He doesnāt have an agent.
He has a super agent.
Who is Costaās superagent
How is Klopp supposed to get the most out of Sturridge when heās injured so often?
Mendes.
Heās been available for more Liverpool games this season than Coutinho.
This is a bizarre line of argument @Nembo_Kid. Without wanting to involve myself too much as debating is pointless, the point made was that both managers were annoyed by players feigning injury when they themselves didnāt fully agree.
You could accept that without losing face.
Nobody doubts that Conte has got a good tune out of Costa, heās playing as well as he has since his first few games under Mourinho.
So Conte has got a good tune out of Costa.
And Klopp has got a poor tune out of Sturridge.
Thanks for clarifying.
The point I am making is that you were criticising Klopp for Sturridge āpretendingā to be injured while you wonāt criticise Conte for the same thing with Costa
Iām criticising Klopp for not getting the best out of Sturridge.
In the post I quoted a while ago you criticised him for Sturridge being āinjuredā like Costa is now
My initial post was this:
You used Sturridgeās injuries as an excuse for that and then I relayed Kloppās viewpoint that Sturridge wasnāt even injured.
Sturridge has been fit for 75% of Liverpoolās games this season, whatās your excuse now?
What was Klopp supposed to do if he thought Sturridge wasnāt injured? You canāt force him to play as you said earlier. Heās only been fit for 75% of the games (still not a great %) because he hasnāt played enough to get injured more often
75% is more than Coutinho has managed.
Heās been fit for the vast majority of games this season, Klopp has chosen to ignore him. Sturridge has proven that he is a top player in the EPL when fit and in form, heās been fit for the vast majority of the season - Klopp has failed to get the best out of him - thatās just fact.
Conte has got the best out of Costa and if the word on the street is true, itās money that has turned his head and he is looking to engineer a move. This is certainly a test of Conteās man management ability.
Coutinho played in 13 games in a row in the league before getting injured. Not similar at all. Klopp has failed to get the best out of him because he obviously thinks it wiser to not change his entire approach to the game for a lad who regularly loses large parts of the season through injury
We could have saved a lot of time if you just said this at the start
And Sturridge was involved in 12 straight matchday squads at one point this season.
Klopp just didnāt see fit to use him.
The point is Klopp has talent in his ranks too, contrary to opinion, he has just failed in maximising that talent.
I donāt think they have a talented enough squad to win the league whether Sturridge is fit and in form or not
They have as talented a squad as any of the other contenders, youāre splitting hairs over most of them. Klopp has just failed to utilise his squad well, freezing out Sakho, not getting the best out of Sturridge etc.
What Liverpool players would get in the Chelsea team? Clyne, one of the centre halves maybe and Coutinho when fit is all I could see, Firmino at a push
Kult of Klopp
A) Great results - What a job Klopp has done, playing wonderful attacking football
B) Bad results - oh he doesnāt have the squad, the opposition have more money.
When does Klopp have to endure criticism?
