Klopp to Madrid? Haha nice one. His bluff and antics wouldn’t get him to half-time in a pre-season friendly with Perez watching a few rows up above him.

This is Real we are talking about here. The kopites have turned winning nothing into an art-form, with Klippity now excelling in the role, not quite how it works at the Bernabeu.
What a superb post.
'The kopites have turned winning nothing into an art-form' is a line I will be using many times over the next few months, with your permission of course Bri.
COYB!!!
 


Hahaha the girlfriend/sister telling that saddo at the end 'it's alright' whilst he cries.

Imagine doing a [Poor language removed] sign at a TV after a guy has just scored the best goal ever in a final, so bitter.

Related to the first point, I see some saddo is on first dates saying he's a massive red and his relationship broke down because he got too angry with his partner because the bitters lost a game hahaha

Any girl in her right mind would take one look at the RS paraphernalia and run like buggery.
 
I forgot about Klopp's number 2 leaving a few weeks ago.

Will be interesting to see how this impacts them next season as he was widely known as the brains of the operation. Will Klopp struggle to get the initial set up right for games or will he not know how to change things if it all starts going tits up?

If they get off to a slow start next season I can see the pressure building on him very quickly

They’ve won one game since which was Brighton with their flip flops on at home. Lost comfortably to Roma, Chelsea and Madrid since Klopp’s assistant left.

Maybe they’ll start getting beat in semi’s
 

Klopp needs to go. If he leaves so do their scouts.
Their recruitment team have been there since FSG bought the club,Comolli brought most of them with him as he knew them in his time at Spurs.

Amazingly most of them started out working with BFS at Bolton and went with him at Blackburn as he was one of the first British manager to get in analytics in the early 00's

FSG do their baseball recruitment on the same analytical process,if Klopp goes they will all still be there as FSG trust that way of recruitment.

Real Madrid don't even do analytics they just sign the best players to fit a position they are in need of,same with Barca Bayern Juve.

The only notable clubs who do Analytics i know of are the RS Spurs Southampton Leipzig and Atletico.

I wonder if Brands is into analytics or is he all about the old trusted method of pure scouting,PSV have always been reknowned for getting young talent from the south american countries,but in Holland the rules are more relaxed in work permits than over here.

It’s not analytics, they just go out and buy whichever players are just below that CL elite level then promise them huge wages and their clubs a big transfer fee. Everyone had heard of Salah Mane Firmino Keita etc. They’re basically taking the best players from the Europa League teams. They know that the likes of Real or Barca won’t fish in that market so really they’re probably only up against Spurs Atlético and Dortmund for these players and they can dwarf the wages and transfer fees of all those teams. It’s clever and effective but one league cup in 12 years tells its own story too.

Yeah but analytics makes hk'toffee's team sound more intelligent, they still think they are going to be the footies Oakland A's
