Fergie really didn't want to be in that photo.
Jurgen Klopp Sack Watch
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
I doubt we'll see that again. Same with Zidane winning three in a row in the CL.
I'm not sure how he's won PL manager of the season. He finished 2nd!
Cos Liverpool are the flavour of the Decade
Of course he is manager of the season. He doesn’t have anywhere near the resources of Pep and took him to the final game. It’s not a hard thing to process.
Just like Spurs had a better league campaign than Chelsea, or West Ham had a better league campaign than United.
Expectation is all on Pep.

Pep might make it three in a row next season.
Find it impossible to dislike him. Deserved award.
How can he win PL manager of the season? I’m sure when the season started, one of the Klopp’s, and Liverpool’s sims was to win the league. They didn’t. So why does Klopp get an award for failing to reach his aim? Strange one for me.
Better arguments could be made for Pep, Thomas Frank, Potter or at a stretch Conte.

Granted there's not too many these days, but just look at a losing press conference of his. His incessant whining and comments drive me up the wall.
Excellent, love how Klopp pulls him back in and tells him to grit his teeth for the camera. Not much of a perch really.
Title defence Collapsed last year when van dik out, city missing their player of the year good whack of this season hit 90+ points, klopp gets it
Fergie
Klopp brilliant manager but feels strange getting this one coming 2nd, unless it covers all comps them hes a winner, but isn't it just premier League?
True. He once said that meeting Fergie was like meeting the pope.
yeah I was talking about all the years he was with us, I do not manipulate stats like Liverpool fans.
Weird thing is Klopp winning this despite coming second and having no real injuries to deal with this season. He all but had his best XI to pick from every match and was able to rotate at will. The most testing time for him he managed to fake covid tests and rearrange his fixtures.
Pep had to work a lot harder to paper over cracks and cover missing key players.
That’s before you get on to Eddie Howe who turned Newcastle’s season on its head.

SAF managed us for 20 premier league years and won 13 of them. Pedantic I know but still awesome
Glad you agree that SAF is still the greatest manager in the history of the game.
Now that for sure is not a silly statement.
Jurgen klopp - 554 m Sterling spent
1 PL in 7 attempts
1 FA Cup in 7 attempts
1 League cup in 7 attempts
Possibly 2 CL's in 5 attemps
0 Europa Laugue's in 1 attempt
Total 4/5 trophies from a possible 27 .
Overrated?

I'm not sure but maybe the award is sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline, Merck and AstraZeneca.

Just the other day he complained about Wolves making fun of them losing the title.
But fair feks, its obvious he admires Fergie very much.
Who gives the runner up the best manager award ffs
So it should just be the manager of the champions each year? Might as well abolish the award in that case.Who gives the runner up the best manager award ffs
They have obviously taken into account the domestic cups. Not saying they should have, since it's PL manager of the season, but it's clear that they have. Had City won one of the two cups, it would likely (and rightfully) have been Pep.
Excellent, love how Klopp pulls him back in and tells him to grit his teeth for the camera. Not much of a perch really.
Silly comment. It’s more interesting that Klopp had such respect for Sir Alex that he wants him in that photo.
As usual you get the wrong end of the stick.
Klopp was just desperate for a photo with a 13 time PL winner.Excellent, love how Klopp pulls him back in and tells him to grit his teeth for the camera. Not much of a perch really.
Dumbstar wumming shocker.
No but Liverpool are one time PL winners and that too recently. Recent winners don't get awards for losing out on top spot. Madness really.
And cups don't matter. This is the PL award.
The usual
Why is everyone looking at Klopp's perspective? I thought Ferguson was your legend? Keep your eyes on him and off our man. I was.
Good edit.
It depends on the context. Personally I think Eddie Howe taking what looked like a cert relegated side to being comfortable mid table team was a great feat.Who gives the runner up the best manager award ffs
Also the Brentford manager worth a shout as well.
Not to mention Conte taking that spurs side over and turning their season from disaster to being 4th can't be over looked.
Liverpool finishing 2nd isn't anything special. They where 2nd favourites for the title and finished 2nd.
If all trophies are included then this should have been done once the season is over. Having the CL in your cabinet or not is a major difference
Ok, so he doesn't have the resources of City but he has a lot of resources and (now) a very deep squad. He finished second. That's the long and short of it. The only manager who should be getting that award for finishing second is a manager that wasn't expected to finish that high.
Your man can't keep his hands off ours though.Why is everyone looking at Klopp's perspective? I thought Ferguson was your legend? Keep your eyes on him and off our man. I was.
Okay you're making this creepy now.
Objectively Eddie Howe 100% deserved manager of the season but Klopp was always going to be the populist choice.
And all it cost them to do it was £80m. Or six times what Burnley spent.
Why did the manager who took his team to all three possible finals and who’s team amassed 92 points in the league, losing just three games all season win the manager of the year award, gee I dunno….
Also Liverpool weren’t the majorities pick for runners up.

I've just started watching Killing Eve. Had no idea he was an actor in his spare time!
Chelsea were always wildly overrated. That was obvious at the time.
