No one can say Liverpool haven’t improved under Jurgen Klopp.
However, Kopites may well have been expecting silverware at Anfield and the club has made zero progress on that front since he took charge in October 2015.
The Reds have come very close a few times, reaching the League Cup and Europa League finals in 2016 as well as the Champions League final in 2018.
They’ve been even better this season – pushing Manchester City all the way in the Premier League title race and are also in the last four of the Champions League again.
But it’s going to take a miracle for a trophy of any kind to come to Anfield this season as City are in the ascendancy in the title race with just two games left.

Meanwhile, Liverpool’s European hopes hang by a thread following their 3-0 defeat at Barcelona in the first leg of their semi-final tie.
Klopp refused to completely rule out a comeback from his players but there was a sense of resignation about his words as it looks like Liverpool will leave this season empty-handed once again.
It’s potentially embarrassing for the German who forecasted Liverpool would win ‘one title’ in four years when he was appointed manager.
He said to reporters at the time: “Last night we signed the contract and this morning I wake and I’m manager of Liverpool FC.
“Please give us time to do the work but when I sit here in four years I think we may have one title. If not maybe [I’ll win] the next one in Switzerland.”
The clubs around Switzerland will be licking their lips at the prospect of Klopp coming at least!
