Liverpool had a lot of good managers, can argue their tactics, tempers, wins, loses, it would be a long debate. But one thing is certain, they didn't have someone who checks all the boxes - Jurgen Klopp.
You want a nice playing style - check. Charisma on and off the court - check. Someone who knows football and lives football - check. Someone who always tells what he thinks no matter how hard the truth is - check. And most of all someone who is loved by every single Liverpool supporter - checked!
He hates wearing expensive suits, doesn't act bossy or shouts. Always finding the right answers, and always finds the way to surprise you in a good way. He proved that even recently when he came in with the fans, casually dressed and sang with them the big song "Allez, Allez". Every single supporter on social media called him the king. And rightly so.
That is only people wise, but results and football wise he turned the club for 360 degrees. There were times lately when there was trouble convincing a player to join the club, and now, it's practically a race to come and work with Klopp. Keita, Alisson, Fabinho, Van Dijk, just a small number of players who choose the "Anfield" cause of the German. Now, his squad has dept, has everything he needed to bring it to the next level - the trophies.
Whether it will be next season or the one after that, whether it will be the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup or Liga Cup it will happen for sure. And all fans have to do is sit back, and enjoy. Especially if, like he said today, someone else (Fekir) comes and gets in that no.10 role that is waited after Coutinho departure.
One thing is certain with Liverpool and Klopp - they will be the most entertaining team to watch next season. Especially if Salah, Mane and Firmino keep on what they did last year. And now, they have much better players to back them up.
