Since Jurgen Klopp took over as head coach in 2015, Liverpool has consistently emerged as one of the strongest teams in Europe. Together they achieved the sixth Champions League title in club history in 2019.

Following the momentum of success, Liverpool conquered the first English championship after 30 years last season. This season, despite back-to-back injuries, The Kop is still off to a promising start in the Premier League. A 4-0 home win over Wolves last Sunday night helped them take second place in the standings, equal to Tottenham’s point and just behind goal difference – defeat.
Liverpool’s attacking trio, Roberto Firmino, Mo Salah and Sadio Mane, remain in top form. While the £ 41 million rookie hails from the Wolves, Diogo Jota is also onboarding faster than expected. The last 16 appearances in all competitions, Jota has scored 9 goals.
Scholes compared to MU
The great English central midfielder who was with MU all his career noticed many similarities between the current Liverpool striker and Man United’s front row when he was still on the shirt. The legend of the Red Devils told Amazon Prime:

“When I played for Man Utd, the team always had 4 forwards with the same rating. If two people don’t play well for about an hour, there are always 2 others willing to sit on the bench to make a difference.
“That is what Liverpool is building at the moment. Of course, I understand that they play in a different style than MU before. Liverpool have always organized a 3-man attack and this season they have a quality backup solution called Diogo Jota.
“Even if Jota enters the field it means someone will have to sit on the bench, Liverpool’s strength is not diminished. The change also creates healthy competition for the team.”
“Every player understands the need to maintain concentration and the best form if he does not want to lose his place in the hands of another person. That is great for any club.
