So, Beck was sent off for being bitten?
Talk about adding insult to injury!

That’s really too much information, but one wonders why they ended up together. He was never a looker.

Some would say, they are both what would be called - ‘Double Baggers’ :0)

No… He initially kicked out at one of their players first

This Norwegian has ceased to be!

The article might be a grammatical nightmare, but I absolutely believe every word.

Lijnders’ career at Salzburg will be over before it even began. Disastrous results just keep piling up.

Yeah they made a decent/ok start but this isn’t good enough.

Looks like Bellamy has charmed Allen back into the fold for Wales, with Rambo’s and Ampadu’s injuries.

That’s my cue to go and make sure my boots still fit

Call me up, coach

Mind your peas and cues.

I know we should probably focus on the evolution of the team, but on the other, less pragmatic hand, I also now really want to see Bale and Ledley return.

What a time. Terrible song, but what a time.

It’s not that bad a song wasn’t a patch on Alphabeat’s Danish one mind.

In slightly different news, that was the first match where Clark and Bajcetic were both on the pitch at the same time.

A massive test for Pep, and it was part of the reason why I never wanted him to replace Klopp. He has to be the main guy making those decisions amidst the pressure. Show the ability to dig deep, motivate the squad, and make the right tactical decisions without Klopp standing behind you. Really hope he turns it around.

Otherwise it will seem he is a good #2, but not a great leader… which isn’t a terrible career if he recognizes and accepts his role.

Salzburg have conceded 23 goals in the first 15 games so far this season…

It’s a huge gap between number 2 and number 1.

Pep is a great coach, our players all spoke highly of him, and Klopp really depended on him. He had great players to work with, and it all seemed a great fit.

Now that he is out on his own, it doesn’t look good at the moment. I don’t know what Salzburg are like in terms of expectations, and also giving the manager plenty of time.

On a related note, did Pep also take the Portuguese coach we had, I forget his name now?

Kornmayer and Matos both followed him to Salzburg, yes.
