Originally posted by MOTHERDUCKER View PostWhat happened with Klopp at Dortmund? when they were in the relegation zone for a while?
Really feels he is one or two losses from the sack atm
His style of constant pressing led to running the players to the point of injury. Reus, Pisczkcek, Schmelzer, Bender, Hummels, Subotic etc
Couple that with exodus of their better players. They were a shadow of the CL finals squad.
That’s why I was concerned as how liverpool would be with him. Klopp runs his players to death like Bielsa.
He’s a good manager but stubborn in the debate of philosophy vs practicality. I wouldn’t be surprised if he is sacked but Liverpool would be doing themselves a disfavor in that. Could Liverpool really get a better or equal manager? I don’t know.

Why did Liverpool get Solanke?
They have two better players than him anyway in Woodburn and this Brewster kid is winning England an u-17 world cup by himself.
If we had Sven in charge our World Cup squad would be hilarious. He's big these kids for a laugh and because he always knew how boring international football was.
These kids need to move abroad when they're 18/19 imo.
Tammy Abraham has just turned 20 but he must be the youngest English player to get regular minutes in the top league. I'm calling it now. Tammy Abraham will get a world cup place.
That senior squad is soooooooooo dry. People will be annoyed if Sturridge gets in there again.
Kane/Welbeck/Abraham/Rash

England Rugby did a similar thing in the few tournaments before they won the WC in 2003. Some tough patches but in a WC cycle or two you got a whole team of players hitting their prime who all have played with each other for a long time.
I would actually be interested in that as well seeing how they develop. Do we really need to see the likes of Henderson and Cahill flopping around the pitch again?

Saying that I'd probably pick Jonjo Shelvey for this world cup just for laughs.
But yeah a young squad would make sense. Maybe Under 23/4 as a way to get in your Kane's and Maguire's in there.

Originally posted by hayZ View PostIMO it's actually criminal that Shelvey constantly gets overlooked for England. Name me a better passer for England that they can choose over him.
Wilshere, and Tom Carroll can also pass a football, and Harry Winks. Chalobah can hit a Hollywood ball.
Drinkwater too is supposed to be able to hit a nice pass. Couldn't tell you what he's like really.

Didn't we take a "young" squad to the last world cup featuring the prospects like Sterling.. Wilshire.. Sturridge and get absolutely diddled
Then embarrassed at the following Euros. Just give up on England already lads.. it's over just accept it and the tournament will probably be more fun as a result

We have an awful manager whos literally only there because Fat Sam got caught by some tabloids up to no good and because he's English.
Our team in the Euro's underperformed still if you look at the lineup, despite us having a ****e manager.
Rooney shouldn't have played, Joe Hart is awful, Dele Alli was terrible and so was Sterling. I don't like the fact that we don't use many natural wingers in our squad. I'd like to have Townsend playing more, he can run, is quick and like to play aggressively. Zaha is class too imo. Kane and Rashford should be the strikers with Zaha benched.
As much as I hate the wanker, Fat Sam would have made a good England manager.
