    reading that made me think of a classic Shankly interview ....

    in a pre-game show the TV guy said "will it be 4-4-2 or 4-3-3 for Liverpool tonight?" before shoving the microphone into Shanks's face.

    Bill looked like the guy had just farted: "you don't half talk rubbish don't ye lad?"

    football science has come a long way :)

    Haha I’m so overwhelmed with the number of news media sites - I thought “si” in the url was a Spanish magazine until I clicked the link. :ROFLMAO:

    Alright, someone start the thread then. I'm sold. :D :D

    Seriously though, what the hell was happening in the league from 1995-1999? That was before we got major coverage in the USA, so I have no idea besides stories I hear.

    Speaking to Omnisport, Johnston said: "I was at the club for a long, long time and the name Bill Shankly would always come up. There'd always be a story from the old guys there like Tommy Smith. Having seen dozens of managers come through, two words come to mind… Jurgen Klopp.

    "You're mentioning him in the same breath as Bill Shankly. You don't have to say much more. When talking about Klopp, I think heart, love, desire, passion, knowledge, craft, team spirit, fantasy because he has a touch of the fantasist about him and so do the Scousers. He has a sense of humour. He's genuinely funny. He recognises the Scousers like Shankly did. He wasn't a Scouser."

    Bloody hell. Take out the FAC and LC games - where we never play our regular starters - that makes it 11 games lost which is a 90% win rate.
