After watching the last pre match presser, I was curious on a couple things that I was hoping you could shed some light on.

1) what is the media's overall opinions on Klopp so far. I remember you saying that the media loved Rodgers because he was a complete idiot. But with Klopp he seems to just not put up with the dumb questions and almost seems to blatenly show his dislike for the questions he gets.

2) how are these questions choosen during the press conf. I sit there the entire time shaking my head about the level of dumbness in most of the questions. I think one time three different reporters asked the same question about studge, and Klopp just looked pissed.

{Ed002's Note - (1) I don't think the media have any particular opinion of Klopp at this time. Like a number of managers, he won't tolerate some of the more banal questions. (2) The reporters will have a list of questions they wish to ask. The club also won't take questions on a couple of specific subjects and the media are told that. press conferences vary manager to manager and some will stay and answer all questions put to them. Others will get up and leave if there is anything touchy. One EPL manager won't do post match interviews until 45 minutes after the game so he doesn't say anything he will regret latter. Klopp is fine with the press conferences as far as I know.}

You knew someone was going to ask, but who is that manager that delays speaking to the media by 45 minutes?

{Ed002's Note - It is unimportant.}

I reckon it's Pardew, he's got a short fuse.
