Rodgers was a flopp and finished 2nd, my point is 2nd is nothing. People are pretty thick if they can't grasp that. There's a lot of people here who can't grasp simple concepts and come out with insults. Neanderthal is a term for half the people on this page.
Right, so your point about the "need" for trophies is fine. I get that. While I think context to every season needs to be given, I do understand that 2nd is just 1st loser, essentially. But, still much preferred to 7th or 8th as it was a few years back.
The context is that the points total we have now is starting to appear in "In x season, this would have won the league" lists and we still have five matches to run. Bar a drastic drop in performance, we should end the season on 90+ points. We're only a win away from bettering the efforts of Rodgers best year - with the consistency in year to year performance and overall blueprint with Klopp being much more apparent than Rodgers ideas for this team ever were.
There's some irony in you claiming some can't grasp simple concepts because you can't grasp the complexities of the modern game, either. Nor can you seem to grasp the complexities of the unique nature of league play in football - the fact that your performance can be at an all time great level, and still come second because the other team is literally one of the greatest league teams of all time. I think we're a good shout at this title, but if we do come second with anywhere north of 90 points, we have had the greatest season ever to not win the title. While there is no prizes for that, and it is something that we still need to try and improve on because we have to try and be better, it means that this team is absolutely going in the right direction and KLOPP IS A FUCKLOAD BETTER THAN RODGERS. He IS PROVEN. Which is where this has all stemmed from and I can't for the life of me understand why you could even suggest Klopp is "unproven" if he doesn't claim silverware this year. He's a year ahead of where I thought we would be (I didn't think this kind of season was in us until at least next year) and is still in the running for both the League and Champions League in April - a position we haven't been in since 2009 - and on this day in 2009 we had just lost 1-3 at home to Chelsea in Europe, so we're in a far better position than we were then.
Your original quote below states Klopp has to win the league to beat Rodgers. That is absolutely wrong. He already has beaten Rodgers.
Look further than the "Simple" that you THINK people don't grasp, and maybe you'll work out why.
Klopp won't be getting an extension yet. He's contracted until 2022. I'm not against an extension, but Rodger's came 2nd in the league, so Klopp has to win the league to beat Rodgers yet.
