I don't think the asking of the re-think question is as "dumb" as JK thinks. Cognitive flexibility is deceptively complex. Once a person takes a particular stance he then forms an opinion, in JK's case a decision to leave at the end of the season. What then happens is that decision becomes attached to your whole sense of who you are, and any challenge to it you equate with a challenge to your very self.
.......Which makes it very difficult, (almost impossible) for us to change our minds. (especially if your original opinion has been plastered around the world )
An ability to change your mind is an attribute...not a weakness.
You have a very complex way of answering a simple equation, Jürgen Klopp is leaving at the end of the season, that journalist is Dumb for thinking/believing that because Micheal Edwards is returning, Jürgen would change his mind,
He very clearly wasn’t and isn’t changing his mind so therefore it’s a dumb question to ask, it matters not a jot what the Journo’s mind was thinking, he obviously hasn’t a clue what goes on behind the scenes and in particular in Jürgen's private life, he and perhaps more importantly Ulla has come to the conclusion that enough is enough, and that the stresses and strain that come with the job have taken their toll on Jürgen,
…in short he has done his bit and someone else will follow….and no matter who the DoF is or head of operations or JW Henry himself will persuade him otherwise, the journo may only have been doing his job but I bet even he was reluctant to ask the question, and perhaps with hindsight wish he hadn’t !!
You’re not the only one that can be complex yanno’s !! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
