Looking for a silver lining. My home was invaded tonight by a bunch of cnuts who thought it was ok to smash my door in while I was there. At least I didn't get to watch the game...

Seems to be a trend with the top 4 teams...

I would welcome Klopp at this stage. I feel last season was down to the 'Suarez' factor, and 5th-7th is BR's natural league position.

you honestly believe that Klopp would join us? you havin' a laugh mate.

He will have almost every club beckoning over him, and rightly so, and you think LFC have a chance of getting him?

I didn't say he would join us. Read earlier in the thread, people were relieved/happy that the club owners said the BR was staying put.

And not all clubs that would want Klopp would fire their current coaches at this point in time

Rafa would come back.....

Jurgen Klopp would find it hard to turn Liverpool down - German football expert

With pressure mounting on Brendan Rodgers follow the failure to even score against let alone beat two relegation threatened sides in the Reds’ last two games, a German football expert has said Jurgen Klopp would find it difficult to turn down the Liverpool manager’s job.

Klopp has been linked with the Anfield job ever since he announced he would be leaving Borussia Dortmund at the end of the season.

With Rodgers having failed to deliver on all three of Liverpool’s targets this season – a place in the top four, a trophy, and progress to Champions League knockout stages – FSG will review his position at the end of the season.

German football expert Raf Honigstein says Klopp is eyeing a move to the Premier League and would find it hard to turn down Liverpool if they were to approach him.

“Speaking to people close to him in November, where it was already on the cards that he might move to England, it was understood he wanted to move to an established Champions League club,” says Honigstein in an interview on talkSPORT.

“He’s also realistic enough to know that there aren’t that many likely offers from top four clubs coming in.

“At the same time, in so far as a emotional connection, and an ideal fit, Borussia Dortmund to Liverpool is the closest resemblance you can find.

“The fans are a huge part of the club, they also sing you’ll never walk alone. There’s a special kind of atmosphere in the city.

“It would be very hard for Jurgen Klopp to turn Liverpool down.”

Liverpool have won just one Premier League game since Rodgers claimed his side could finish second last month, instead they’re now scrapping with Tottenham and Southampton to finish fifth.

It hasn’t been a successful season for Klopp at Dortmund either, although their recovery has seen them reach the German Cup final this week after beating Bayern Munich on penalties. Klopp’s side were in the relegation zone earlier this season but have now recovered to eighth place with four games remaining.

Tick tock Brendan...tick tock...

Tick tock Brendan...tick tock...

The article makes it sound like those targets were official...is that the case? They seem reasonable, so no argument there...just wanting to know if it was acknowledged by the club as their goals for the season.

The media machine is in full swing...and I believe there are things happening behind the scenes. FSG has been ominously quiet up to now, and it would be rather naive of them not to make manoeuvres now seeing the likes of Klopp and Benitez are available in June, for when Rodgers gets graded F on the season review.

I thought FSG already said "No change"?

Don't think most clubs would officially publish their targets for a season; this is usually internally determined between the club and the manager in terms of objectives.

However Rodgers being Rodgers has mentioned it several times in the media with his typical shoot yourself in the foot remarks.

Example Rodgers says main objective this season is silverware

 

[Unhappy438]

I think Rodgers will stay, hes living off last seasons success. If he doesnt get something next season (either top 4 or a trophy) then hes probably gone.

Haven't seen any such official statement from FSG themselves? This was only claimed by Brendan himself.
