Think he's at the same standard he was in his last season here, in a team that creates far more good chances
That's a hell of a standard though

By Hitch Go To PostHmmKlopp should just play your FA/League Cup side from now on.
Now he's sorted out the suspension-worthy behaviour, he's a bargain. As it was though, he came with a tonne of baggage. Think it was a fair price at the time.
We've done a WOAT job of spending the money though. And compounded it with completely mis-spending the Sterling money. And now we're 8th (9th after tonight?). With a -4 goal difference. 24 games in.
Absolute fucking state.

imagine taking the job of valencia manager
imagine losing 7-0 to barca

imagine going back to being a pundit and appearing on television telling managers and players what they've been doing wrong and how they could've done it better

By Perfect Blue Go To PostKlopp should just play your FA/League Cup side from now on.Klopp seems to have already fallen into the trap of constantly playing experienced players who have proven that they're not good enough
Would like to see Allen and a couple of the kids given a good run of games

Not being a good manager doesn't make a you a bad pundit. Punditry is all about analysis with hindsight. And that's only a small part of management.
The interplay between Messi and Suarez.....I miss that most about Suarez, his goals were amazing and his commitment to win the ball back unmatched, but his vision and range of passing at Liverpool was astounding. Between Messi, Neymar and Suarez Barcelona really have the perfect trident.

True, but I think Gary is seeing that things are a bit harder than he made them sound as a pundit. How many times did he say "I can't understand why..." when on sky. Maybe he'll be an even better pundit now.
By Laboured Go To PostNot being a good manager doesn't make a you a bad pundit. Punditry is all about analysis with hindsight. And that's only a small part of management.Well he was doing the manager thing for a while now so he was either naive or arrogant.

Assistant, nowhere near the same as many have demonstrated.
Gary Neville's issues expose how difficult Football Management is. It's why LVG needs another 4 seasons and 300 million pounds to spend before we can truly judge him. Keep the faith.

New Bayern defender Serdar Tasci, brought in due to string of recent injuries, injured during first training session.

My sweet sweet Tomas.
"Nobody understands. I told him straight away after half-time to warm up. I observed him, he's very conscientious Tomas, he did sprint and sprint, and sprint. He comes on; after three minutes he got the injury," Wenger said, as quoted by the Guardian.
"I looked at him and thought: 'Tomas you do not run properly' because he didn't lift his legs and he lost some balls. I was amazed because he is at the top level technically. He told me after the game that he did it straight away, then I understood why that happened to him. He said 'I stayed on because you couldn't change anymore'," the French manager explained.
"He warmed up well, for 20 minutes. He's devastated. Unbelievable. He's such a good player but his career has been disrupted by so many injuries. He was born in 1980, he's 35, it's difficult for him. Let's hope we have good news, that it is not as bad as feared."
I remember one injury of him in 2008, probably at his peak here, he stayed out from january 2008 til july 2009.
:(
I loved him so much
I walked 2km every gameday to watch him play for Arsenal in 2006.
He made me an Arsenal fan.
I'll always love him.
A true legend.
