So this is not a piece where I say that Liverpool’s players are all “shit” and “rubbish”. There is the core of a good young squad, but it’s not well balanced, there are injuries, there’s not enough pace, and it has been created in accordance with various visions: several different managers going back a few years, a Director of Football, and a transfer committee. All of these men assembled what Klopp inherited, and often with different ideas of what was wanted; and at times, with the manager and the committee having competing or conflicting visions. All of these people were also behind the successes in the current squad, too, but the hit-rate, and the consistency, hasn’t been good enough.
Right now Klopp needs is learning about the players, and the league, and needs to have the freedom to try things out. He needs time to build a team in his image, that does the things he wants, rather than trying to make what he has work for him (which is obviously part of the brief, but you can’t expect everyone in a squad to be suitable).

Or you can read Paul and Peter analysis it goes like this.
Win- The players are playing for the manager
Lose- The players arent playing for the manager
Conclusion no difference than Rodgers
