anyone else got the feeling that he’s told the squad he’s off at the end of the season…

If he has, they aren't exactly going all out to give him a memorable send off

I think he's off. I think he doesn't want a Klopp send off so he's keeping stum. No energy from him yesterday on the bench, a real strange game withe selection and late subs. To be honest if he was staying he would have said, or perhaps he's waiting for the 115 case to be finished- which would tell me he has doubts. Either way I think he's tapped out and to be honest I'd like to see a different style of play so I'm not arsed if he goes. Great Manager but boring football, time for a change cos Pep can't

I don't know if he's off or not. But for fuck sake will he ever tell us what he's doing.

He clearly hasn’t told the squad or it would have leaked. I hope uses the international break to set out his intentions. Not unreasonable to ask him to do this. If he doesn’t extend by at least a year the Press will suggest he’s scuttling to avoid a relegation sanction.

It's the add 2 and 2 and get 5 brigade.
Edu off meaning Arteta will be off and coming to City.
It's a NO from me.

No thanks

I'd rather go for Alonso with a five year plan. If Pep wants to stay, it should be on 2-3 year extention to rebuild the squad. 1 year isn't enough for me albeit I thinks he's the best manager out there.

I get that, and do feel like that a lot of the time. I think with Pep it’s more complicated. He’s been here longer than anywhere, including his beloved Barca. His Mrs isn’t full time in Manchester. His mate is leaving at the end of the season.

I genuinely think he probably wants to call it a day for a bit, but he’s worried he’ll miss it too much.

Would give the squad a massive lift though if he announced an extension. And at a time we need it most.

Honestly I don't think this'll be the case. It would have been leaked by now if so

I do think he himself, has reached or is coming up to a crossroads in his life though. Where he doesn't know what he wants to do

We are are cool club. No panic. They must know one way or the other. It’s not like any other institution in sport. We all enjoy the spectacle. The owner chairman are just cold, it’s a compliment not a criticism.

I can see he was moaning loads in his interview pre-Sporting.

Sounds to me like he needs a break from football.

He just doesn't seem to be that interested if he hasn't got a full squad (or close to it ) to pick from.

I always said he will probably fuck off if the going gets too tough to compete this year..injuries have been terrible but so has our transfer policy this year and it looks like our luck has ran out.

If we get spanked tonight ( and if we play like we did the other day then we certainly will be spanked) it will certainly fuck up our players confidence.

We need to win to shake it off.
THEY SAY SWEARING IS DUE TO A LIMITED VOCABULARY. I KNOW THOUSANDS OF WORDS, BUT I STILL PREFER "FUCK OFF" TO "GO AWAY"

Totally agree. It would actually be refreshing to have a change of style at the club, rather than the sideways passing 30 yards out that seems to happen every game without any real excitement. If Pep isn't giving at least a 2 year commitment then he should just go at the end of the season.
