    I don't follow football but klopp doing anything is good. I saw a picture of him smiling once and that was it for me.

      His laugh is even better, I love him. He is even a kind of leftist.

      “I'm on the left, of course,” Jürgen Klopp notes, as relayed by journalist Raphael Honigstein in his new book about the Liverpool manager. “More left than middle. I believe in the welfare state. I'm not privately insured. I would never vote for a party because they promised to lower the top tax rate.”

      “My political understanding is this,” he added. “If I am doing well, I want others to do well, too. If there's something I will never do in my life it is vote for the right.

        Thats about as good as it gets in football. So much fascism and right wing nonsense.

          This is Liverno, St Pauli, and Rayo Vallecano erasure

          Edit: Also, Celtic, Besiktas (i think), and Cristiano Lucarelli

            I think St Pauli is top of 2 Bundesliga. Promotion would be incredible.

            Did Liverno supporters call Berlusconi a pedo for an entire match last time they played? They love uncle joe so they're good in my book

              They're 3rd now, they've been wobbling a bit since they beat Dortmund in the Pokal. Hopefully they can get one of the top two spots they're only a point behind.

                It's a super tight race atop 2 Bundesliga. 4 points separate the top 5 teams with 5 games remaining. It could be any of them to be the top 2.

                I forget if there's a promotion playoff for the third spot in Germany, though. I basically only watch MLS with any regularity.

            Huge difference between players and fans. Lots of teams have leftist supporters. Marseille, roma, union berlin, but the players and coaches themselves arent. There were hella bolsonaro supporters on the brazilian national team, hella tories on england's squad. All this despite the fact that most of the players have working class origins.

            Klopp, bielsa, rashford, salah, are the exceptions not the rule.

    Quick reaction, full force, perfect follow through, fluid transition into the quick back-tap hug and back to business.

    10/10, would shake hands again
