Where were u sat last
night Peppy…
Aww, isn’t this a lovely scene, Fergie and Jurgen together.
The Premier League sponsors and 92 league managers chose Klopp over Pep and Eddie Howe, which proves that while the world of football Twitter accepts and champions sports washing projects, people within the game clearly don’t.
With the exception of the officials.
Pep has won it three times in the last few years, I think managers see three finals and a point within Man City for what it is. Fans on Twitter and elsewhere can’t, they only care about one upmanship that’s why winning the transfer window and player “bantz” matters more and trophies are only mentioned by these people when it’s to mock another. Arsenal fans mocking Spurs for not winning a trophy seriously? They didn’t have Europe and still lost out on a CL place to paraphrase the great Clement Attlee, ‘a period of silence on your part would be most appreciated’.
Twelve years ago Sir Alex Ferguson advised Jurgen Klopp to ‘join a club with history’.
Before handing Klopp his award last night, Ferguson jokingly said: “I should have told him to go to Scunthorpe United!”
Klopp’s response?
“I couldn’t understand anything he said!"

It’s obvious Klopp should have won manager of the month most months.

Does beg the question, how often does the winner of the annual award do so without having won a monthly one that season? I can’t imagine it happens that often. Given that we have got to every final while taking the league race to the last day and finishing a point behind it does seem particularly odd that Klopp hasn’t won a monthly award this season.
Don’t fans pick them…
I’m stuck on Nuno was manager of the month in Aug and fired by Xmas…
Fake.
Not a pint in sight.
Jurgen, are those cigarettes on the table? I though you had quit. And that looks like a 20 year old flip phone. You can’t YouTube scout on one of those.
I don’t believe it’s cigarettes and that’s a glasses/sunglasses case,
You’ve had a mare here, @Nobluff
Ok, case probably, cig’s box is still suspicious.
It’s not a cig box, wrong colour. they’re all grey in over here
