Didi Hamaan gives his views
Liverpool legend Didi Hamaan thinks that Liverpool need ‘to be careful’ with Jurgen Klopp.
The Reds have hit a serious dip in form this calendar year after ending 2016 flying.
At Christmas, they were real title contenders, but in the space of just over a month Chelsea have pulled away from them and Liverpool are now at risk of finishing outside of the top 4.
Liverpool gave Klopp a new 6-year deal in the summer to the delight of many fans, but Hamaan doesn’t think it was the brightest of decisions,
“I like Klopp, but you know they lost two finals, so I’d be careful. I wouldn’t have given him a six-year contract. I think that’s absolute madness. He’s got six years left now. They lost to Southampton (in the League Cup semi-final) so that’s another year gone (without a trophy). They may not finish top four.”
“When I watched them the other day against Chelsea, to me it looked like a team with purpose, a bunch of men – against boys who like to play. Chelsea were the grown-up team. This is where Liverpool need to improve. They need some game intelligence, some nous, and if they don’t develop that they need to bring someone in.”
