It’s not the most expensive squad, but Klopp has succeeded in taking a lot of mid-priced players and making them look like they are worth three times what was paid.
Few managers can do that – particularly with pretty much every player, as usually you find that a manager gets the best out of three or four (often at one end of the pitch or the other, but rarely both), while others fade away. Under Klopp, you can say that Firmino, Lallana (edit: I knew I’d forget an obvious one!), Coutinho, Henderson (now fit), Can, Clyne, Lovren, Milner, Origi and Sakho have improved, either last season and/or this, with possibly only Daniel Sturridge going backwards (but on the back of almost 18 months out, and still remains such a great player to watch).
