This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Yes, Mourinho's time seems past. by CuzTeahan

The wheels seem to have fallen off with Tottenham in his first year.

Zidane is interesting and I wonder if/when we seem him coach other than Real Madrid, but three consecutive Champions League trophies puts him in the coaching pantheon.

Klopp's system seems highly specialized with the right players for a good multi-year run, but I think they have been fortunate to stay healthy with key players this year and need to build depth. Next year the Premier League is going to be more competitive than it has been in a long time, with Chelsea and Man United looking ready to present significant challenges to Liverpool and Man City heading into the transfer window (and with Chelsea already having added Werner and Ziyech).

I'm not saying Klopp isn't very, very good, but I don't yet see him as an all time great. A few more trophies in the next couple of years combined with his work at Dortmund would certainly improve that argument.
