Ive been critical of Klopp's mentality in finals in the past but he set the team up well last night, we was looking the much better team before Salah got injured. Some things are just out of managers control especially when he has only Lallana and Solanke to pick from on the bench to replace Mo.
That said, if you would of said at the start of the season we would finish 4th, fail to beat the Mancs and win no trophy, I think we would have been pissed and so for me im putting in the "slightly disappointing" category.
At least we are in the UCL again next year which saved the season from being disastrous and hopefully with a bit more luck and a bit more firepower acquired in the summer window, we can go one better :p
I think Jürgen is capable of winning trophies, but the longer the losing run in finals the harder it is to overcome and as fans it gets worrying. I think he desperately needs to pick something up (even a league cup would do) and obviously hit the top 4 (maybe put it up to Citeh??) again next season.
We have played some great football this season so its not been all bad but yeah like i said, I think it doesnt go down as a highly successful one for Jürgen. We have progressed in our play of course we have but we only have 1 trophy in 12 years which for a club of our stature is pathetic.
Just win us something next season Jürgen. Anything :p
