Jurgen Klopp for PM!

[the other bob wilson]

Without wishing to create yet another Brexit debate, I've often thought that Klopp and Guardiola are more than just "football men" - they could have been successful in many different facets of life.

Oh look you created another Brexit debate .

Warnock talks a lot more sense on Brexit make a real decent PM .

I'll drop Alistair Campbell a tweet .

In this world of bully and harassment , lets remember how much a political bully Alistair Campbell was.

There is certainly good and bad people on both sides of any debate. Alistair Campbell however, whilst I have sympathy for his demons that many of us have, is not a nice person at all. He is appalling abusive and bigoted on twitter for example.

Lots of shooting the messenger going on here it seems when all I did was talk about a couple of football managers.

Whenever Alistair Campbell talks about lying the words pot and kettle spring to mind.

Horrible man. I can think of very very few people more divisive or less able to engage in respectful debate than him.

Him and Klopp strike me as very different people.

Jurgen Klopp: “My political understanding is this: if I am doing well, I want others to do well, too. If there’s something I will never do in my life it is vote for the right.

It's such a basic thing, if I'm doing well than I also want others to do well. We have the oppositive in this country, with many who are doing well and even those who aren't doing well are always looking to punch down on either the working class or refugees.

That's not true though. That's you're interpretation of it, but it's not true.

How else do you explain voting for people who repeatedly cut benefits for the most vulnerable and have also overseen 12 years of wage stagnation?

So you don’t think that Klopp and Guardiola are exceptional men who could make a career for themselves in politics if they wanted because you don’t like Alistair Campbell?

I know Klopp favoured Remain in the 2016 referendum and appears to have left of centre views, but I know nothing about Guardiola’s politics apart from a few things he’s said about Catalonia.

No, I think Klopp and Guardiola (and indeed many football managers) are exceptional men who would make great politicians.

But the article was still hilariously sycophantic and written by a complete arse.

So, as I said four days ago, you were shooting the messenger.

No, I think it was an interesting to thing to post and I agree with you on Klopp and Guardiola. The article just went way too far and was cringeworthy!

I'm shooting, so to speak, the author.
