nice to see The Bear at #1, it really was good TV imo and you sort of see where the season is going you just don't expect it to end the way it does.

IMO the best female pundit/commentator about football going-ons I have ever heard is Melissa Reddy. I'd rather have her report on things than a lot of her male counterparts.

Lets be honest here. He's been shit for you granted but I don't think that's just down to the player alone. How does a player go from playing so well to almost non-existent and lost in a midfield? I'd argue that he had some of the best of his generation in midfielders at Ajax who were able to compliment what he bought to the table. Contrast that with what he has to work with at his current club and you can see why he may not be optimally performing. I thought when the manager changed that he would become good again just based on history and knowing how to use him but that doesn't seem to be the case. I think he'll come good at Frankfurt but it will take time because he's been out of it for so long he's going to need to recalibrate.

So sorry to hear that. Condolences to you and your family during this tough time.

Clearly. My whole year revolved around a few titles on Steam - DOTA2, BG3, Mini Motorways (I am addicted and not ashamed to say it) and Wingspan to play with friends haha. My PS5 year on the other hand is just filled with all kinds of good things haha. My Switch probably takes the cake for most used this year.

Odd but I spent most of the year on my PS5 and Switch with the only exception being Baldurs Gate which I played on PC. What's even more odd is that all the games I theoretically could have played on my PC I ended up playing on my PS5.
