I hope Dortmund do not roll over and having their bellys tickled by The Premiership and Bayern. Arguably the best young team in Europe with an outstanding manager and the best stadium in Europe bar none. Surely they want things to stay that way |

It is hilarious to watch the sudden scramble by the English speaking media to try to appear knowledgeable about Jurgen Klopp/Dortmund/Bundesliga.
Guardian articles are usually the best of the bunch.

Andreas Muller should have gone with Mirko Slomka. Neuer,Bordon,Westerman,Jones,Erst and Kuranyi are the spine of a decent side but the rest should be cleared out. Schalke should be hiring someone like Jurgen Klopp at Mainz and Gazprom need to free up some real cash to buy some quality players. |

Klopp had an offer in summer 2014 from England. He reqested at that point that BVB terminate his contract and the club refused. Now he has what he wants and i wouldnt be suprised having spoken to a few people over the last few days if he ends up at Man City or with the Gunners. According to reports it all happened very suddenly, the players were not informed and got the info from the press today. |

He said at Christmas he would go to England as he can speak English. He also says only clubs that are projects he can work on, like his last two clubs, are the only ones that interest him. If he sticks to those principles can't see him at City.

Well, Wenger may want to retire. No-one really saw Ferguson retiring. Wenger may have told the board and asked Klopp directly himself the way Ferguson did with Moyes. Only thing is that Wenger has two years remaining on his contract. It's odd really, assuming Klopp wants somewhere where he'll be given time to impose his system and doesn't want to go to a high money club with instant pressure and owners who won't accept anything less than a sustained title challenge. Where does that leave? -------------

Its hard to look past city, but his stock certainly isn't as high as a year or 2 ago. I think Southampton could be a very good fit for him. As long as there is a promise of a decent transfer budget and a willingness to hold on to the majority of their best players. If they had done that last year chances are they`d be on course to being a Champions league team either this year or next. Wherever he goes its going to be a different ball game. If he had the season he is after having with Dortmund at a bigger club, he wouldn't have the option of walking away in the summer he`d have gotten the bullet a long time ago. I think it`s worth remembering that he has had an horrendous season there. They have been fighting relegation and only pulled clear in the last few weeks, that's a terrible season for a club that regularly fills and 80,000 seater stadium. Whatever about players he lost he still had Piszczek, Reus, Immobile, Hummels and Gündoğan in the team, all players that are highly sought after by top clubs. If you look at the top teams in England: Chelsea - have a manager that's reasonably stable in the job United - the same Arsenal - should but wont get rid of Wenger and I think Klopp would be a perfect fit for them. City - will be looking for a manager and It will be between Klopp, Simone (if he wants to leave Atletico) and Ancelotti (I expect him to leave the circus in Real and if he does Klopp would be in the running for that job too) ------------- I won the Player of the Century award thanks to the people.Pele was second.He also came second behind Aryton Senna as Brazil's greatest sportsman.The award FIFA gave Pele isn't worth sh*t - Maradona |

The main reason Dortmund struggled for a lot of this season was their horrendous injury list.Once the injury list cleared up they moved up the table and havent been in any danger since December.They also missed Lewondowski's goals as Immobile hasnt really worked out. |
Posted By: Bitored

Injuries had a bit to do with it but more worryingly for Klopp is German sides started to cop on to his high pressing game. They weren't able to over run sides like they did when they won the league. As David Moyes learnt the hard way its one thing to do well at a club with low expectations, its a different ball game to do well at a club used to winning trophies. ------------- I won the Player of the Century award thanks to the people.Pele was second.He also came second behind Aryton Senna as Brazil's greatest sportsman.The award FIFA gave Pele isn't worth sh*t - Maradona |

Your not seriously comparing Kloop and Moyes situations?I don't think there is any comparison. Kloop has had huge success with Dortmund winning the double and getting them to CL final ,they also played a really good style of football.Moyes had done well on a low budget and got Everton punching above there weight but never looked comfortable from day one at United. |
Posted By: Bitored
Date Posted: 15 Apr 2015 at 8:47pm
I think its a very similar situation. Agreed Klopp has more European experience than Moyes. But perhaps if Everton were based in Westfalia it would have been an easier task to get them into Europe. My point is there is no guarantee Klopp will be comfortable at a Man City, Real or wherever else. Where anything less than first is complete failure. A few years ago Slaven Bilić was the golden child of Europe and destined to end up at a top team in England but the best he has managed so far is medicore Russian and Turkish club sides. Now maybe Klopp will turn out to be a Pep or Jose but he could just as easily be a David. ------------- I won the Player of the Century award thanks to the people.Pele was second.He also came second behind Aryton Senna as Brazil's greatest sportsman.The award FIFA gave Pele isn't worth sh*t - Maradona |

@Rossiemann: I think it he made 2-3 mistakes...... 1. Over a period of 5-6 years he didnt develope his tactics to fit to his ageing, injury effected team. You cannot expect a player at 25 maybe with 1 or 2 major injuries behind him to play like he did at 20..., add to that the mistakes in the transfer market (buying out of form players based on past achievements). 2. Players aged 19-20 at the begining of their careers will allow a manager shout, scream and belittle them in training, its a different story with a 25 year old millionare who has won a few domestic trophies, been to the WC and arrived back with a winners medal and even more so when he knows Barcelona, Man U.....are interested in him. 3 and maybe the most important of all that most people dont know..........at the beining of 2013/14 season they lost their fitness trainer Oliver Bartlett. He is the one most players credit with their fitness levels and good injury records. Look after he left and you will see a lot more muscle related injuries...... |

There is no way Chelsea, Spurs, Saints or liverpool will have a new manager next year. Man city will and he will be in the running for the job but he may not want it. He is probably more suited to the Man Utd or Arsenal job but he will need one of the managers to step down (i.e. asked to step down with a large suitcase full of cash). Cant see it happening. ------------- |

LVG will see out his 3 years at least at United.Obviously he wont be there long term but there is no way they will let him go to bring in Klopp this year that would be pure madness.At the moment LVG is the best man for the job and in 2 or 3 years time United can start looking for a new manager.Hard to know who they will look for then but I would guess Pep and Mourinho would be high on any list all depends whats happening at the time. Where are you getting the idea that United's squad is ageing(every squad is  ) ?United have the youngest average age of the current top 4 and second youngest in the league.The average age is 26 and only 2 first team regulars are over 30(RVP/Carrick) and only have 4 players in the squad who are over 30 and 2 of those are keepers. |

Any of you think that Klopp may have pulled a smart one and is lineing himself up for the Bayern Munich job????

Okay thick thread for me, Man u squad is young but they do need fresh blood. They have a bloated squad and too many players are average. Carrick and RVP are getting on and need to be replaced. I doubt Falcao's contract will be renewed and a defense with Jones and Smalling wont win the league. I cant see Maureen every going to Utd now. ------------- |

On a side note to this I think United would need to be on acid to hire Mourinho at any stage. And im not a Man U fan. Some of the stuff he goes at is disgraceful. For example, He put his fingers in the eye of Tito Vilanova, an opposing assistant manager during a game. I`m all for mind games and they can make for great pre text to games but there is a line and he regularly crosses it. From a CV point of view Mourhino would be one of/if not the leading candidate for that job. I`d imagine the next time United go looking for a manager they will want someone in the job for 10 years +. It would be a poor day in United's history if that man was Jose Mourhino. Bobby Charlton, a club legend and leading figure at the club has gone on record to say as much. ------------- I won the Player of the Century award thanks to the people.Pele was second.He also came second behind Aryton Senna as Brazil's greatest sportsman.The award FIFA gave Pele isn't worth sh*t - Maradona |

I don't think it is doubtful at all that Porto will knock them out. Bayern certainly have the team to overturn it but they were outplayed against Porto and were very lucky to get the goal they did. Porto are a very good side. I personally don't think Klopp would be interested in the Bayern job, simply because he has won the Bundesliga and been to a champions league final with Dortmund. What more does he have to do in German Football? A relatively young manager like Klopp probably wants a shot at a big English or Spanish side. At the moment his likely destinations are City or Real Madrid (id expect Ancelotti to call it a day there). ------------- I won the Player of the Century award thanks to the people.Pele was second.He also came second behind Aryton Senna as Brazil's greatest sportsman.The award FIFA gave Pele isn't worth sh*t - Maradona |
