Liverpool are really good. Jurgen Klopp is incredibly special. But it& #39;s a bit demoralising seeing other teams buy their way out of a funk in a year when it took us 4 years of building for success to arrive.
Obviously there& #39;s no guarantee it& #39;ll pay off for Chelsea but buying really good players for huge fees gives you a distinct advantage.
If the roles were reversed we couldn& #39;t do this. Not without selling prized assets. We& #39;re the Champions and we can& #39;t do it now.
I& #39;m not suggesting Klopp is doing all this in spite of the ownership. But he& #39;s definitely punching above his weight. Do you think some of these lads would be Liverpool players if Klopp wasn& #39;t in charge? That& #39;s the challenge.
I don& #39;t think they would be. So how does Liverpool compete with Chelsea and City beyond Jurgen Klopp? What& #39;s being put in place to allow us to do this?
I& #39;m enjoying everything we are right now. The best times we& #39;ve had in decades. Long may it continue. But there& #39;s a bigger picture and I& #39;m curious as to how the club plan to compete in the long term.
