United spend a lot of money last  few years and not on top.....

Money helps but you need good managers and good team chemistry.

Do you realise how much Liverpool have spent in the last few years?

still think klopp doing great job to be fair on less money spent then other clubs

The only reason the net transfer spend is lower is because the small northern club had to sell its best players, much like the other small London club who sold their best player and spanked the money everywhere. 

As for numbers of signings - sure Klopp is way ahead - but years without winning anything has forced him to buy young talent which is unproven cheaply - it's a gamble - until you actually win something - it's still work in progress... 

Klopp is a good manager - no doubt about it - but do you really think Liverpool have the ability to win? Mentally the team is useless - look what happened at Bournemouth 

i get you like trolling - but seriously come back when you win something 😂😂😂

Watching this weekend's last PL game, it's clear why Chelsea are so efficient this season. Everton & City played us, changing their formation to match ours, and thus payed us a huge compliment in the sense we dictated how they play. I thought prior to this season it would Guardiola who would change English football but it seems to be Conte who's really influencing the approach of other teams in the league. Klopp has introduced high pressing and energy while Conte's got the formation and fitness levels up. Those double training over the summer really have put Hazard and Costa back into shape!

I have my priorities straight.

I will find some time this weekend to show how much love and respect I have for this man... He won me over, proved me wrong, shut me up and I have no qualms in saying that based on form, he's the best manager in the world right now.

If players are assessed on form, managers could as well.

He's called King Conte

He has a big Monty 

Hail Hail

On a few rival forums, I kept reading Guardiola was the better manager in our bout, because they dominated the game per say. But truly, the team which changes their formation just so they can compete with you, kinda loses by default. When they literally lose, that's compounded. It IS part of being a great coach, knowing when to park the bus, knowing when not to take the game to a team. It takes confidence to be reserved. Guardiola showed no confidence by throwing the kitchen sink at us, it simply showed his desperation and lack of belief in his usual team when up against us. We're the team to beat, and I can't picture us not winning the league.

Every press conference makes me like him more and more (if that were even possible) He stays focused and motivated about the next game ahead, refuses to speculate on transfers, lineups, or issues. Speaks about the players in positive light and gives whatever small updates on injuries are needed.

We are so lucky.

Well congrats, the police will be knocking on your door soon. That's what you get for murder.

You have way more confidence than me brother. I still feel like we'll implode sometime come February/March, and this season will mirror the 2013/14 Season with City winning out in the end. 

I look at the lack of depth we have in several positions, more so WBs and in CM, and can't get it out of my head that an injury crisis to either department, and we're royally fucked. Just this bad feeling I have, because I look at the work that Conte has done the way these past 2 months have gone in particular, and it all feels too good to be true.

Two ways to simplify it:

1) we're currently over-achieving due to an excellent management team  --over-achieving because we DO lack quality and depth across the formation -AND- because we are only in ONE competition currently.

2) we're not ready to be the side that can play how it wants home/away -AND- with a load of European matches added

 

As for collapsing in the 2nd half of the season: it's possible, but I imagine we get some players in the January window. Tottenham, Arsenal, and ManCity still represent strong competition for the title IMO, but we'll see how well the Stokes, West Broms, Watfords and EVertons hold it together in the 2nd half; usually, they don't.

Yes an injury crisis would fuck us but that's the case with any club, our medical department have been brilliant for years we haven't had a serious crisis since 2010 what's the odds of that changing now?
