Our start to the season must have irked you mate, early days. This has brought you from the shadows. Good to hear from you again.

 

Why would it irk me? Starting a season well for this team is never an issue, its winter that's the killer.

Weren’t we top of the league in Feb?

He’s dead to me the snivelling cunt.

GOD I STILL LOVE HIM

The back stabbing son of a bit.........

Its a weird job to take when his image is one of footy purist, if you will.

It will definitely be seen as a betrayal in Germany. 

[suzy]

Hmm not sure what I think to be honest. I’d stay in his huge villa in Majorca if I was him!

[halewood pete]

I wish him all the best in whatever he decides to do,He did say he would never manage another team in the Premier league and I take him at his word

[Trojan1892]

How long before Red Bull buy Liverpool ?

[Numero Veinticinco]

Doesn’t seem a problem to me at all. Gives him something to do in a non managerial role for a while until Germany comes up.

I get the feeling this has been lined up for a long time

Dortmund fans on Twitter aren't happy about it.

Really one for the shitness of modern football thread  this. 

[Dr Nowt]

Red Bull sign recently retired iconic footie manager who had told everyone he’s completely out of energy.

 

If only there was some sort of advertising campaign they could create which successfully references this, and would star one of the most charismatic people sport has ever seen.

[rubble-rouser]

Didn’t Houllier have a similar role?

Red Bull... it gives you millions!

[El Rojo]

Red Bull gives you scouting reports on Torsten Frings.

Not gone down well at all in Germany according to this, to the point where fans are questioning whether they would want him to manage the national team.

[bossy]

Football fans. We’re all fucking idiots aren’t we.

Deffo slightly disappointing. Shows why the club is always bigger than one person and although I love him we will/ have moved on and will be fine.

The only issue for me with this is Klopp being someone who has always stood for the 'proper club' 'doing it the right way' thing, joining an organisation like he has and one where the fans of the club he made his name at have actively come out in the past in real forcible opposition against.

This is basically what I said earlier in the thread. Hugely disappointed but not surprised. I do think it's going to go down much worse in his homeland though,as is being reported.
