They'll be fine, he left a really strong team for the next manager coming in assuming the successor is somewhat competent. Should be the same as in Dortmund, his influence is club-wide and I think Pool will continue with the same approach they did under Klopp. I expect some of the players to...

I don't get how you are including games that City haven't even played, why do they matter? 13/14: Win vs (shitty) Arsenal, Win vs (shitty) Utd, Loss vs Madrid 14/15: Win vs Donezk, Win vs Porto, Loss vs Barca 15/16: Win vs Juve, Win vs Benfica, Loss vs Atletico 16/17: Loss vs Monaco 17/18: Win...

This pretty much, did nothing wrong both legs.

OK, so you do claim that City overpaid for all their players and Pep, who is possibly the manager that has the biggest possibilities in world football and built this squad by his own merit, makes up all that by elevating them to play on this level, and Klopp on the other hand got lucky with all...

Wait, so you actually claim City overpaid for their players and somehow Pep elevate them to play on this current level, and for Liverpool they were all bargains that somehow makes up for the 300m difference in squad cost? I'm honestly interested in your opinion, because if we look at this...

Yes, I would say so. Look at the thread predicting the top 6 of this season, most had them placing 3rd-5th place, just because they are playing really well doesn't mean their players are better individuals. Especially knowing Klopp's teams and how worse his players perform when they switch...

Pep must be the only coach in the world who builds a squad for 1b all by himself and people would still say somehow has a weaker squad than his competitors :lol:.

Maybe I'm a bit dense but I'm not sure if I get your point. I don't think anyone's saying this Liverpool doesn't have expensive players, what I am trying to say is that compared to the other big boys, it is nothing extraordinary: Manchester City: £808.6m Manchester United: £685.0m Chelsea...

You're going by net spend then? They spent 167m net since Klopp arrived, that's less than half of the league. Coutinho whose fee was used for Allison/VVD turned out to be a flop for Barca but Hazard was arguably even a bigger one for a similar fee no? How can we evaluate players "in hindsight"...

Alisson ans especially VVD fees are heavily inflated by the Coutinho transfer (and the weird VVD bribing saga), don't think that any club were willing to pay those prices they paid at the time, and I don't think any person would consider VVD and Fabinho anywhere near the best players in their...

This pretty much I think. Liverpool requires the vast majority of their high money transfers to be big hits for several seasons to compete (only Keita/Ox weren't and I wouldn't necessarily call them flops either), and also are dependent on surprise hits like Robertson/Matip and academy players...

Honestly man, you've got to be trolling right? How can one be this deluded?

Damn so it's true that Pep really just said "Okay boys let's just splash some serious world record breaking fees for obviously crap players just to prove them how I can actually turn shite to gold" :lol:. Thank God for Pep man, those 60m+ players would've been playing for Scunthorpe United...

Pep is without a doubt world-class, but this has to be a joke, right? Pep bought all those players, or do you think he somehow deliberately overpaid for overrated players just to prove to the world he can turn them into good ones? Stones was the most expensive CB before VVD, Laporte and Dias...

This is wrong btw, Heynckes got 91 points during the treble season (80 GD). Pep's highest was 90 points next season (71 GD).
