I love Gary Neville as an analyst: “Klopp looking round for someone to punch”.

Great game. Different world.

Do you think the man city goalkeeper could play in midfield for us ?

His passing is amazing 😊

Whelan-esque, in fact.

I missed the 2nd half , I take it he had a bad one

Listening to the post match interviews with Klopp and Guardiola was very refreshing, welcome change from the cliched bollocks and bitterness the likes of Wenger and Mourinho come out with week after week, win, lose or draw.

Agreed. I usually get miffed when 5Live stop a caller to head over to a live manager interview like some earth shattering revelation will ensue which must be heard ASAP, but both of them were decent for a change.

Arguably the two greatest managers in the world right now. How nice it is that they both love football and are not sore losers either.

You can tell they both genuinely love their jobs and enjoyed the game. They are the only managers whose interviews i make a point of listening to.

If I still drank I would listen to every interview with Warnock and turn it into a drinking game, taking a swig every time he said 'referee' or 'linesman'/'referees assistant'. Two swigs if he says 'in this division/at this level' whilst criticising them.

I do like Klopp. A refreshing change from the usual sour grapes and ungracious big club managers.

Mourinho isn't even a gracious winner, I can't listen to any of his interviews any longer.

Have you forgotten his stroppy schoolboy routine after the draw with Everton? Easy to be a great guy after a win.
