Klopp is still clearing out the dirt Rodgers left behind and having to do it with one hand behind his back ā€¦ Rodgers spent 300m with a net spend of 100m ā€¦ Klopp is -50m net spend from having to balance the books and is on the verge of taking Liverpool to a CL final. Some job.

Liverpool finished 8th when Dalglish was sacked. Rodgers took over and was sacked with Liverpool in 10th. In the end he was proven to be out of his depth. Useless in Europe, unable to attract the top players and unable to replace Suarez. Most of his signing were abysmal. Seemingly he agreed to the Firminho signing only if they allowed him to bring in Benteke.

Correct ā€¦ He didnt want Firmino at all.

how are the likes of lazar markovic, Fabio borini, adam Bogdan and divock origi getting on now?

Markovic and Origi are still on the books

yeah but loaned out and doing shite IIRC

edit

In January 2018, Marković again moved out on loan joining Belgian First Division A side R.S.C. Anderlecht for the second half of the 2017ā€“18 season.[41][42] It was admitted that upon Markovićā€™s arrival his fitness and condition was so poor that he would miss up to six weeks of game time in order to get up to standard.

Yup.

ok, are there any proper LFC fans here, Art i guess,
lads that never go to games basing opinions on the 5 mins they see on MOTD or on their FIFA ratings

FSG were financially stung with Comoli and the stats. Players like Downing and Adam were disasters, Suarez was a success but the Comoli project was a failure. I would imagine Markovich was a transfer committee signing. Rodgers tended to go for Premier League proven players, itā€™s just a shame most of them were proven to finish in mid table mediocrity. The transfer committee tended to look towards Europe for unproven players with potential. Markovich was a dud but Coutinho, Firminho and now Salah have turned in to world class players at Liverpool.

Rodgers was/is only a bullshitter. Heā€™ll never get a big club again.

aye, Swansea was about his level

Klopp is working miracles. There isnā€™t a club in Europe that wouldnā€™t take him if offered the chance.
