Is this the best thing Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp have

Klopp gives Philippe Coutinho a hug during the win over Manchester City…

The 21-year-old played in his favoured midfield position once again against City and received a rating of 7.39 from Whoscored.

When Klopp first came in, many agreed that he was the man for long-term, but there were some fears how he would go coming in immediately with limited resources due to the unforgiving injuries Liverpool have continuously picked up throughout the season. For him, it is all about the team.

“I feel guilty and after that I had to keep my head up and I was too upset”. That they did in the best way anyone could.

Writing for Yahoo Sports, Jenas said: “Jurgen Klopp doesn’t seem to rely on anyone, as if it’s not part of his plan to have a superstar in his team“.

It has been his PR skills – as well as his tactical nous – that have prompted Reds fans to take him to their hearts so quickly. And that’s an fantastic trait to have. All the supporters knew he had talent and it is starting to be put on display for the Liverpool supporters worldwide.

I haven’t seen a manager with that level of confidence since Sir Alex Ferguson. And whoever came in would have to play Ferguson’s way.

And Watzke has urged his former manager to continue the fight of the “working man’s club” against the rich clubs. One picture-Adam Lallana, the manifestation of the Rodgers ornamental style, in embrace with his manager after putting in a shift you associate with James Milner-painted 1,000 words about Klopp as an agent of change. That is what you saw all day. Mentally I was [ready to play against Liverpool]. City’s returning Argentine striker Sergio Aguero produced a brilliant curling effort, a minute before halftime, to threaten just briefly the possibility of a comeback win that would have taken them back to the top of the table. “There are no arguments about his capability of scoring goals, creating chances and tormenting opposing defences”, Lawrenson told the Liverpool Echo. Like what Mourinho did with Frank Lampard at Chelsea, for example. “You don’t have time to train, you don’t have time to work on the basics as you do [normally]”. Klopp has got that ability. You can never have a guarantee that a player is going to appear in every match.

What Liverpool must ensure now is that they don’t follow up the City victory by failing to beat Swansea at home, as was the case after winning at Chelsea when Crystal Palace walked away with three points a week later.

And it has also had a few impatient fans checking the latest on Pep Guardiola’s contract situation at Bayern Munich. “Hopefully that can set a standard for us for the rest of the season”, said the skipper, reflecting on Saturday’s performance in Manchester.
