Rodgers brought a bunch of average players who are not good enough now Klopp has been left to clear up his mess

Aha, but the whole Klopp, LVG need time to transition excuse is wasted when you see where Leicester were this time last season with Nigel Pearson, bottom in relegation zone and at one point 7 points adrift of Burnley but went on a recent run from February. Step forward Ranieri, step forward table toppers, title contenders, a team next season more likely to play against Angers, Roma, Schalke, Barcelona (but most likely in failed qualifier against Midtjlland
) in Champions League. Liverpool have more resources than Leicester (despite wealthy Thai owners) and definitely more resources than Watford and yet Vardy and Ighalo are outscoring Rodgers' £32m man Benteke.*
Benteke is getting 4x what Vardy's earns. Will Liverpool end up finishing higher this season than with mid table Rodgers? Don't get me wrong, LFC are historically a great club, Klopp a decent passionate manager, but he is very much up to his neck in it, it's just funny seeing the realisation of the huge mess he's got himself into, and he blatantly now realises Plan A,B and C won't work.
*If Klopp is smart he will sell Benteke to a "rich suger daddy more money than sense" Chinese team and probably recoup all £32m
