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

[GustaveH]

Had a little look on RAWK. They are all convinced that Klopp is the more successful manager. They even claim anyone "sane" can see this, which works if your definition of insanity is an inability to count to 8.

They provide no evidence for this assertion other than their own opinions and some comments from Koeman praising Klopp as categorical evidence that he "knows Klopp is a superior manager".

There's then a lot of stuff about Klopp going to Bayern, which I can't ever remember saying so Christ knows why that little strawman has been built.

Anyway the end result it seriously rankles with them that Koeman has been more successful than Klopp in his football career including his playing career. I am not celebrating this and in all honesty couldn't care less. What I care about is factual accuracy and correcting those who wish to lie or ignore evidence.

Anyway for any of the rats who are lurking, can you produce 1 piece of tangible evidence that Klopp has been more successful than Koeman as a manager? Koeman has even managed to finish in the top 7 twice in England which Klopp failed to do in his first 3/4 season here! I have nothing against Klopp, he's a good coach and seems a decent bloke but his trophy cabinet looks bare compared to Koemans, as either a player, manager or both.

Klopp has only managed in England for one season, not three or four in case you were not sure.

I took that as meaning three quarters of a season not 3 or 4 seasons

Klopp has won the Bundesliga and got to two European Finals as a manager, hardly something to be sniffed at like

Koeman was a hugely successful player though, winning both the European Championships with Holland and the Champions League with Barcelona

They're both good managers IMO, why get into a pishing contest over who's better?

True; not what they DID, but more what they do now and in the future will decide

Spot on with that, I am personally happy with Koeman and that is all that matters to me. Could not care less how many trophies they each won and in what countries against what teams.

Klopp is the better manager anyone who doubts that is a nut job.

I like koeman but klipps track record is better .


He's still a bi polar weird nazi whopper though .

Stick a red scarf and a jacket on it and it could easily pass for a home supporter with a foreign accent.

RS "fan" from my neck of the woods won the Daily Post free wedding competition, lost a shed load of weight along with his new wife and now they're selling their story to the Sun.

He's tried to justify it by saying it'll sort out Christmas for his family.

He's getting absolutely pelted for it from all angles. Deservedly so.
