Match Thread Bayer Leverkusen (H) - Tues 20:00

I just can't see Xabi doing a better job than Arne thus far.

The thing that never made sense to me with Xabi is his style of play was such a polar opposite of Klopp’s, it would have required a major surgery for the squad. Slot was able to… you know it’s coming… slot in a lot more seamlessly and improve us in exactly the ways the squad needed to be improved. So far looks like an inspired appointment.

Loved the video - class all round from the club, the fans and Xabi himself. A club that inclusive, that much at ease with itself, is in a good place to go on and win big things.

I wonder if appointing Xabi would have been such an earthquake in terms of footballing style. IMO a guy as "together" as Xabi has always been would have been capable of looking at what he inherited and working out how best to move forward with it consistent with his own principles. VERY happy with how Slot's working out though.

As for Lucho calling Bobby "little" bro - cheeky bugger. :smuggrin:
