Brendan Rodgers squad has already been proven to be unable to beat relegation fodder.
That is the problem with this club. If you think anyone could win consistently with these players I have a bridge I'd like to sell you.
While I did state before how I have my doubts about Klopps ability you still have to give the guy time to adjust. I don't he's as good as he was hyped to be but that's because of his tactics not the recent results. X's and O's wise he's just not that shrewd.

I'm saying some of these players you can't make any good.
I think he's just very one dimensional in his tactics. Which can work against him as we've seen. I think like LITN said some of the players Liverpool have just aren't good enough, especially defensively, and there's only so much a manager can do. They have good attacking talent but you can't just rely on attacking to win you a championship, and whether that's on Klopp or the board(probably both) is another issue. It'll be interesting how the next 6 months or so play out for them.
Quite frankly I am disgusted with the club, Klopp and FSG here. It's embarrassing how the season has gone since January and most of it is self inflicted.
Does Klopp get any say on transfers or do they still have the board do transfers like with Rodgers(I believe that's how it was at least)? Because there's no way you guys should have gone through January without getting at least 1 player. I mean I appreciate it though, it's helping United out at the minute
Klopp has big say on transfers. Final say according to some sources. He would rather find a bargain than a player to improve the team. He had the chance to sign Draxler in January but wouldn't match PSG's wages to seal the deal and then alluded to it being the fault of the Draxler team for being greedy for not taking a pay cut to play for Liverpool compared to what PSG was offering.
Then Klopp should have turned them over more quickly like he did at Dortmund. Klopp hmdaid he could win with this squad and he can't beat the relegation teams. Why should Klopp be infallible here?
Klopp's first summer at Dortmund featured 30 transfers. He is not afraid to turn the squad over. He just wants to do it on his terms. That being said the rules are different at Liverpool. It's harder to find the bargains that he prides himself on getting.
I find it hard to believe that any Liverpool fan can actually defend this decision considering what happened. They shouldn't have let Sakho leave without bringing in a player like van Dijk. There's no question that Liverpool have the money for that as well. They simply refuse to spend it.
This is much worse than the title collapse. That was just two bad performances after a ton of heroic ones.
This on the other hand is two months of garbage that destroyed our chances in three competitions. Everyone could see it coming too, the warning signs were there. They did absolutely nothing about it, it's infuriating. It's only Klopp's first full season, so he needs to wise up. The squad doesn't have anywhere near enough quality players. We're at a point when if anyone gets hurt we get hammered. We'd have still lost if Sakho was at the club, but the point is that Lucas should NEVER play CB for Liverpool and should NEVER play for Liverpool again.
Again, Klopp didn't make the transfers, apart from Subotic, who followed him from Mainz.
That's fine, but that isn't the point that I'm making.
I'm saying that if Klopp didn't think the squad was good enough he wouldn't stand in the way of turning it over in a single window.
Kloop was carried by Lewa tbh
Not sure you can really fault Klopp. Liverpool's squad isn't better than Chelsea's, City's, Arsenal's, United's, or Tottenham's. Leaves them in the position that they are in the standings. They are where they should be.
