Pep's contract situation | 2 year extension confirmed! (pg1817)

[King KdB of Belgium]

The players will have been told what sort of response to give to the journalists. They all can't say the same thing. If they did then it would be obvious that the players have been coached in what to say.

I see reports in spain claim Laporta as candidate wants to bring Klopp in as the ideal manager to oversee a rebuild of the first team, if elected.

Let's see to what level the UK media will latch onto that story or hound klopp or the players with questions about it!

The players will all be told to say the same thing. They undertake regular media training from the academy right through to the first team and they will be briefed about media spins to watch out for.

So,giving a different response will fool the journo's into thinking it's the players honest response?
Clever stuff.....bit like a Jedi mind trick.

"fuck off you ****" is a good response? Easy to remember too

Interesting mate. Klopp to Barca would go against their philosophy.

I agree.

My point was more that the second a presidential candidate mentioned Pep as a wish target, the media jumped on it. Now another candidate is claimed to.be interested in Klopp, let's see if thensame scenario gets the same attention.

Not sure in what way you mean. As opposed to hiring former player legends you mean? Maybe. But he would no doubt be a good appointment for a top club, and could play a part in building a team for sure. Given he didn't spend any money at all whatsoever at Liverpool, Barcelona may think he can build their team for free with nothing but club trained players without buying anyone. Heck some of the coutinho money might even come with him as a transferable perk!

I don't know if anyone has posted something similar to this since last night's Youth Cup win, so apologies if it has.

For Pep, who talks about retiring to be a youth coach in a few years, the prospect of overseeing a somewhat golden generation of half a dozen talents on the level of Foden/Sancho coming through would be very appealing IMO.
