GK Coach John Achterberg - Suspect No 1?

Do these coaches have end of year reviews? Hard to judge him from the outside I suppose!

Maybe the best GK coach in the world could not improve what we have had at our disposal these last few years.

Well in that case the coach should have been making it very very clear that we needed an upgrade, or perhaps he was ;-)

I think he did, it would be interesting to find a video or source, I'm almost sure

Well according to James Pearce he is very highly rated by Klopp

If true I wonder why, what has Achterburg done to earn such praise??

He has been highly rated by the last 5 managers including the current. Maybe his skills are very highly sought after or its hard to find available goalkeeper coaches.

Oh you mean the skill of never improving a goalkeeper, yeah I can imagine that is very hard to find ;-).
Maybe he is just an expert at kissing ass, I've met plenty of people like that who are crap at their jobs but amazing at sucking up to their bosses but I would have thought Jürgen can see through that.

i have to think this is the case. top rated arse licker, one of the boys, dutch accent so sounds like he knows what hes on about,  etc.
snake oil salesman more like.
he should be judged on his results, has he improved any goalkeepers 'consistently... no. cya lad.

He has a degree in hypnosis, look into my eyes not around my eyes but into my eyes Jürgen, i am the greatest ever GK coach in the world you got it repeat after me.

winging it since 2009

Oh he really does look like the ass kissing type doesn't he, I bet he's a c**t to everyone below him as well. Anyway maybe he's a lovely and honourable guy but what is clear is that he is a terrible GK coach and I would be amazed if he lasts long with Alisson.

I don't know about you lot but Klopp doesn't strike me as someone who needs his ass kissing or who suffers fools gladly

trouble is that some of these long term parasites are smooth, so slick you'd never notice their tongue up your hoop.
i have seen it in the workplace, sycophants who have this symbiotic relationship with anyone who can help them progress, but without doing anything worthwhile themselves...

T.P.M.

I agree but if true then just what in the name of F**k is it that Klopp sees in Achterburg? He is demonstrably a terrible coach as no one ever seems to improve under him.

Last i heard about him is that Klopp is a huge admirer.

Yes we know that, we are trying to figure out why, any thoughts?

Bring back Joe Corrigan.

He's like 70 years old

and your point is?

Bring back Joe Corrigan.

Speaking of former goalkeeping coaches was interesting to see that Xavi Valero has ended up at West Ham.

and your point is?

He too old 🤷‍♂️

I know, I was kidding but he'd probably still do a better job.
