I hope Klopp never manages another English club.

I hope Klopp leaves and comes back to manage us again.

Fuck me looks like Wenger can't afford a square meal since being ousted. . The mean cunts at Arse could have at least given him some luncheon vouchers before kicking him out on the street.

Looking at the squad that Klopp built and watching them train probably reminded Wenger that football's great when you're not managing overrated feckless shitbags.

Spot on.

I can't believe Wenger would want to go back to Arsenal as manager. Not after the way they (fans) treated him and the shit show that the club is at present. Better being retired and watching our lads do their stuff.

the bloke is 71 though and nobody has shown any interest in him since he has left arsenal. i am sure he feels there's some unfinished business and would like to get back, get them back in the top 4 and make that his legacy. i am not sure it would be the right thing for arsenal (even though it's hard to believe he would be worse than lego head), but i can see why he would want to go back.

I would guess he would have been approached by quite a few clubs since leaving Arsenal, whether manager, DoF or some consultancy roles, I'm not sure but I'd wager that it's not like his phone just stopped ringing.

well he certainly hasn't had a call that has turned his head. when you look at the role he had at arsenal in his latter years after Dean left, you would have thought it would have been a natural progression for him to end up in this job Edu has and identify and bring in coaches that carried that on. Perhaps things had dipped too far towards the end and he was seen a bit as yesterday's man, but I find it astonishing arsenal are losing the wealth of experience he has, while running about with Edu and Lego.

He probably doesn't, as the tweet was from IndyKaila

If Bodgson aka The Owl can get employed by somebody then Wenger deserves a red carpet and a solid gold comode from many clubs he would improve. He'd be a fantastic mentor for a younger manager but I feel he'd much rather be in charge himself.

By all accounts he has no intention of doing Edu's role. 

 

He likes coaching.

that's fair enough. but by 71 it must be tougher to do all that is required day to day of someone coaching and managing the team.

Probably more Palace than WBA but Wenger would want control of almost everything football related and that fop haired nonce Steve Parish would not be up for that.

[TheHowieLama]

He doesn't want to go back to Arsenal he wants to go back in time.

Wenger engineered & firmly laid the foundations for the position that Arsenal are in now. The hapless Venkatesham, Edu, Arteta etc are a by-product of the one-man-rule he enforced: there was zero structure to the club outside of him. It was Wenger’s signings in the latter 5 years & Bosman losses / outrageous contract extensions that put them on this course: they’ve simply followed through on that in the most disastrous way possible since.

 

anyway, as you were ..

[Stickman]

The way Arsenal is run now they’d probably sack Arteta and employ Viera

Jurgen Klopp has compared the Covid anti-vaccination lobby to drunk drivers – whose choices endanger the lives of others. The Liverpool manager says his squad are 99 per cent double-vaccinated, including himself and his staff, and that he did not have to persuade his players who made “a natural decision” to get the two doses of the vaccine.

Klopp has been clear about the importance of taking medical advice when it comes to Covid and listening to the views of specialists in the field.

“Where did I get the knowledge that I think it makes sense to get the vaccine? I called doctors that I’ve known for years and I asked them, ‘What should I do?’” said Klopp, whose side face Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday. “That’s how I usually work.

“When you don’t know about something, you call a specialist and the specialist tells you, ‘From my point of view, I would tell you this or that’.

“That’s why I took the vaccination. I am in an age group where … the virus could be tricky, and I was really happy when I could get it [the vaccine].

“Maybe I’m a bit naive, but I don’t understand 100 per cent why we [managers] are not allowed to give advice [on the vaccine]. If I say I am vaccinated, other people say, ‘How can you tell me you are vaccinated? How can you tell me I should be vaccinated?’ I explained it myself a bit like drink driving. We all probably were in a situation where we had a beer or two and thought we still could drive but, [because of] the law, we are not allowed, so we don’t drive. This law is not there to protect me when I drink two beers and want to drive. It’s for protecting all the other people because I’m drunk, and we accept that as a law.

“We all know that alcohol is bad for our body, but we still drink it. With the vaccination, [some] assume it’s not good for our body, even though all the specialists out there say … the vaccination is the solution for the situation in that moment.

“For me, it is exactly the same. I don’t take the vaccination only to protect me, I take the vaccination to protect all the people around me.

“I don’t understand why that is a limitation of freedom because, if it is, then not being allowed to drink and drive is a limitation of freedom as well. But we accept that.”

He added: “If I show up in the office drunk, they can send me home or even sack me, but we are not allowed to ask people [if they are vaccinated]. I might be really naive, but I don’t understand it. I got the vaccination because I was concerned about myself, but even more so about everybody around me. If I get [Covid] and I suffer from it: my fault. If I get it and spread it to someone else: my fault and not their fault.”

Gareth Southgate says that he does not know which of his England players are double-vaccinated following concerns that significant numbers of England players are refusing to get the Covid vaccine. Southgate said he was prevented from knowing because of medical confidentiality rules but that it is likely to become clear over the next few months leading up to the 2022 World Cup finals.

The England manager, who announced his squad on Thursday for the next two qualifiers against Andorra and Hungary, said that it would become obvious “where one group [of players] is going to go through one door and another will go through the other”.

He said he supported the efforts to get vaccination levels up. “I don’t see another way other than a huge vaccination programme, frankly,” he said. “I am yet to be advised by those who don’t see it that way what the alternatives are.”

On Saturday, Sajid Javid, the Health Secretary, took a stronger stance on those opting against vaccination, saying players were “role models” who should be encouraging others to get jabbed.

“I would just appeal to these people, whether they are footballers, whoever it is... that the vaccines are working,” he told Times Radio. “They’ve made a conscious choice. It is disappointing, of course it is. They are role models in society. People, especially young people, will look up to them and they should recognise that and the difference that can make in terms of encouraging others.”

The Qatar organisers of the World Cup next year are yet to decide whether non-vaccinated players will be allowed to play in the tournament. Regulations in Qatar are strict for citizens and tourists, requiring proof of a double vaccination against Covid for admittance to most public areas.

The ultimate decision will be made by the Qatari health authorities in conjunction with Fifa and discussions between the two continue.

It is possible that quarantining and consistent negative Covid tests will be enough for players and fans to be admitted to the country without a double vaccination at the Fifa Arab Cup in the Gulf state. The tournament between 16 teams starts on Nov 30.

The Qatar organising committee is using the event as a warm-up for the World Cup next year. It is not an official Fifa event and there is no mandatory player release for clubs.

There has been no decision taken yet on what requirements will be in place for next year. The ultimate decision will be made by the Qatari health authorities in conjunction with Fifa and discussions between the two continue.

It is possible that quarantining and consistent negative Covid tests will be enough for players and fans to be admitted to the country without a double vaccination.

6 years in charge as of 8 October. How time flies!

Does anyone think that this cunt takeover of Newcastle, bringing yet another set of oil cheating cunts into the league, will make Klopp unwilling to extend his deal? 

He already has to deal with 3 other teams with vastly greater budgets and having the richest one yet enter the league may just be the final deal breaker for him in 3 years.
