The problem with klopp is... he took the team the way it was, i always thought he should have waited for the winter transfer windows, so he could get into the team with players he wants

Could anybody please summarize what media/liverpool fans etc think about Klopp after his first few months?

What I hear in Germany is often:
- With PL having no pause during the winter he's had no training time to make his team understand the way he wants to play. Big changes can only be expected next season.
- PL is tactically far behind Bundesliga etc and most players aren't even fit enough to run more than 60 minutes. Klopp can't have success in these circumstances.

Most of it is defense by Dortmund fans who see the fault with Pool instead of Klopp but I guess it could be the other way around in England? Most things I saw were just: "trololololololol mignolet so bad" but that cannot be the whole story. Could be 95% tho.


Its partly true, he doesnt have the players he needs to play his style, that was always going to be the case.

He himself is adapting. He hasn't changed his training methods reason everyone is injured.
The 2nd comment must be German troll because he said to Pep "you will need 35 players" due to fact that premier league is so fast paced that you need squad numbers if you going to play high press styles.

The squad he has is not the squad he wants but he will fix that. Judge him next season is all you have to do, write this one off as him trying to put square pegs in round holes.

Players not being fit makes no sense to me. They have professional staff and have been playing for months now. Of course they're fit.

First: Thanks for all the answers guys!

The argument about fitness is being made by Dortmund fans alot because when Kagawa came back from United he was in the worst shape we ever saw him in. So yes they are on a standard Premier League fitness level but it seems to some that it is way lower than what we're used to in Germany. When Klopp joined Liverpool their average running distance per game was 6 miles lower than Dortmunds average of last season. That doesn't say too much about the quality of football played as we are demonstrating this season but it could mean that the roster is not able to push as hard as Klopp would want them to.

Kagawa didn't even play for Yanited how is that a fair assumption on the whole league when one player who was the best thing in Dortmund, went to sit on the bench at yanited then came back un fit?

6 miles lower average running, when Dortmund play way less games than an English team, add in the "winter break" so the team has more time off so are fresher. Another assumption that has flaws in it.

I didn't say all of this was true just showing you what lots of people over here think. That's why I was asking for your perspective. The most interesting part in my opinion is how Klopps playstyle is going to work over a whole season with summer preparation (although euro takes a lot of time away). In the past he was slightly stubborn about his tactical approach and I could see him both wreck the league or fail miserably. I tend to believe it's going to be the latter.

He will need 18 man squad if he intends to full on heavy press over a course of the season in England simple. To get that he will need to invest alot of money

Both Pogba and Evra have said that MU's training is holidays compare to what they're doing with Juventus. Take what you want about it.

I have been hearing a lot of "Liverpool just isn't good enough", and this is most definitely correct. Mignolet is consistently awful at everything except for direct shot-stopping and Liverpool's offense is weak and inconsistent. Klopp needs a summer to actually make some serious moves and train a little before we can properly judge his performance.
A sound mind in a sound body, is a short, but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two, has little more to wish for; and he that wants either of them, will be little the better for anything else.

No, Klopp doesn't only need a summer.
People keep thinking BVB was a thing out of nowhere, Klopp had years in preparation in Dortmund. Give the guy years, not months.

Yeah, as a Liverpool fan, I don't expect half a year to be enough. He's already exceeding my expectations, considering our roster. We have a bunch of good players but it lacks something to make it work, and some really need to be replaced while not spending tens of millions of dollars for crappy players, like we usually do.
