Somebody said it earlier. I think Inter would be a great place for Klopp, given they apply a bit of patience and let him buy properly.

I do know that Florentino Pérez is really high on Klopp, and serious overtures were made, during the CL tie of two or three years ago. I also think Klopp is smarter than to drop himself in that den of wolves (the only reason The Simple One was given some time was due to the suffocating dominion of Barça).

Yeah, I mentioned Inter mainly because they'd be more patient than AC Milan, are similar to Dortmund in youth focus and certainly have the cache to retain top players if they win. However, they've just given Mancini keys to house to began renovation.


Klopp going to Real would maybe the most entertaining but I'm not sure I'd want to watch the fireworks of demanding Galacticos full sprint 20km a match if I were a Real fan.

I wonder if Klopp will go against the grain and choose a more Bielsa-esque path toward slightly smaller clubs with excellent youth development.

By the way, I saw you asked about Morata in a thread from a couple of days back.

I've watched a majority of Juve's matches and he's been improving in leaps and bounds as the season's gone on.

He's really excellent in their style where he gets a lot of longer balls played to feet in the counter mainly playing 1-2s with Tevez and whatever midfielder is top of the diamond.

Strengths are that he's quite a good passer in tight areas and has a nice "trickbag" to get past the first defender as well. Very quick and makes smart off the ball runs.

Needs work on his simple "poaching" skills though such as getting across his man in the box etc and has been good but not really clinical finishing chances.

Some time? It took him one season to surpass "the greatest team in history".
