Iā€™m actually shitting.

2142

This is poor stuff in comparison the good old days of the TFK wind up. Barney wouldnā€™t be up with the Raven in his time.

2143

Or the Corncrake

2144

Just Henderson.

Conte deserves so much credit for inheriting a squad that finished 7th and winning a league with them the following season. Klopp took over title challengers and itā€™s taken four seasons and a couple of world record signings.

2146

The three dozen or so points Liverpool lead man Utd by might soften the blow

2147

Liverpool finished 6th the season before Klopp came inā€¦ Thatā€™s not title challenging.

2148

They were in freefall when he arrived

Three of the best players from that challenge - Suarez, Sterling and Gerrard - were all gone from the club.

The job Klopp has done is remarkable. I think it took Fergie six or seven seasons to win a league with United and he was rightly lauded for winning their first in quarter a century. Klopp has done it sooner (well, Champions elect) and will achieve something that the 7 previous managers couldnā€™t do.

2149

Conte signed

Batshuayi for 30m
Rudiger for 30m
Bakayoko for 40m
Marcos Alonso for 25m
David Luiz for 35m
Kante for 30m
Danny Drinkwater for 35m
Zappacosta for 29m
andā€¦ and Ross Barkley for 15m

He made clean shit of Chelsea

Mostly after his title win. Conte also wasnā€™t in charge of transfers.

2151

They bottled the title the year before. They were title challengers.

2152

Klopp > Fergie

Herr Klopp will equal Fergie in Europe this year. Fergie was shown up in Europe.

How did Chelsea go the year before they finished 7th?

2154

they didnā€™t finish 7th. They finished 10th

They went 1st - 10th - 1stā€¦ they were contenders

2155

Fergie was nearly fried. Liverpool fans have been lauding failure for years now.

2156

Sorry it was rainieri that won the league after finishing seventh.

2157

Wowā€¦ So they actually won the league??

2158

yupā€¦ mourinho won it. they then went to absolute shit. Conte came in and won it and then they went to shit again

2159

Carlo ancelotti, Conte, pep, Jose x 2, fergie x 1 and ranieri x 1 all won the title in either their first or second year in charge in the premier league. Klopp has taken how many years?

That changes everything.

Klopp>Conte>fergie
