The Kopite comments to that article:

'Nimby scum'

'So a football company, which is a money making organisation like all football companies wants to do something with the land they already own?!? What’s the issue? If it was public land I would understand the ‘outcry’.'

'Doyle has got to be fatties little bell boy'

'Who gives a toss'

'These resident should stop moaning and move with the times, could be worse maybe build another prison for the locals'

'Why should liverpool.f.c. give melwood to the community when its there training ground the council or the community didn't pay for it to be built so why give it away for nothing to the community. If the community want it they should get the money together and offer liverpoo.f.c. the full price of the land and building.'


The same divvies who talk a good talk about "Shanks the socialist" (which he wasn't, btw).

Last one was good idea, offer them 2000 quid if they don't except it, compulsory purchase order of £2005.50p.
That would be a lovely bit of karma.

I see Bascombe in the Telegraph has been listening to a mega session of Klopptrap. Apparently, this is LFC's first chance to win the Premier League ??
Hes clearly rattled by veiled or otherwise criticism. Pity this sensitivity wasn't applied by him to us prior, in his opinion, to our World Cup Final on Sunday. As he says though, they are pioneers though. They played three finals.

Jurgen Klopp: This is Liverpool's first chance to win Premier League title, not the last

Jurgen Klopp says time is on Liverpool’s side as they look to secure the Premier League title, insisting: “This is our first chance to win it, not our last.”

The German’s press conferences are beginning to resemble state-of-the-nation addresses, the Anfield manager keen to emphasise where Liverpool are in their development and how much they have improved to get there.
“No plant grows as quick as expectations here,” he said, ahead of Wednesday’s home game with Watford.
“With the first chance, you jump in and then see if it works out. Sometimes it does, sometimes not. This will not be our last, 100 per cent not.
It was a perceptive but timely response to criticism after successive goalless draws against Bayern Munich and Manchester United.

“Do other teams perform constantly? They don’t,” he said. “Sometimes they have the result, but we don’t look at them in detail, we just see they are winning.

“You only have this obsessed look on our football. Yes there were moments when I wish we would fly a bit more, but you don’t fly because you want to fly. You fly because you work for it.

“The situation is new for a lot of people. Last year we fought so hard for the Champions League. Obviously it feels different to fight for the next level. You have to adapt to that but I think the boys adapted really well. Why is it such a problem for us to win 1-0?

“When we win 1-0 we have to explain why we don’t fly or score like last year. If we draw we have to explain why we don’t win 1-0.

“I know I didn’t look like I enjoyed the second half at United, but that’s how it is. It’s hard work. If the mood drops a little I understand it is my job to kick a few a----.
“Obviously a lot of teams before us tried to be champions and it didn’t work out so it was always the manager or the team or other stuff like that.

“There is always a moment when, if we are not 25 points ahead, a season gets tricky. Always. Leicester had that. Chelsea had it. Only City last year didn’t really have it. Apart from that it always happens. [Even] Barcelona are not fluent in Spain.”

With City a point behind, Klopp was asked if Liverpool had to win their remaining fixtures to be sure of the title.

“When you hear it, you think, ‘That’s a bit difficult’. Is that really the only chance we have to become champions? I’m not sure,” he said.

“Let’s try to win the games we can win with all we have. Maybe it will be all 11 – really difficult, but it’s possible of course. We’ll go for it but we don’t think about the next 10 after this one.

“One generation has to break through, to make it happen and then for the rest it will be easier. It could be nice if we could be that.

“The development of this team is unbelievable. Now you think I praise myself or whatever, but it’s unbelievable. We played three finals. I know in the world outside, finals are nice, all perfect, then you go to them, don’t win it and nobody thinks about it.

“But being three times in finals in the last three years, I don’t know a lot of teams who have done that.
“We improve constantly in the table, all good, and then the moment we improve it’s immediately, ‘That’s not exactly how it was, what’s gone wrong here?’ We are in a good moment. I cannot help if you don’t see it.
“We know about our responsibility and we go for it with all we have.”

He's such a weirdo, I stopped reading because I was bored. They've had about 22 chances. Being 5 points clear with 3 games left or whatever it was, was definitely a realistic chance. Why's he saying it definitely won't be their last chance? He might be gone at the end of the season if he fails again.
