Really really wouldn’t want Diego Simeone as manager, EVER. To boring to defensive first attacking rarely if at all or score early then shut up shop.

If the season gets null and voided, or matches are played behind closed doors I can foresee a whole rash of lawsuits, from clubs in the lower leagues especially who rely on gate receipts for their income.

There is already a lot of talk in Scotland of numerous clubs which could go bust and that’s in the best case scenario of matches being played behind closed doors! I fear the same fate awaits a number of clubs in the English game as well. Bury have already gone, Bolton went to the brink, I fear the game faces huge difficulties in the coming weeks and months.

Very huge difficulties I would say especially with the forthcoming Euros as well

Euros will probably be cancelled, can't see how it can be justified to host a tournament that's played all across Europe

Disappointing last night.
Time to focus on Everton, winning the league is so huge for us.

Right now I struggle to see how football can go on, even behind closed doors. Fans will still go to the grounds even if they cant get in.

Difficult balancing act in truth, given how the English football league and it’s clubs are now on record as being ‘strongly opposed to playing matches behind closed doors because of the financial cost of the loss of matchday revenue’

Are you able to say that now in hindsight because you have Klopp & on the verge of a title. If this was 5 yrs ago when he was at his peak, winning La Liga ahead of Barca & Madrid & taking them to a Champions League final and he was available would you not of snapped him up?

If I was the director of club i'd snap up Nagelsmann before Bayern inevitably do

Not really, was never a fan of his football truth be told. Dont get me wrong its an effective style but it aint good to watch. IMO its easier to play 10 men behind the ball style only attacking when you need then play attacking entertaining football. His style just isn't a football philosophy I enjoy. That being said I am surprised someone has snapped him up seeing the job he has done.

   

Jurgen Klopp nails - "Jurgen Klopp: I've said before that football always seems the most important of the least important things. Today, football and football matches really aren’t important at all. If it’s a choice between football and the good of the wider society - no contest. Really, it isn’t"
