It's a shame. It's going to peter out for Klopp.

Konate was poor tonight. Quansah deserves to start next game

Salah has been terrible last few games.

Would you as a Liverpool fan have taken a trophy win,a top 4 finish and a  return to Champions League football and title challenge at the start of the season?

I suppose it would have been considered a decent season if Klopp hadn't announced he was leaving which only seems to have made everyone think only a quad or treble at the very least would be considered a success in his final season, certainly some other clubs would have been happy with what Liverpool will end the season with.

As a neutral I'll be sorry to see Klopp leave the league.
This is one of my 3 usernames.

From where Liverpool were last May, of course I would have taken top 4, a trophy and a title challenge.

But you take it as it comes. A quad or treble was never realistically on, but Liverpool were in a really strong position a few weeks ago in the league, which is what fans REALLY care about. Now the last month of the season, once top 4 is sealed,  will simply be a case of fulfilling fixtures, and Klopp's farewell will be a lot hollower then it might have been had they at least taken it to the final weekend.

Definitely going out with a whimper. I think everyone hoped they'd keep the pressure on til the end but seem to have given up

I'm sure that he will slot in nicely.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

So he's smart at any rate.

Performances over the last month or so have resembled a lot of last season

Liverpool need a really strong character like Big Ange TBH.

It's a pressure position with roaring expectation and a few results going awry early doors could impact most managers, bit Ange seems to take most things in his stride, similar to Klopp.
