I am with Luke in giving Klopp plenty of time. Some championships are just viewed differently than others. When the New York Yankees won in 08 I remember the masses were just like "that title was truly bought". When the Kansas City Royals won the world series on the coat tails of a ton of young kids who had been in their farm system for over half a decade I remember feeling like it was truly earned on all fronts. I feel it started with the management, and then trickled all the way down to scouts, coaches, players, etc. I know most on here aren't baseball fans, but the Royals title was similar to Leicester winning the PL a few years back. Doesn't that title just feel more special than some of the ones Man U have bought over the years? I get it, in the end its about the titles, and who cares how you get them. But if we don't show patience with Jürgen we are back to square one again, but this time with a manger that isn't as sought after by players all around the world. Now with that said Jürgen has to do his part and evolve. We need to hire a defensive minded specialist who can come in here and work with Klopp on coaching the players on the squad and get more out of them. We also need to commitment from the management to continue to help us get in players we need for even more growth. I think they showed progress with how they handled the Keita signing. They tried plan A, and when it didn't work they went with a plan B and got him signed for next year. It shows that they are looking after the clubs best interest and making the most with what they are given. With some of the youngsters we have in the club the future looks bright, but like the Royals it may be a process. Do we need better CBs? Yes. Do we need to change the way we defend? Yes. But I also think we need Klopp and I am content with giving him time and seeing if we cant build something special here.
