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

[SCORCH]

The Tuchel revisionism is absolutely nasty. He wasn't perfect but the way people talk about him is nuts.

One half season resulted in a top 4 finish and won the CL.

His one full season whilst dealing with sanctions he finished 3rd, narrow defeat in the CL final to the eventual winners and lost two domestic cup finals on penalties.

He did more in 1.5 seasons than some people's favourite managers do in 5. If he did this for any other club he would get way more credit. The Chelsea tax is sumn else.

How did he get the PSG job?

PSG's ownership have been inept at their job for the longest.

- Sacked Kombouaré who was 1st in the league but not shiny enough. Got Carlo who's a top coach.
- Carlo left because they put too much pressure on him so he felt they he hadnt their full confidence. Got Blanc because of his playing style.
- Extended Blanc just before the quarter final against City that he lost. Sacked him at the end of the season anyway. Got Emery because he knew how to win european tournaments.
- Sacked Emery because of the 6-1 to Barça. Got Tuchel because he was the next best thing in Europe.
- Sacked Tuchel because of internal politics. Got Poch because he was an ex player and did quite well overall with Tottenhqm
- Sacked Poch because he couldn't fit players he never wanted. Got Galthier because he won the league with Lille.

Rinse repeat. There is literally no overall direction as it's pure "gimme the CL" short termism. If they were City's owners they would have sacked Pep after losing to Tottenham in that CL quarter.

Mane punched Sane?

Mane punched Sane?

Mane's nice guy persona is veiled by his charity and media narrative.

Some players are looked as not so nice because of their on field attitude but in real life they are very chilled .

Liverpool legend though

Give me that "sub-par" era over whatever has been going on since any day.

How could they ever let Mourinho go?


Chelsea fans becoming Brazilian just to defend Tuchel, talking about Club World Championship

He lost both cups to Liverpool, needed Arsenal meltdown to qualify for CL and was unable to stop the decline that started with Real Madrid loss. The decline continued into the next season and his inability to get along with ownership and players was the end of him.

But yeah lets pretend when I said subpar I meant winning the CL and not getting hoed in Zagreb and losing 3-0 to Leeds

You seem to be forgetting the “downturn” coincided with crippling sanctions imposed by the UK government on the club. They couldn’t even pay the coach drivers ffs



The fact that Tuchel got them to two finals and 3rd is a minor miracle.

352?
