He's done an absolutely incredible job at Liverpool all things considered. Last season, they were 2 games away from a quadruple last season and ended up falling just short on the 2 major trophies which I think must have exhausted them mentally and physically. Sir Alex Ferguson was the master of refreshing a squad when they we're successful to make sure that the desire was still there, but Liverpool haven't been able to do that. They could only give the bumper contract to either Mane or Salah and it looks like they picked the wrong one. They've never found a settled partner for Van Dijk. He's always carried them to an extent but he's maybe not capable of that anymore. The midfield looks disjointed now. Henderson has passed his peak and is on the decline at that elite level which is showing up all of their other weaknesses. Thiago is incredible when fit but there's no depth behind and the lack of positional awareness in the midfield is exposing Trent's flaws even more.
Unfortunately for Liverpool, it's a huge rebuild that's needed and the owners don't have the appetite for it, let alone Klopp.
Next year we could see a total change of power in the Premier League. Man United will have been taken over and will have a fresh injection of cash from a wealthy billionaire. Spurs are being heavily linked to Qatari money. Newcastle will obviously spend massively, Man City are Man City and I'd expect a more settled Chelsea to be pushing for the title. Liverpool are up for sale but the rumoured interest has been about Qatari and Saudi money (which their fans are quite rightly against). If they don't get a takeover though, 7th could quite quickly become their ceiling. It also makes it so important for Arsenal to win the league this season. I think that would prompt Kroenke to walk away and allow someone else to pump the billions into them to keep them fighting for titles.
Ultimately, what I'm saying is that we've ended up with a Super League whether we wanted it or not.
