Milner, Lallana, Lovern, Benteke, Mig are so f**king butt-average.....it is unbeliveable.
I don't think Jurgen will have a better opportunity of winning the league in this country though, how often over the past 10/15 years have you seen the likes of Chelsea, United and City all looking so unconvincing all at the same time?
It wasn't as though we had to perform miracles to put ourselves in contention either, we only had to beat two average sides!
It wouldn't surprise me to see Guardiola at one of those clubs next year and Guardiola + big money will be a tough nut to crack, our players need to start finding ways to win.
We aren't going to win the league this year, we simply don't have the players to give us the consistency to win week-in, week-out.
Top 4 would be a huge achievement for us, but that's going to be tough without significant investment in the January window. Klopp needs to start shipping out the likes of Allen, Lallana, Lovern and Mig and bring in players with leadership and a winning mentality. Instead we've got mid-table dross that - for some reason - BR thought would step up to top 4 material. It hasn't happened and we'll be tens of millions out of pocket before this is all fixed.
