Thats very unfair on him. He never got a fair shake and had a circus squad.
He did say some ballsy things in pressers but I'm not going to mark him down from Chelsea. That club has been a joke for 2 seasons (hope it continues too).
They'd be so much better with him under Ange. They looked much more complete in the brief time the two were together. Very weird statement to make, given Kane carried Spurs despite shite managerial runs pre Ange.
I agree with the sentiment that peak Ole ball is better than what we've seen this season.
The sentiment however is that stripping away bad habits and forcing players to adopt a style reliant on technical ability will be ugly and make them look...
You can Google it. Came from various sources including Bild. The Leverkusen CEO initially denied it but clarified that "some agreements are verbal and not in writing".
It's been mentioned almost everywhere that he had this agreement.
Yes. The fact he had a stipulation where he also was allowed to leave his club of real bayern or Liverpool came calling shows where his heart lies on that.
I agree with your sentiment but I don't think our size matters to ex Liverpool players who have strong affiliations with that club. One could argue him as being a club legend too.
Anyway, we can agree to disagree.
We aren't bigger than Real, and he'd go there. Liverpool themselves are an absolute behemoth club, and he's an adored ex player so he'd probably go there over us in his PL reign.
You can disagree with it but it's 99% the case.
It doesn't...
He doesn't need to be Gerrard to have strong affiliations with his club. You won't see RvP considering Liverpool if he was sought after by every club in the world, and you won't see Xabi consider us.
What do you mean so? You can't just make up rivalries and claim they're comparable to United and Liverpool. He is a well loved ex Liverpool player who still has strong feelings toward the club. It's obvious that would stop him from considering...
The rivalry of Bayern and Leverkusen is not anywhere remotely as close as United and Liverpool. United and Liverpool is probably the biggest rivalry in football.
