PODCAST: Klopp extends contract until 2026 – Instant Reaction

I’ve just commented on the other thread! Loved that, I listened to the match thread last night thinking ‘but I just want to hear about Klopp!’ And here it is. Thanks.

Lying in bed last night chuckling away, trying not to wake the wife, at Chris saying "I knew that was coming" when Dave started about Guardiola and out came "the big weirdo"

I’m normally chucking in bed trying not to wake the husband!!

Wouldn't it be funny if Razoray and Suzy were actually married to eachother but didn't realise it.

It would but Suzy knows her onions and my wife differentiates football from other sports by the length of time they take. She hates football most as that takes 45 minutes per half. 

Great podcast, very entertaining! 

Glad risible was brought up. Integral is another word that can't be right. Just prior to Usher mentioning risible it was mentioned Paul was a teacher so I having serious doubts. Something to work on for next season.

A few things:

- I spent far too long trying to work out the “Frankie Dettori across the park” comment. What have horses to do with Everton? I eventually realised it was “Frank the Tory”. 
 

- We need to change the “Greatest midfield in the World” to a coaches song about Klopp, Ljinders and Krawietz

- this totally takes the pressure off this season for me. This doesn’t feel like the last chance for an incredible season, but the first of many. 
 

- like Paul, I also literally greeted this news like a goal in an European cup final. 

LINE-ders.

Agree with you and I think most of us will feel the same way.

Forgot to mention, "I'm the Jürgen Klopp of the podcast".

Haha.

Haha! MrSuzy doesn’t ‘do’ forums!

I thought the three lads were absolutely great on this one. I don't think you'll see better analysis from a fan's perspective. I thought they were entertaining, profound at times, offered great perspective in historical context, conveyed the feelings of overwhelming happiness and relief really well (without being over the top about it, as some might/have) and spoke brilliantly about what this means for the future. It was a pleasure to just sit back and listen to them in real time. 

If you enjoy what we do on the podcast and you haven't had chance to share it with some of your fellow reds (or leave us a review on the platform you use), this is one I'd definitely love to reach the widest audience, because the lads absolutely nailed this.

Yep, same here as I tried to articulate. If we don’t do it this year, so what, we’ll be back next year. And the year after etc.

What a time to be a Red!

Another quality listen, Dave's Klopp of the podcast analogy was great (as was Brownie's one for his lad's team).

Poor old Dan didn't get a mention, is he Achterberg then?!

It's defo in-teg-ral for me and I hate it when people say inter-grel. I bet Paul pronounces it like that.

Good luck fitting those names in.

Going to make a conscious effort to pronounce it that way from now on as it must be right if that's how Kloppo says it. Then again, he always calls Nat Phillips 'Nate' when no-one else does. I reckon that's short for Nate the Great which is the full title Kloppo probably gives him.

Couldn't think of anything on the fly for Dan so I reluctantly left him out. Had I had time to think it through I'd have said Dan brings the long standing grudges against referees. I couldn't even tell you who reffed us at the weekend but Dan will know who was in charge when we played Southampton away in 2015 and he'll know how many times he incorrectly gave a throw in against us.

Yeah, but what does Paul say? 

Every male Liverpool supporter when the news broke

Grudge statto! 

A compilation of all the subtle insults Brownie drops into each pod would be hilarious. 

Brownie is as subtle as a brick through the window.

Subtle as in delivery. Otherwise yes, a brick!

Really enjoyed that - thank you - I had a stupid grin on my face all the way through. Great points about lack of ego and leadership. Leadership is about lighting fires inside people, not under them. Contrast this with the way Mourinho and latterly,  Lampard have very publicly thrown players under the bus; in order to deflect from their own inadequacies and to protect their ego.
