There would be some major Tweaking but NO wholesale changes. Doubt if there will be any major signings in January.

Wish he came in earlier and we kept Sterling.

Would of suited the high tempo we're about to play.

Dat passion.




I think I'm in love.

Don't give a ***bleep*** about that brat. But Suarez might have stayed if Klopp came early.

Putting aside his antics during his exit... The lad would have been perfect for Reus's role in Klopp's system.

*sigh*

Oh, and the squad really isn't that bad. With a few tweaks Klopp could make it his own. Granted, when two of those tweaks are RCB and GK... Well, that's a small problem.

When has a manager ever come in and sold half the squad in Jan?

It won't happen, there may be some big changes, but only a few personal will change.

I had a dream Sami was his assistant. What a goat coaching staff that would be ffs

ffs

Jürgen Klopp would be fantastic for Liverpool, says Mats Hummels - ''He eats, lives, breathes and thinks football day after day and is a fantastic addition to any team. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for him in his next venture.''

Hummels and Reus confirmed then.

Hummels + Sakho partnership.

Been on the road but found a computer just to log in and tell y'all CONGRATULATIONS YOU BASTARDS!

Watched the presser on loop 4-5 times, each loop being a further test of my unwavering faith and support of my Goonerdom over the last decade.

And yet, I remain srigooner and not sriscouser.

It is a pleasure to see so many of you feeling reinvigorated and showing renewed passion and enthusiasm. It has taken a while coming, but I am convinced that this is no false dawn.

This should also make the league a whole lot more interesting.

It's really interesting and nice to watch his first interview on LFC TV if you have the subscription. Obviously most of the things that he's going to say are positive, but he just seems very genuine in what he is saying it's not measured or calculated and it doesn't seem scripted.

A few notes from it...

- One of the best moments of his life
- He always thought about working in England as a manager for the culture around football there, and Liverpool was his first choice
- When asked if it was an easy decision he starts off saying it wasn't that hard, but that he needed the 4 months off that he took after the hard last year in Dortmund because he's been managing for 15 years straight and he needed to relax and get a fresh perspective
- Anfield is the most special stadium he's been to to him
- He loves football and its an amazing game because of the fans, so its very important to him to be connected to the fans, and its his job as a manager to help people forget their problems and enjoy what they are seeing
- He doesn't think that he has to "adapt" to English football...it's only football, everybody plays the same game they all have the same rules and he's seen lots of English teams play and he's played against them
- He thinks it's important to play the game from the heart and the head and he thinks it's very important for it to be easy for the players to understand what you want from them
- Considers the job the most interesting one in the world right now because of the expectations but nobody seems satisfied
- He believes in the potential of the team, he doesn't want Ronaldo or Messi...he wants the guys that are on the team
- Believes in building his team and the way he wants to play the most important thing first is being able to play defence, your team can be most confident in play if they are not worried about every attacking move of the opposition becoming a goal (though he admires teams that play possession based)
- Klopp is fine with the way the transfer committee is set up because he has first and last say, doesn't want to keep players that don't want to be there because he has to work with these guys every day, and he doesn't want to spend money he doesn't have...discussions with FSG are very healthy and great
- Bringing his backroom staff
- His message to Liverpool supporters: "We have to change from doubter, to believer...now"

I'm a believer.

FFS I AM A BELIEVER TOO!!

I said my faith is being tested. I didn't say I failed those tests.
