Last time Klopp won a league title: 2012
Last time Mourinho won a league title: 2014

Who's the modern manager?

Klopp's done well to give Liverpool a clear identity after a year of managing them but people doubting Mourinho's ability to do the same are in for a shock.
Klopp.

Sounds a bit ill thought out to me.

And if Mourinho is considered "the past" 2 years after winning the PL then what is Wenger?

The last of his kind, but I wasn't posting about him.

You're a BIT DEFENSIVE.

Is this some sort of threat?
Not at all, nobody could call me a violent man. It'd be a shame if you got a reputation for flying off the handle about Mourinho every time he is questioned, as you have here.

Just be careful.

I'm just looking for you to elaborate on the stance that Mourinho is "the past," if you can't/don't want to then no worries.

And I don't think you're in a position to talk to anybody else on here about their reputation.

Here is what I said: "Good read by Jonathan Wilson about Klopp vs Mourinho framed as modernity vs the past."

I think your anger has clouded your judgement and/or made you a bit confused. Please calm down. Not the first time you've flown into a vicious rage on this web site.

And I don't think you're in a position to talk to anybody else on here about their reputation.
I am a legend round here.

And I assumed that by you sharing the article and by your wording that you wanted to engage in a dialogue about Klopp being a "modern" manager and Mourinho being or becoming "the past."

Ha! We all know about your vicious rage, your temper has gotten you into trouble many times.

Jesus christ Nilsson wind your neck in.

Anyway, this is opta's combined eleven based on their numbers. Sort of makes sense, I suppose.

Are you referring to the time Smat kept typing "FUCK OFF PAGNELL YOU BEIGE c***!" again and again in the Shoutbox?

Because that was an absolute disgrace.

And I assumed that by you sharing the article and by your wording that you wanted to engage in a dialogue about Klopp being a "modern" manager and Mourinho being or becoming "the past."
I think journos probably feel under pressure to come up with some reductive angle when writing about two managers going head-to-head. It's obviously not as simple as modernity vs the past, and there are many other ways you could see the match-up (experience vs less experience, perennial winner vs perennial losing finalist, attack vs defence, heavy metal vs funereal dirge) but I found it a good read and thought I'd post it in here, because why not.

Since you seem to want a dialogue, I was especially intrigued by the bit about the way Mourinho's players used to worship him. It likened people who worked with him at Porto with members of a cult, and you got the impression those at Chelsea (first spell) and Inter would throw themselves on a grenade for him too. Hard to believe the players at Chelsea (last season) and United now would give the same impression (especially as he's criticised many of them publicly). Interestingly results have dipped at the same time, and this season has been the worst start he's had at any of his clubs since Uniao Leiria. Are his relationships with his players suffering because of his results, or is it the other way around? Or is my perception that he doesn't have a good bond with United's players plain wrong? What do you reckon?

On the Klopp side, it's hard to argue that he's been a thrilling addition to the mix. He has very different qualities to Mourinho and I much prefer watching his teams play. Would have been my post-Wenger choice.
