ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

Let's stop posting links to them then. I won't click on it, but others will and it's generating traffic/hits for them.

Honest to god, it infuriates me that that rag hasn’t gone under. The day can’t come soon enough, absolutely worthless pile of trash. Would not wipe my arse with it.
I only read that site to find out about the goings on around Liverpool. I'm sure there must be better websites out there for that sort of thing.
 

What's happening now is the exact thing that happened with his Dortmund side. A couple years of steady progress, followed then 2-3 seasons of massive success. Media darlings, him coronated as the greatest manager ever, players in their form of their lives. By the 5th or 6th year teams start playing them with zero fear, the players are run into the ground and he starts acting more and more like a petulant w***er whom the owners are reluctant to back. His last season in Germany was awful and he left the club in a total state. Dortmund were very lucky Tuchel was the one who followed him and whipped everything back into shape. Their next manager is the biggest decision in LFC history since Dalglish stepped down. If it's Stevie Me then they're in for a mighty drop off.

Did injuries become an issue at dortmund too, file under too lazy to research for myself and was never a fan of German football so never looked up news about it either.

Yes mate, loads. They hardly had a game all of that final season under him where they played their best eleven.

Obviously Lewandowski going to Bayern was huge but they kept losing key players for 2 or 3 games at a time due to soft muscle injuries. The training he puts teams through takes years off their careers in the end. There's of course an argument that it's worth it if it means winning several trophies, but you can't then turn around and complain about awful luck when eventually the players starting dropping.

He's an undoubted winner, but not a dynasty builder like Ferguson, Cryuff, Pep, Shankly or Wenger.

Masively so mate. Goetze, Reus, Sokratis, Sahin, Gundogan, Kagawa, Subotic etc were all run into the ground by Klopp. It's what makes me think this injury run they get will just get worse now. None of the above ever came back the same player either (with the eception of Gundogan, which has taken years and Pep to recover him from the damage Klopp did).
 
Not one of their players argued at the time and Carragher shouted "penalty" on the commentary

Then all of a sudden he decided it was never a pen and the VAR ref tried to get involved. It was a penalty all day long and there wouldn't be a single word about it if it had been us bringing down one of their forwards in that manner.
Alexander-Arnold buried his head in the deck, he knew he'd given a penalty away.
 

No love for herr shipmann, as he was a egotistical, arrogant, obnoxious arsehole before his mother died and shouldn't be having excuses made for him for his shocking treatment of reporters and journalists just doing there jobs, ever since then. Naturally, I have sympathy for him loosing his mum, but he isn't the only person affected by this pandemic.

After Saturdays wonderful result and the ensuing further implosion of our pinkie cousins, I thought back to when they secured the * and all the rs infested media, who were happy to chat wham when a Microphone got shoved under their jowels, and were all spouting the same rhetoric about the dynasty that Jergen had built and that they were back on their perch and would take some stopping from winning everything in sight(those comments aged well didn't they gents?).

For all the success shipmann has brought murder Inc, the model he deploys just isn't a long term plan or solution nor dynasty building, and he proved that at Dortmund.

His continued use of the same players over and over again, rushing them back from injuries and expediting the Peds to carry them on the relentless running for 95+mins 2 or 3 times a week is a recipe for disaster, and he has reaped what he has sown this season from last.

They were incredibly lucky with injuries for the two season where they have won trophies, and even before then - the squad he built was never set up to cope with just two or more injuries, even though he has broken world transfer records in doing so.

It was never going to be a dynasty, as he never put the foundations into to create that.

If someone could post a link to a few of the cringeworthy * celebration interviews sky did with sourness and cocknose, that would be grand, as they are hysterical given what we are seeing.

Even better if you tech wizards could put the laural and hardy laughing vids mixed in at each punchline - Ta!
