Yes I was ecstatic when he took over at my only real German team BVB,saddened when he left... I met him and spoke to him on a few occasions,first when he was still a player.... I can only speak positive over him,and the then Mainz-players. Uwe Stover,was a neighbour,and he invited my son and I over a few times,Stover knew S.Freund,and always said he would like to play in a lower PL or championship team,unfortunately he took some late heavy career ending injuries. Even then Klopp,made a joke and said their own small clique were too old to contemplate going over & Stephan had a good strain and 2nd release of career,and it Opened up for him...A couple of lads including klopp already,taking interest in taking their coaching-badges. Klopp said,he wants to stay in Germany and see if he could cut it,then if the chance came,he would love to eventually coach in England...but was humble enough to say,there is a long,long learning path before he could consider it.!!! Funny thing is Uwe Stover and Klopp,came around and knowing I was always yapping on about BvB got me 2 tickets for Mainz-BVB when Mainz got promoted... Seen him once more,after he became BVB boss,and he greeted us,in the stadium...but life goes on.... In those few moments of sharing his and a clique of Mainz players company a group of fine lads,with a good sense of humour. Now it's been interesting to see him climb the footballing ladder..A guy I didn't know from Adam,and was a decent lad who I and my son just shared some quiet moments with... that's nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthStandUpperTier Posted 5 May 2019 Share Posted 5 May 2019 I think Brighton's only hope for next season is for the 3 teams that come up to be worse than they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like the whole Class of 92 love in affected the decision. And yes I know that he came in 96, but without the veneration of that era's players I doubt he would have had a sniff at the job. Clutching at a former glory instead of planning a new one. A sign of real desperation. I await the day that we appoint a 45 year old Vardy to instill some fast counter attacking football.

Koke Posted 5 May 2019 Share Posted 5 May 2019 They do have a point. If it wasn't for Liverpool the league would be over in February like it is in France and Germany (not this season obvs). Man City are miles ahead of everybody else. They're on a different solar system. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthStandUpperTier Posted 5 May 2019 Share Posted 5 May 2019 (edited) Just because there was 'slight' contact doesn't make it a penalty IMHO. Monreal wasn't really impeded and could have stayed on his feet if he wanted. And, yes, I am aware the same could be said of Maddison on a few occasions this season.

Our first team cost £25m, so I'm not sure how you managed to infer that I am criticising our own title win. That is literally the opposite of what I am saying. The title really shouldn't be any of Man City's business but they are up there by pure luck. They won the ownership lottery. Having the title gift wrapped and bought for you makes it less of an achievement in my eyes. What happened to Man City could have happened to any club. For me the whole Manchester City scenario is a disgrace to the Premier League ! A horrible ownership group who have bought a title. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
