They're squad is decent, especially the forwards but to say they've overtaken us is ridiculous.
I'd still have our squad over theirs everyday of the week.
What has happened with them is they have enough good players to mask the inadequacy of the coach and are riding the crest of a wave. It might last until the end of the season but could just as easily have the wheels come off in a week.
I feel like the difference between us and them, at this moment, is Bruno Fernandes and Hunger.
They're what we were in 2017 with more quality.
They're ready to concede as they know they'll outscore teams.
Ole is a poor manager but he's got the balance spot on here. He's made Fred and Mctom better players and he's making Pogba tick.
Their spine is strong.
Our spine is currently Firmino who can't even shoot on target let alone score, Thiago, who has no support, Fabinho who is a DM playing make shift and Ali.
So many players needed moving on and so many positions needed a back up but they didn't back Klopp. I could see it coming from far
It's black and white.
GK has no decent back up
Trent has no back up at all (name another team with no rb cover)
Virj had Matip back up who is made of glass
Gomez had no back up so Fabinho was make shift
Robbo has Tsmiskas who can't get a start for love nor money
Hendo has Milner
Gini has a glass Keita and Jones who's still learning his trade.
Thiago has a glass OX who has lost his way tbh
Mane has no back up
Firmino has Origi who is not good enough and Minamino who seems to be not good enough and Jota who is a very good player.
Mo has Shaq who is made of glass.
Our lack of ambition in the transfer market means we have a good starting 11 but no one to pressure them to stay good
