No @Nembo_Kid thought they could though

Covering bases in case they finished ahead of Conte.

apart from Leicester?

look at the Liverpool thread, most of them did

Are Leicester up there?

They are the champions

Where are they this year? 5th from bottom ? The money and wages paid out by Chelsea, City and UTD this year are phenomenal - Thankfully Liverpool have a world class manager who is able to get the best from a very average side… it will be a miracle if he gets top 4 tho.

Indeed, great value for money is Kloppo

6th highest paid manager in the world leading the 5th highest assembled side in the league to 8th place.

Kult of Klopp.

At what stage of the season did Klopp take over?

October.

So a new manager takes over in October. Finishes eight and gets to two cup finalso in 8 months and you think that’s an underachievement?

Yes. He had 30 games to turn the league around last season. He didn’t.

The job he has done this year has been average.

Seemingly Klopp is on a contract that makes him the 6th highest paid manager in world football and all that is expected of him is mediocrity. In fact he will get lauded for him for doing the bare minimum. He must be laughing his hole off at the KOKs. They’re worse than the pro Wenger Arsenal lot.

Who’s the Top 5 paid managers in the world?

Pep, Wenger, Mourinho, Ancelotti and Zidane.

Chelsea 45m net spend - 90 times the cost of Liverpool’s squad… I mean, earlier @Nembo_Kid was willing to dismiss a difference of 8.5m per player when averaging out the subs used in last night’s game - Given that Klopp is only on half a million more the Conte, using his rationale, they are practically on the same money but Conte has spent to the value of 90 times more/greater than Klopp did. Unreal.

Chelsea don’t have a £45m net spend. That’s a lie. Get your facts right.

Liverpool have a £100m net spend.

Klopp’s doing a great job so
