That was the Week that Was (Feb 25-29 2024)

Monday Feb 26:

 

Still basking in the glow of yesterday. The content that comes out after these wins is always brilliant and this is no different. All the footage of Darwin being mental, from numerous angles, the goal celebrations put to the Rocky music, the image of Klopp fist pumping the fans with a crestfallen Caicedo sat on the pitch looking on, the kids celebrating together with the big photo of them all, Klopp’s dad dancing to Dua Lipa, Diaz’s actual dad dancing, the video of the best Allez Allez Allez ever that spurred the team on, Neville savaging Chelsea with that “billion dollar blue bottle jobs” just because he was pissed off we’d won…. there’s just so much to digest. Imagine being us.

 

Meanwhile, the PL bottled it and gave Everton four points back. On what grounds? Because of how much they’ve cried? What a load of bollocks this is. The punishment was the very least they deserved given the offences. They had been allowed to write off a load of shit they should never have been able to write off (all the Covid losses for one thing) but they cried and screamed "corruption" and the PL have shit themselves. It's a joke. Not as much of a joke as them doing nothing to stop City from just carrying on regardless, but it's still a joke. 

 

Everton still have another charge which might see them docked more points, and Forest will probably get done as well. THIS SEASON. Whatever happens to City won't be this season. It won’t be until God knows when, by which time they might have added another tainted title to the collection and ruined yet another PL season. If they win it and then get punished next season, what fucking good does that do us or Arsenal? 

 

I understand how complex it is and that it will take time, but the more I think about it the more I don’t understand why they don’t just do them in blocks of five charges, starting this season. These cunts need the book throwing at them to the extent that whatever punishment they get causes them to fall down the leagues, lose all of their best players and see Abu Dhabi pull out of there because of the bad PR they’re getting. I want that club ruined and for them to never win anything again. And not even that would make up for the memories they’ve robbed us and others of.

 

Meanwhile, "Go and win it for them, young King". The new “eight worst words in the English language” perhaps? Tony Bellew tweeted that yesterday when Danns came on and as you can imagine it caused quite the stir with the Blues. Neil Danns is his best mate so he's known Jayden since he was a little kid, but "go and win it for them" was never going to go down well. He knew that but said it anyway, because in his words Jayden is “family” but now they're mad at him and his ‘top blue’ status is being questioned. There's never a dull moment with the Blues is there?

Look, I’m not saying Howe is going to be our manager. He isn’t. I’d burn the entire place to the ground before I’d let that happen. 
 

 

If it looks like it will happen I’m going to hold you to that.

Maybe Champ could run a fundraiser, I'd happily chip in for petrol.

I hadn’t realised the Edward’s rumours were that strong and hadn’t considered the potential impact on our current squad, does all sound very concerning. We just need someone to come along and keep the culture of what Klopp has built going (Xabi) not have someone come in with a huge ego and try to change everything

Howe and his suntanned tosser of a mate give off Hodgson vibes in terms of ability 

Huge "England Coach" vibes which is where he will end up and not with us thank god.

Feels like a real shortage of decent candidates so only Xabi no one else.

Very true.

 

I think whatever happens in the summer Southgate will step down and Howe will be a very likely replacement. 

 

Howe is another one that really obviously just doesn't have what it takes to be a Liverpool manager in any shape or form.

That Amorim guy at Porto is definitely worth considering, I would say.

I don’t remember an Amorim from Porto. I know an Amorim from Sporting Lisbon

Saw an article ( The Athletic ? ) mentioning the usual suspects ( Xabi, Amorim, Nagelsmann ) but used a stats based approach to lesser known managers who fitted our squad and the club ethos , and came up with 3 outsiders.

 

Paulo Fonseca at Lille

Sebastian Hoeness at Stiuttgart

Michel at Girona.
