    So, why is he leaving then? I've just watched the 2 minute clip on the BBC website from his press conference and it might as well be a politician talking for the sense it makes.

    He's going to rock up in Saudi for an absolute ton of money.

    He says he doesn't have the energy for it any more.

    Almost the same thing happened in Dortmund and he took about half a year off before rocking up at Anfield. I'm not sure his styles play well to international management but I reckon he wont have a club job for a good year or two, if ever.

    If Xabi Alonso is lined up as his replacement, it’s not that bad. Well it is, but that would make the best out of the situation.

    No, they just queued for 12 hours to walk past her coffin and that was actually less dramatic.

    As is my understanding of English primary schools, this would have likely led to a FULL LOCKDOWN.

    Alonso has failure written all over it. He's clearly a student of the game, but you need character in spades to manage a club like Liverpool.

    Less interesting as well though.

    Well, not queue cam, I guess. All hail the queue.

    A game between Anderlecht and Genk had a big VAR error. Apparently something to do with a penalty. Genk took it to court and have won, meaning the game must now be replayed.

    Big ol' can of worms opened up there.

    Jurgen's legacy will be the fabled 39th game.

    Replay the Spurs game, lose 10-0 and lose the league on goal difference.

    Why is Chelsea - Villa tonight if it isn't on TV? Are the FA just trying to spite fans? Although I suppose Waff has made it all the way from Dundee so maybe it isn't an issue.

    Having four ties on tonight is ridiculous.

    I absolutely hate Friday night football. Friday nights are for unwinding, not for swearing at Malo Gusto.

    Friday night football, and even Saturday lunchtime football really have unparalleled ability to ruin a weekend if you are overly invested, which is pretty much par for the course.

    Friday night is the only night here really, which is a pain in the hole when you don't live near the ground.

    Watching Klopp's first press conference that's doing the rounds, Jesus, Premier League football manager almost ages you as badly as being Prime Minister.

    Nice to see the TV audience getting the stadium VAR experience in the Spurs game there.

    The gaps in behind City's defence are mad but either it's Timo getting ignored or hideous overhit passes. On the other hand, KDB will get about 3 assists per minute against that Spurs high line. Great game.

    Slightly underwhelming result, I doubt we'll win at Villa Park. At least in the draw to see whether it's worth throwing everything at the replay.

    The crowd saw lots of backwards goal kicks and attempts to draw the press though so they can at least tell their grandkids about those. Plus they have a full two days free for shopping now and the fans travelling up for the replays will boost GDP.

    That's probably a foul on the 'keeper. Very obviously not going to be given though.

    Is this a widespread phenomenon now? I've noticed Brighton doing it, but if it is spreading wider then it's worrying times. Inform the WHO, or whoever.
