The English failure of Jurgen Klopp
by salnovegor
The brightest coach of our time spent his last season at Borussia Dortmund not only ambiguously, but disgustingly – the silver medalists trailed around the relegation zone for a long time, but at the end of the Bundesliga they gathered and accumulated points to get into the second-class Europa League. Jurgen left the club and handed over his brainchild to Thomas Tuchel, who is doing his new job no worse than Klopp. They don't remember much about him in Dortmund anymore, after all, but the team is clearly playing better, more fun and with more enthusiasm. The German moved to England and took over the club from the birthplace of the Beatles, Liverpool, which was dismantled after Brendan Rodgers.
Summer purchases were loud and often made right under the noses of competitors. The team has been joined by James Milner, Divock Origi, Roberto Firmino, Nathaniel Kline and Christian Benteke, and now the team is largely kept afloat only thanks to some of them.
It was expected that Jurgen would play rock music on the banks of the Mersey River, establish the famous gegen-pressing (total pressure) associated with his name, and if he did not make the club a champion, then he would definitely win medals. As a result, Liverpool is trailing in 8th place, losing to the leading Leicester City by as many as 19 points, and up to 4th place, which gives the right to play in the Champions League playoffs, by 7 points. And this place is now occupied by Manchester City, which will not give anything away for free. And Liverpool is not the only one aiming for this place – there are also Manchester United, West Ham and Southampton.
Jurgen Klopp has made the team one of the most unstable teams in the Foggy Albion. His players scored fewer goals than the half-dead Chelsea, than the worst enemy Everton, and managed to concede more than Watford.
It's only recently that Roberto Firmino has caught on. Milner plows all over the field, and Henderson wears the captain's armband, which looks ridiculous on him after Gerrard. And the wretched goalkeeper Mignolet is still standing on the gate, ready to come up with a goal even where, by definition, it cannot be.
Klopp not only did not set clear tactics, but also did not figure out the personnel. The team has a very long bench, but there are no decent performers. If Kolo Toure appears in the center of defense, and there is no alternative to the best of the Belgians at the gate, it means that the team's personnel reserve is in a very difficult situation. And if Jurgen doesn't get this pop gang to learn the fatal riffs, then he himself will have to learn how to say "one ticket to Germany, please" in English.
