Will be interesting to see what everyone's expectations were for Liverpool start of the season.
Mine was one of the cups and 4th spot. Obviously our cup run ended in disaster.
Having no Europe made things a little bit lighter for us but let's face it, we would not have had a squad to compete game in and out in Europe and locally.
For that reason I am extremely happy with how we have improved in the EPL this season. We only managed 60 points last season and 6 points improvement at this stage might not seem much but is the difference between making the top 4 and not.
We really need to get things right in the summer window and pressure on Klopp to deliver silverware will be make or break for him next season.
Two finals, our first European final since 2007 and came close to another final.
Klopp has been here under two years so progress has been there and next season I am expecting further improvement under Klopp.
Interesting stats compared to the manager he took over from.
Rodgers was here for just over 3 years.
Total of 166 matches all competitions, 1.77 point per game, 1.89 goals per game, 1.33 goals conceded per game
. Won 85, drew 39 and lost 42.
Klopp total of 94 matches all competitions, 1.79 point per game, 1.88 goals per game, 1.18 goals conceded per game, won 47, drew 27 and lost 20.
Make of that what you will but under two years with Klopp in charge I reckon there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
If Klopp had done worse in his first full season (which is this season) compared to Rodgers in his first season then I would have been extremely worried.

I thought we'd challenge for the title but I'm still happy. That poor run aside we'd have been up there. Klopp will learn and so will the players so next year wewill
Hopefully be up there challenging. Champions league football next season will ease some if we can just get over the line now so no doubt there will be some exciting European nights under the lights again!

Another trophy less campaign and I am not actually very excited as some here are. All these comparisons are bull! Brendan had Suarez and even a blind man could guranteee a second place finish with him in the side. He failed miserably when we sold the star man and bought duds who couldn't hit a barn door.
Klopp is not a success either. He needs to win PL title.

I genuinely thought this could have been the year. But a very bad January cost us mainly due to missing keys players but others just didn't step up in their place. We probably just have tried to sign someone but if the right player isn't there then I'd rather no one than just anyone. Hopefully over the next few games we can cement top 4 and all look forward to next season.

I said 7th or lower which is still a big possibility.

I think I was backing top 6 but possibly just outside so they should exceed my expectations.
