Not only that, but Klopp was competing with this financially doped Pep team for those titles. Lost out by a point of 2 on 2 separate occasions as well. I honestly think that Liverpool side was much more impressive. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the very small price he has to pay is that he’s a selfish turncoat. That’s just an indisputable fact. The point I was making is that I find it pathetic for Villa fans to celebrate his success with another club who have cheated to succeed. I think it’s a real loser’s mentality. And I find it bizarre from supporters of a club that won its own European cup in the 80s. And by the way, there are plenty of sports where people don’t just abandon their teams for a better chance of personal success elsewhere. Real team spirit and loyalty does exist elsewhere thankfully. Where, in Disney movies? It's extremely rare to happen in real life. Unless there are stringent rules in place to prevent hoarding of talent, the top talent eventually congeals in the same spots. That's how it goes. "Selfish turncoat" is just a bitter way of wording "career-minded". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we won't want to be seeing that sense of team spirit and loyalty in our top targets this summer, otherwise we won't be signing anybody else.

est1874 Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 All that money spent, one of the best attacks in football history assembled, and it took a DM to win them the Champions League against objectively weaker opposition. Guardiola's supposed to be some kind of genius then, eh? Spare me. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy clappers look about as happy here as when I bring home a fresh loaf of bread. Can remember the FA Cup day "once in a lifetime, I'm not getting pissed" Sat in the spoons with a beer and a breakfast at 9am...3 lads walk in with captain Morgan hats on "where'd you get them from?" "seaman and Townsend are over the road pouring pints" so I necked what was left of my pint, ran over the road, got a pint poured by David seaman, necked that, got a hat and ran back to the spoons I got pissed... Now imagine a game that kicked off at 10pm..... There's got to be some pissed up nutters somewhere in the city crowd but that video looks like holiday makers on a lovely day out organised by their TUI guide Edited June 11, 2023 by villa4europe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you keep winning everything every year though it gets less and less exciting each time. Whether you are a Man City fan, a Villa fan or a fan of the Dog and Duck pub team.

Yeahhhhhh but…. You are forgetting Man City’s hidden 2 billion in “extras” that are conveniently not listed/hidden.

And if you know your club are horrendous cheats it has to impact on it as well. I genuinely couldn't get excited if we won the champs league doing what they've done.

That he's this genius, sport changing manager. Again I’m not sure what is mythical about that. He’s one of the best managers ever. It’s pretty hard to argue against that imo. If you disagree then fair enough but calling it a myth is really strange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
