coutinho is so good, better than kdb for me, if less consistent. although some people on here don't rate him

problem with Kev is that he isn't a big stage player. He's going to shine like a supernova in small-medium importance games, but will completely hide or just not be effective when there's more at stake or against big teams.

I've always said Coutinho is one of the most inconsistent players around, but there's no doubt he's talented. As he's Brazilian in one hand I want him to overcome his inconsistency issues - which are huge - but as a Chelsea fan I just hope he never changes. can't deny the kid has some amazing goals on him though.

But on both players' account, they're very young and they can overcome both things at any moment. Confidence and consistency are something that can be reached all of sudden, so no verdict about them can be final at this point (regarding their limitation that is).

We should've gotten Klopp when we had the chance.

the same Klopp who lost their last game, at home, against Palace, drew against Southampton also at home?

I mean, I believe Klopp is a huuuuuuuuuuuuge improvement on Rodgers (who isn't?), but he came here from a season as terrible as our current, he didn't have that immediate impact most teams have with new managers (that doesn't usually last much anyway), but most of all, he never wanted to come here, he's always wanted to go there - regardless of our interest or not on him. But I find it particularly interesting he's praised for his good things whereas the bad ones are ignored. He's got two draws, one loss and two wins for the league since he arrived. Average at best, but also unfair to label him anything.

I'm a huge fan of Jurgen, but he never wanted to come here and he hasn't fixed anything in Liverpool yet (not enough time tbh, but he didn't even get that immediate impact some managers have), so I don't get this kind of post, especially the chance part. We never had a chance.

Look at the quality of players he has and he is still beating the likes of City. He is overachieving atm.
