The Liverpool fans' sense of entitlement really pisses me off and Klopp irritates me too.
I don't understand why he's the darling of the media,.
Group dynamics always take a bit of time to suss out. I always imagine a lot of you posters to be something like this:
But I'm going to admit I personally am a lot lot closer to this:
So if I ever annoy any of you and you bite, understand that I will fold like a deckchair.
Welcome by the way.. :dierpochhug:
Its usual when joining to strongly defend Poch's tactics in direct response to

There's an excellent article on The Athletic, which is a subscription site, but worth the cash. I say excellent because it boils down most of the points that you'll find on here - mine in particular
Summary here. Is xposting allowed?
70% of the time he is a larger than life happy smiling bloke. That naturally draws people towards him, it would do in all walks of life. But when he gets pissed off then watch out.
I think they're all on the Fighting Cock all night and too tired to play. In fact, I'm sure some of them have avatars on here, knowing it's the only way they'll get any cups at Spurs!

I just think he's a dick.
Do you remember him the season before last charging up the touchline at Anfield like a demented idiot to celebrate Liverpool going 2-1 up against us in injury time??
And then it finished 2-2...
Hahahahahahaha!
And what was Klopp going on about the other day when he put his interviewer on the spot and asked him if Choudhury should have been sent off?
The interviewer couldn't really give an opinion and Klopp was saying 'Ya, well, you're English, you'll think it's a yellow card...'
What was that all about??

He's a force of nature, which Poch is as well. The dippers have a very well oiled media machine (probably comes from their owners experiences in baseball??) and Klopp is very good at the delivery, unlike Poch.70% of the time he is a larger than life happy smiling bloke.

Klopp / Pep / Poch are impact managers who, with the right funding, will achieve results. They do know that they have a shelf life because their methods are extremely difficult to produce after the honeymoon. Case in point both Klopp and Pep talked about their successors recently.
Poch didn't have that funding and over achieved but now is suffering from an stale, tired squad who just don't have the belief to go beyond 100% because they've doing it for the last 5 years
Not Dele. Too busy buying new skins for his Fortnite crew.
The same as any manager who wants to pressurise referees into protecting his players. Take your pick.

If Tottenham could consistently finish top three with a thin and brittle squad, how much better would they be with a true depth in quality? If Mauricio Pochettino could take them to the Champions L…

Decent read in dismissing ( with reasons) some theories such as Poch losing the dressing room - but conclusion is probably to wait for the cavalry.
if what they are saying is true then how unfair is it for those so called big names to spoil the season for the likes of Harry W and others waiting in the wings. I really thought our players were above all this sort of childish behaviour. Who would want them in any team. I cannot believe what we are seeing.
More like fucking Bill and Ben....everybody's wrong except Poch according to these two.
Everybody is in the wrong to some degree but when you spin in a circle while your pointing fingers you just look like John Travolta. I'd settle for that.
Nah, that's Peter Moore all the way, imo. People joked at the time about Liverpool appointing a video-game executive, but the guy flat out knows mass media.
Cbs not peforming. Something isnt right, Sanchez is young and done very well for me since arriving. Hes had some poor games mainly playing rb this season and now cant get a sniff above two wantaway and not perfoming players. Will foyth ever be ready?
Rose is declining and has been but i cant blame and LB problems. Rose obviously doesnt want to be here totally but now is out main priority lb with sess injured. Davies is not good enough.
Ndombele, winks and sissoko are not creative enough for me. Will Lo Celso prove the goods? Maybe. But why are our hopes all of a sudden on him coming in and performing.
Dier looked so awful.
Alli needs gametime for me and Lucas is absolutely fucking essential right now but for some reason is being ignored.
Now is make or break, either Poch shows some balls and sorts this mess out and manages the situation, we are in for a very rough period.
I think another manager could well be the answer if it gets the players going but im so willing to back poch over anything but his performance in terms of team picks and im game management is not stopping me from considering other managers. Hes making poor mistakes for me so its not like hes doing everything right, hes not.
Very awkward divorce incoming if you ask me... Very very sad

I don't see how he's pressurising referees when it's a post-match interview.
I was referring more to the comment about the interviewer being English which was just a bizarre thing to say.
Pochettino needs to do what I said in my original post.
"Agree with me or the world will put it down to how the English league sees itself as special and should have its own rules."
No-one agrees but he's a smart man. Every manager that's had a flair player ever has played that card. He plays a good game.
