Our deepest condolences are with the loved ones of Diogo Jota and his brother, Andre, and everyone connected with Liverpool FC following today’s heartbreaking news.
People celebrating a manager being sacked just doesn't sit right with me at all. Of course you can be glad that the club came to the decision that you wanted, but using that as a form of celebration is pretty tone deaf.
If anything, it's a shame and an embarrassment that this club finds itself in this position yet again. A sad day for the club to have to be making these decisions in the first place. If anything, frustration and melancholy would be my natural go-to feelings when the reality of how shit we really are as a club reaches such desperate times as it did yesterday.
Some big accounts on this app have been bouncing around on my timeline more vocal in their joy yesterday than they were when we won a trophy back in May.
I'm not calling for a day of mourning but some maturity and context wouldn't hurt.
While I agree that the decision was the correct one, we've been here too many times to think that a change of manager is the missing piece of the jigsaw and will change anything in the longterm.
We had some unbelievable moments under Erik and we achieved more in this two year 'banter era' than most clubs do in a generation.
Cheers Bald, I for one wish you all the best.
"Straight at McTominay and there's a goal to shoot at.."
Will never forget this moment in the derby before lockdown:
- The Old Trafford roar
- Ole's iconic celebration
- Bruno and Martial celebrating and hugging on the bench
Thank you, McTominay ♥️
