Seriously. The guy played for Mainz for 9 years and coached there for 7. Why wouldn't he be excited that they beat the best team in Germany away from home?
Hold up. It's not even that. He's not excited that Bayern lost. The interviewer asked him about the shakeup at the top of the Premier League table due to the latest results. Klopp said he didn't know about the Premier League results, he "just knows that Bayern lost [laugh]." Now social media is spinning it as if Klopp is taking pleasure that Bayern lost.
OK, here is what was reported on ESPN: Indeed, Klopp hardly gave what you might call a diplomatic response upon learning of Bayern's 2-1 home defeat to Mainz, laughing loudly at his old side successfully managing to defeat the Bavarian giants 2-1 on their own patch. and BBC: Klopp can't contain his laughter when Bayern Munich lose... So yes, when I read this, I say EFF Klopp. I don't speak German, so I don't know exactly what he said. If his comments were different, please post in English so I could understand them.
Dude just take five minutes and watch the whole interview. Someone posted it on the previous page. It's completely in English. I'll also copy and paste what I posted above in case you want the Cliffs Notes version: The interviewer asked him about the shakeup at the top of the Premier League table due to the latest results. Klopp said he didn't know about the Premier League results, he "just knows that Bayern lost [laugh]." Now social media is spinning it as if Klopp is taking pleasure that Bayern lost.
So what's wrong if klopp liked it and laughed at bayern for losing I'm sure Pep would love it when Madrid loses Why are some people so sensitive to such.
Well, managers are managers, not fans. They're not supposed to show Schadenfreude like we do. It's unprofessional. But again, Klopp wasn't laughing at the fact that Bayern lost, he's laughing at the fact that the only result he knew of that day was Bayern's loss, instead of the Premier League results he was asked about.
Managers are human. Most start off as fans before becoming managers later in life. Last year. Pep as bayern coach was at a Barcelona game showing high emotion. That should be unprofessional but I don't care cos I understand him. If in some years time I end up as a coach, I would still in public enjoy Bayern winning and gloat or Schadenfreude Madrid loss I would expect Klopp to celebrate a Bayern loss and I'm not offended
Honestly, so what if he is? He has a long history with Mainz. I'd expect him to take pleasure in Mainz beating Bayern
For a second lets forget about the offside, because it was only marginal, but every time is see these types of goals against us I want to punch someone in the face. Its like he (Pep) never learns. Most recently Juve hit us hard with this left to right fast break now a couple weeks later its the same with Mainz. We insist on playing this ridiculously high defensive line with 2-3 players, when we know it's suicide against the counter attack. In fact had player(#27) been approx. 6 inches closer there wouldn't have been offside call because Bernat would have been further into Mainz's territory than #27, that's how high we play.
I'm just saying I hate when the media spins things to get fans riled up and click on their bullshit "stories." I also hate when fans fall for this shit instead of actually reading articles / watching interviews.
I hate when folks here in the Bayern forum stick up for that piece of crap A-Hole who used nonstop passive-aggressive behavior towards Bayern when he coached in the BL. He constantly cracked jokes and poked at Bayern management and coaches when Dortmund won, but then was all smiles and handshakes (with no retractions) when Bayern won. He has always been a two faced, lying scumbag. He plays to a crowd with the jumps, fist pumping, and fun pre and post game interviews. I really hate when Bayern fans fall for that SHIT and think he is some sort of (a) great manager - he's not, and (b) some really nice guy. FANCULO Klopp.
