    Your opinion on the issue is completely void I'm afraid.

    Klopp had a good track record, as does LVG. Yet you slated Klopp and called all other Liverpool fans morons for wanting Rodgers to be sacked. Surely you're not going to admit you may have been wrong about Klopp or Rodgers?

    This is where fickle fans (the type that slate a manager one minute but sing his praises the next) start making sweeping judgements about the future based on just 8 games.

    Predictions eh? Go figure

    The Turd does not rate anyone who does not play or manage the RS. Deluded to the end. Rodgers>>>kloppyflop

    I don't agree.

    The players are full of confidence which you categorically did not see at the end of Rodgers tenure.

    Its not perfect, and as I have said elsewhere, it is early days - but with someone else's squad he's getting players who were not performing well to perform.

    That is a sign of a quality coach.

    Sakho, Lovren, Moreno, Lucas, Lallana, Can, Firminho in particular are all performing noticeably better than under Rodgers and we still have Henderson to come back.

    Then you have wins away at City and Chelsea - thrashing in fact, which you never, ever got under Rodgers.

    He is putting confidence into the squad and they look a far better team for it.

    Mate I could pull up threads where LFC fans were saying exact same thing about Rodgers after his first half dozen games, or indeed Dalglish. And look what happened there.

    I do think Klopp is clearly a better manager than Rodgers (as Rodgers was a better manager than Hodgson) but none of this equates to improvement for the same reasons we saw with your previous manager.

    He's a motivator first and foremost, that's his major strength

    The fact that players are enjoying it is what I see, that's the tangible difference.

    First 6 league games:
    Klopp 11 points
    Van Gaal 8 points with £110m net spend

    So, 3 points difference between one with a settled squad and one trying to introduce 5 new players to the team. Not much really is it :emoticon-0100-smile

    The media are now discussing the possibility of a title challenge this season for Klopp

    In comparison they are also discussing the possibility of a sacking this season for Van Gaal

    The media have been discussing the possibility of a title challenge for Liverpool for the last 25 years. One day they will get something right :emoticon-0100-smile

    Indeed they are but I'm not focussing on the media who will always publish populist trash that will sell papers, I'm referencing your opinions and posts. Do you stand by them?
