Jürgen Klopp - New Liverpool Manager

Was there luck involved? Sure, bu you require some luck in almost every game you play if that's the way you want to look at things. Klopp is being a sore loser, even if he doesn't admit it.

Many neutrals thought it was a fair game. Only Liverpool fans or sympathizers think Bale scoring a bicycle kick is lucky

I admit that that isn't the strong part of the argument I'd get hung up on. I still think it's lucky,  but by that I don't mean that it's undeserved or doesn't involve skill. I just think that taking a volley shot with an overhead kick is a gamble that has less than 50/50 odds of going in, so it's not exactly wrong to talk about "luck" in that regard.
The Ramos antics, though, are what I'd focus on. Liverpool were doing really, really well until Salah was off and Karius was concussed.

For the sake of the argument, I just checked both incidents again:

1. The one on Salah is just a one-on-one challenged that doesn't look malicious at all, very unfortunate for Salah. These kinds of tackles happen in football all the time and you don't ever hear an outrage. This is only a big deal because it happened to be Sergio Ramos.

2. The one on Karius looks nasty but you can clearly see Ramos being pushed by van Dijk on the back and he was really trying to protect himself from injury as these kind of pushes can be really nasty. My question though is why didn't Liverpool's medical check him up and if they did, why didn't Klopp take him off?

I know the feeling, believe me, not only as an Arsenal fan but as a Houston Rockets fan. In the 2006 CL final we lost to Barcelona due to the stupidity of Jens Lehmann and for a long time I believed it was unjust that he lost that final but I've also realized a long ago that this is the game, you get some you lose some and you need a lot of luck to win big trophies all the way through. It's really pointless to argue about "lucky teams" because every team needs some luck to win especially in a final.

Doubt Bale's goal is what people point as lucky, it's the other two goals which people point to.

I mean they probably would have lost anyway but I can understand why they feel how they do.

Klopp said that Bale's goal was lucky man, it's literally in this thread.

What klopp should of said is manure paying 100mil for a dab merchant is why I’m now forced into paying 60mil for one of the best keepers in the world. And wtf is this sore loser bullshit. Forget all that shaking hands and hugs crap at the end of the game it’s all for show. People that are good losers don’t get to play at the top level. And yes the bale goal was lucky. When he retires after 20 years of football see how many goals like that one he has. It’s like saying if a guy wins the lottery he’s not lucky because he got the ticket and picked the numbers.

What Klopp is doing here is the definition of being a sore loser.

You want an example of how to act with class? Ronaldo scored an overhead-kick in front of 40000 Juventino, and instead of calling it "luck", they stood up and clapped. Then later Max came out and praised Ronaldo for it.

Even in the return leg when they came really, really close to knocking Madrid out, their coach expressed his anger but didn't hide behind some excuse to justify the defeat.

They lost 4-3 on agg, while Liverpool lost 3-1. They had more reasons than you to whine and complain but they did far less than you.

What I'm trying to say here is that you lost fair and square. Klopp needs to sit down and shut the f up.

no body. And I mean no body whines more than Madrid. The Madrid fans and the Madrid players. It’s like the club collects ass holes.

Klopp is a perrenial underachiever who talks too much. Has won less in Europe than Emery ffs.

no point with this debate if your just gonna talk bolox.

Debates are based upon arguments. Now, I have been here for three years and a half, and I have never seen you support your poorly articulated opinions with arguments. Not once.

Maybe you should think about cleaning "bollocks" off your posts before suggesting somebody else does it.

when you talk to someone that says stupid things like Madrid players?? When have you seen them whine. Our club is the classiest club in Europe. then its time to end the debate.

The classiest club in Europe ffs

There's a certain amount of bias towards your team that's acceptable but this is just ridiculous ffs
