I think it also shows how they gave up under Rodgers or weren't motivated. Rodgers got the best put of other players. Lallana was injured and missed a large part of pre-season under Rodgers and Firmino was also injured and needed time to acclimatise to the Premier League. And also it seems like you are basing this off Rodgers' first 8 games of last season and Klopp's first 6 games of this season rather than a whole season for each. If you look at it over a longer time period for both managers there hasn't been a massive difference in our results between the two managers. That's not taking anything away from Klopp because as a new manager he needs time and he is without doubt an outstanding motivator.

Rodgers got the best out of Suarez and sturridge. Every one else seemed to go backwards.I'm sure those too would have been brilliant for any manager but you can't take it away from brendan that they were brilliant .
Klopp tho has taken them to a new level.
It's the whole team he has improved. Gone are the days of a one man team. Lead by fowler Owen Gerrard torres or suarez.
We have zero superstars. Just a well drilled team of players who seem to care Sturridge, Coutinho, Sterling, Henderson, Flanagan, Gomez, Skrtel, Suarez all played consistently very well under Rodgers.

I don't think you can have Gomez in there, he has only ever played 5 games for Liverpool before he got injured and hasn't played since, though he did look good in those game 5 games, but that's not consistency !!!!

Only in the season we came second. They were definitely not consistent in the following season, stop talking crap.

And I don't think you can say he was crap for us, that's unfair. He was a young player who was asked to play in an unfamiliar position after Suarez left despite his young years.

[quote=Red_Scouser][quote=Mr Bojangles] To be fair, Sterling was consistently crap Sterling is looking awesome under Guardiola now. And I don't think you can say he was crap for us, that's unfair. He was a young player who was asked to play in an unfamiliar position after Suarez left despite his young years. I was talking more in the realms of consistency, he was consistently poor rather than good in that season. He has looked really good under Guardiola, I think Sterling's problems are more in his head/attitude. I don't think Guardiola is doing anything that Klopp would not have done for Sterling, they are both very good managers, I think he would have really suited Klopp's system. Sterling was more interested in manufacturing a move and lining his pockets with his agent, as a footballer he was very good, with his ups and downs as a young player, and I was sorry to see him leave from a footballing point of view, as a person he symbolises how football has gone wrong to me.

He's a young player who was badly advised, it happens all the time to young English players. The media build them into the next superstar after one good game, this leads to new contracts on absurd amounts of money, all of this is bound to go to a young man's head. I wish he was still at Liverpool looking at the way he has started this season, like you say he would have thrived under Klopp!
