When such a popular leader leaves a club it’s going to go through a period of instability as things settle down and adjust. I envisage something similar could happen at Liverpool when Klopp goes.
This is one of the reasons why I think SM was given the season and has been given time to have his own squad, and it also gives the club time to address the failures and shortcomings from last season that hampered LW towards the end and SM throughout. Whilst this summers recruitment will be key keeping the likes of Jodi Jones, Macca and a returning Matty Palmer will be massive.
