I'm sure they were hoping for two weeks off when it was announced.

Probably.

Klopp says he is going to play the kids and he won't even be the manager for it!

 

That might rattle a few cages ..

[UniFox21]

 

This is just bullshit man. Didn't need to come out and say this, respect the cup. If he wanted to avoid a replay he should've played a better team. 

 

Rest as many players as he wants, no need to come out like a moaning 6 year old. Didn't need this press release, could've just played the kids anyhow.

Klopp’s pathetic. I can’t believe the amount of people who fall for the smiley persona.

Let's be honest, Liverpool couldn't care less about this cup. This season is all about winning the PL for the first time.

He’s overstepped a line on that. 
 

So much for his act when he first came to England about respecting the domestic game and its traditions. What a total arsehole

The willy puller has eluded to the club being told to ‘respect the winter break’ and not play any friendlies. 
 

Just **** off Klopp

[Soar Fox]

How fvcking miserable is Klopp “I’m playing the kids and I won’t even be there myself” if he was so bothered about not wanting a replay why not start a few more regulars get a few goals then take them off.

Should be fined for “not managing” the replay if he does that.

 

I’m fed up of managers of PL clubs who bang on about scrapping replays. They have the most resources in the richest league in the World ffs.

[RowlattsFox]

It's a bit shit to have replays in a period which is supposed to be a winter break. Klopp can pick whatever team he likes but he should be managing them. Disrespectful to Shrewsbury more than anything else.

Should of put a team out capable of beating Shrewsbury then. Can't do that and then complain about extra games and lack of a break.

 

Btw, is it pronounced Shrewsbury or Shrewsbury? I've always said Shrewsbury, but I've heard it pronounced Shrewsbury too.

[Super_horns]

Surely they can play the same sort of side that he fielded against Everton?

 

And well why isn't Klopp going to manage - where will he be ?!

 

Scouting or on his own holiday ?

 

I mean our management team managed to do 2 games in 2 days!

[StanSP]

I don't even buy this stuff about playing the kids as an alternative to the game in the winter break period.

 

Why not just give Shrewsbury a bye if he feels that strongly about it? 

[Foxin_Mad]

Dock them 21 points for being *****.

Well that’s it really. Watford accepted the scenario. Didn’t overly go on about it. 

[Corky]

Why do these managers act as though playing football is a really bad thing? Replays have been here for over 100 years, they haven't suddenly been introduced to piss you off. You have a maximum of two replays in the FA Cup this season if you start in the third round.

 

Get rid of replays, get rid of the League Cup- why don't you stop trying to ruin it for the many because you can't beat a League One team at 2-0 up.

[Leicesterpool]

Manager's always moan about fixture congestion and all that, but lets face it this is the English game! they need to accept that! we have the most teams & the most leagues. They talk changes to english game better does it make our league better, we've just had VAR introduced for example... so far that's brought confusion and less goals, meaning less entertainment for us fans. If they scrapped replays it would just be sign for me of the FA looking after big clubs rather think about the smaller clubs. Is all the compaining about the fixture conguestion just coming from the premier league clubs or lower league clubs.

I'm not one of the anti Liverpool brigade here on foxestalk. I appreciate the way they play and have always had a soft spot for them.

 

But this is complete and under bollocks.

 

For Shrewsbury tonight that was one of the greatest nights in their clubs history. They deserve to go to anfield and have a proper cup tie. The players, owners, fans and management team have earned that right. And Klopp has basically said fuch you to them and fuch you to the English game.

 

He could have managed the game played a couple of first teamers coming back from injury and no one would have cared. But to come out and say this now will hurt ticket sales and the prestige of the tie.

Klopp is an arsehole. It's all moan moan moan from the managers of the top teams. How about you don't go on a far eastern tour or a USA tour in pre-season, stay local and keep the players fresher.

Shrewsbury still go to Anfield though and now have an even better chance of progressing to what could be an even bigger tie in the next round and maybe even beyond.

Kloppy, I cannot stand the baffoon 

hope he gets a big ba$tard fine for his comments about the replay

Yes agreed but now it will be in front of a half empty anfield against a load of youth team players managed by some coach. Definitely not the same for the players and the 8k fans that will be traveling.
