Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - The Slotification of Liverpool is nearly complete

Wolves though.

Played like shyt. Dunno if that non-stop football from July 2018, the 3 months of inactivity and the heat fukked them up, but they played like they were defending a 2 nil lead in the 2nd leg..

Matic/Fellani midfield.

And what Mourinho said after the match.

Greenwood hat trick coming

I just hope Rashford doesn't get locked up by 34 year old Jesus Navas

So Lopetegui just wasn't a good fit for Madrid?

1) Rooney was right. He should have left . Wasted prime years. He was done by 29
2) They also allow Fergie to pick his replacement I understand he a legend and all. But you're retiring. Why did they allow him to pick his replacement? And Moyes at that.
3) Klopp was available but they procrastinated on sacking Van Gaal and went with Mourinho. .
4) Looking at the amount of money the club spent in the following years. I'm surprised Woodward is still in charge of transfers. The worst part is, it's not like the scouting department is trash. They recommended a lot of players. For some reason, the club never went out to get them.

Wasted prime years? He got another league before he was doneso lol. He was making a mint, Fergie knew he was cracked before he left. Klopp didn't want to come to Man U. Jurgen Klopp turned down Manchester United job offer because 'it didn't feel right' | SportsJOE.ie

Woodward should've been pinned, but he has had some shyt luck. Falcao didn't get healthy, Angel wanted to bolt, and no one could imagine Sanchez doing as bad as he did. Moyes fukked up Thiago and LvG fukked up Kroos so that's not on him though.

I look at it two possible ways. Either he learned and grew as a manager from his time at RM, or he’s an Unai Emery type that’s good at handling the actual football but not at managing all of the other things that go into running a big club.

He was playing very good football with the Spanish national team too, right? Before the world cup drama

Went from signing Rui Costa and Nesta, to using the smiley for fukking Bakayoko

The players didn't respect him. He did what he did and lost the dressing room before he even had a day 1 in the job.

Announcing he was joining Real Madrid before the World Cup, which then led to him being fired before the said World Cup probably didn't help either...
