Klopp being lauded for coming out against the ESL...

TBH I thought he sat on the fence when interviewed after the Monday night game unless he said something different yesterday!

He did more than his counterpart at Chelsea and as much as pep did yesterday so what do you want really. He backed up his position on it when he said his comments from 2019 on the proposed ESL have not changed. They have gave him everything he wanted to take LFC back to the top and all that with actually no expense compared to Man U and city in the transfer window. He was between a rock and hard place and spoke as much as he could on the subject. He was more intent on protecting his players than lambasting the perpetrators so that's fine with most LFC fans I'm sure.

He's been there 5 mins, any comments he made whatsoever would have been deemed insincere.

Seeing as apologies are all the rage I wonder if Klopp will have the manners to apologise to Gary Neville....
You're a bit behind. Neville already apologised to Klopp "live and exclusive" on Sky Sports.
But sure Gary has just single-handedly saved football don't you know!

What exactly is Gary's intentions with Salford and just took him the 16 years to slate the Glazers, funnily enough a few weeks after United had appointed a director of football. Neville spoke well but he's clearly a huge hypocrite.

Yeah be interesting to see where Neville goes now, been conspicuous for his lack of criticism of the Glazers for years. Half-heartedly tried to justify it the other night by saying that that was Man Utd, and you could still watch them,  and what were the alternatives but the Super League was the whole of football being attacked...

But in the list of bad guys in the current scenario he's way down the list

Whatever he did or didn't do in the past, whatever his own personal reasons for making this stand, Neville has been at the forefront of the backlash which brought down this monstrosity.

He deserves a lot of credit for that IMO. So do supporters groups like Spion Kop 1906 and the Chelsea fans yesterday.

Klopp, Milner, Shaw and the rest do too, as they were not in an easy position.

With all that being said I think a proper apology would be to buy Halland and Mbappe, that would ease some of the hurt 😉😉

Story of the last three months. Messing about, not taking chances.

Just sickening that they get a dodgy VAR reprieve and then blow it anyway.

Very hard to see them making top four now.

Roll on next season!

Only thing worse than not being in the Champions League would be being in the Europa League.
If they don't get Top 4 which looks likely then I hope they finish far enough down the table that they don't get Europa League either.

What a pathetic ending.

Could have been a defeat, so a draw was a fair result all round. Handy run in so plenty time to pick up points
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Should have been 4 or 5 up, you could see that coming a mile away though.

Compared to what could have been this week, it's actually nice to feel sickened. Something to play for and losing is so much better than dead rubber matches which don't matter a f**k.

I don't care too much if they make Europa League. Play the second string. If they get through the group, then go all out to win it. It's still a European trophy with the prize of a Champions League spot. I

Even before the Super League plan was formally announced, it came under heavy bombardment. "It's an absolute disgrace," said Gary Neville, the ex-Manchester United player turned Sky Sports pundit, as news of the breakaway leaked on Sunday afternoon. "The [club owners] are nothing to do with football in this country. There are a hundred-odd years of history in this country from fans who have loved these clubs and they need protecting." Clips of his on-air rant went viral on social media and marked "a turning point", says an executive involved in Super League talks. Fan groups, players, coaches and rival clubs were united in criticism. There was official condemnation from governments including France, Spain, Italy and Greece.
