All the top managers have the beating of Wenger, and considering he has been the longest serving manager in Europe, who has had a settled side for several seasons, with what he describes as a team capable of winning the PL, means he is not at their level.
So any decent manager from any decent league could take over and do a better job.
All Wenger had to do this season was shake things up a bit just to make it more interesting but he couldn’t even be bothered to do that.
Klopp is the opposite.
He might not be the best but he would be exciting to watch and would do his best in the transfer market, which Wenger has failed to do every season, for which he is now paying for.
A very very small part of me thought that the reaction to yesterday’s result was an overreaction, based on the fact that we’ve been to Liverpool before and got turned over handsomely. Even before the 5-1, we’ve lost 4-0 there in christmas 2001 with a better first XI. How did we respond? Thrashed leicester 6-1 at Highbury a few days later.
Will we beat Bournemouth the same way? You can bet your bottom dollar we won’t.
No, he doesn’t, or else he wouldn’t be clearly the superior manager. This is you just using facile rhetoric to try and defend an indefensible point (probably to save face).
Klopp topped ‘the big 6’ mini table last season and continues with another win so far this season. He’s only lost one of these since being in England, a highly impressive stat.
Wenger’s was at the bottom of that mini table last season and to my knowledge hasn’t been near the top of it in years. He’s even losing his status of swatting aside the rest of the league flat track bully style as we’ve developed new bogey sides in recent years in the form of Swansea, Southampton and perhaps West Brom.
If you properly analysed Klopp’s record in the league vs the top 6 compared to Wenger’s since he arrived, you’d clearly see he doesn’t share all the same defiances as Wenger.
