All worked out in the end though. We probably wouldn't have got Klopp had Rodgers gone in the summer of 2015. Quote

All worked out in the end though. We probably wouldn't have got Klopp had Rodgers gone in the summer of 2015. I mean I think the timing of Rodgers departure indicates to me exactly what it says in that thread: we asked Klopp during his sabbatical and he wasn't ready to come back to football yet, so we stayed patient and in contact until he was ready. Which was obviously the right decision looking back at it. That Stoke 6-1 match was rubbish I couldn't believe he survived. But I'm glad he did because it meant we got Klopp in. Quote
Rick Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 Losing the title to City despite our gargantuan points tally & losing the CL final to Madrid are the two most hurtful things in recent memory. BUT, fuck me, that 6-1 loss to Stoke and Burnley ending our unbeaten record at Anfield last season both hurt pretty fucking bad in their own right. I remember feeling shame that those scruffy bunch of trotters were the ones to end the run last year, made me physically sick. Quote

He's definitely got a weird megalomaniacal streak. Like a Rangers fan getting out their car in the middle of traffic to thank him for what he's doing for the game up here. Or his heartwearming story (told at the launch of his autobiography) of Danny McGrain (legendary fullback and backroom coach) asking Rodgers if he still had a job when he first arrived. Rodgers supposedly assured him "so long as I'm here, you're here". The only problem is Danny McGrain has no recollection of this happening. 4 Quote

I've quickly forgotten about most things that happened during the lockdown games to be honest. It was basically a different sport. Going back to Rodgers, I don't think that Villa semi final gets the attention it should in terms of how bad it was because of what followed with the Stoke game. We went 1-0 up and just capitulated against a side who finished 17th in the league that season. Quote

Pretty cool. I'm massively in favour of developing the old grounds when you can, nothing can replace the character of old English stadia. Is there an artist impression what it should look like when done? Quote

Spike Posted February 19, 2022 Posted February 19, 2022 I’m not really into redeveloping old stadiums, i think they should be left as is, at least in their original shape and style. It really doesn't affect or matter to me but I prefer buildings just get routine upkeep and new amenities that a complete redev. It is the paradox of the theseus.. if it keeps getting updated is it even the same building? Quote

You are long overdue a over 60k+ capacity for progression. Quote
Danny Posted February 19, 2022 Posted February 19, 2022 Feel like they could have added a third tier? Quote
Spike Posted February 19, 2022 Posted February 19, 2022 (edited) I still think it is ugly, like it has two buses attached to the sides I th8nk mainly because it reminds me of Soldier Field and Soldier used to be beautiful before it was remodelled Edited February 19, 2022 by Spike Quote

This season he's been brilliant. 1 Quote

Cicero Posted February 23, 2022 Posted February 23, 2022 Guess Drogba will just have to live with being the most successful African Premier League player. Quote
