I think we should look away from mane's departure from Liverpool as the key factor to Liverpool's present predicament as the club has failed in all totality to deliver since the beginning of this round of the premier league. But then Liverpool needs to wake up and man up to face this round since they have not made any positive development since the beginning of the season and if changes need to be made in the club then that should be done I can't imagine Liverpool being under five on the league table.
With transfer window closed, Klopp has to make his way with the players he has. I think current squad has everything it needs to hold things for now but they need to take things seriously at defence. Another main thing is that Salah is unable to find much goals which is a worrying sign. Furthermore, Nunez also haven't been able to make a good impression given his price tag. Its Luis Diaz who seems to be doing the hard work as of now in their team.
Next they have Wolves ahead in PL and hopefully they will try to change things here.
I am quite sure that some people are going to bring up this problem of Liverpool and say that the coach is the main problem. Even though the same coach, with the same team, has performed quite well in the last season. The only difference is that Sadio Mané is not on the team anymore.
I know that he was a very impactful player for Liverpool. But one person cannot disbalance the team so much right?
I really don’t understand what is the actual problem. Because this team is certainly good. I think probably as Darwin Núñez is going to be the main striker in the team, Klopp is trying to make the team built around him. And probably that is the mistake. I am not a professional coach or anything, I am just stating my thoughts.
Even though the current Liverpool squad is not much different from the previous season, even Liverpool did not bring in many new players,
but why Liverpool's performance has declined so much this season. I also think maybe one of the reasons is because Liverpool lost Sadio Mane,
even though one player shouldn't have that much impact, but the fact is that since losing Mane Liverpool's performance has seen a decline.
This means that it was a big mistake for Liverpool to let Mane go to Bayern.
But I believe Klopp can improve the team's performance, the most important thing is that Liverpool management must be patient with this bad situation.
Don't take action too quickly like Chelsea did by sacking Tuchel. For Darwin Nunez has not performed satisfactorily so far, but we must give Nunez
a chance to adapt. We'll see how Liverpool develop in the next few games, I hope there's a positive change. Liverpool have a quality squad and
a great coach, I'm sure Liverpool can bounce back.
