Jurgen Klopp has presented Liverpool with a situation that could be as pivotal as Steven Gerrard’s slip.
If they slip — like Gerrard did against Chelsea in 2014 to hand Manchester City the title — and don’t get the right manager to succeed Klopp, they could lose all of the traction, substance and opportunities that he has built.
But although this is a very important moment for Liverpool, Klopp’s announcement will not derail their season. Whether they can win the Quadruple is in the lap of the gods but I fancy them to win at least two trophies this season.
