Liverpool look quality again unfortunately

Lack of Europe makes them super dangerous.
I still hold out hope that this super intense style of theirs will ruin then come Feb after the heavy Christmas and January schedule

Yeah I've a bad feeling about them now. Not helped by their fans being so chipper.

Nice strike from Pogba. Defender not quite there in time, and turns his back.

Klopp is the best manager in the world. He's on a different level than Poch (as is Conte). Most people here probably agreed with that before he arrived at Liverpool, but for some reason, their lack of results after he got there blinded people to the fact that he was building them slowly into his image. The other difference they're ahead of us now is they've bought so much better than us in the summer windows the last two years.

Liverpool even made a profit last summer. As long as Klopp is there, they'll be title contenders.

Klopp is quite some way the better coach.
But they have a shit defence. Clearly he is better at coaching the attack side of the game so far this season. The fact our players have probably played double the matches theirs have as well when you take into consideration their players are always "injured" for international duty doesn't help our cause. I agree if we could attack like them or they could defend like us you would have a title winning team

It's hardly shit given that there defensive record comparable to the likes of City's and Arsenal's. Klopps one of the top managers in the game, he has been for a number of years now and he his demonstrating that by turning a side that is average on paper into one that looks like it could challenge for the title.

Only Burnley and now Watford have conceded more than them in the top half of the league mate

Difference is they are constantly looking to attack - we are constantly looking to maintain possession.

They're going well as it stands, but it's only the beginning of November.

Calling him the best manager in the world is premature at this stage, and frankly a little bit embarrassing.
