Review of "BOOM!" on Amazon nails it:
7 June 2018
Format: Kindle Edition
Football fans are always going to have biases towards the club they support but this book clearly takes it to a level i've never seen before. I read the Amazon book description and nearly had a breakdown. 'As money increasingly dominates the Premier League landscape, Jürgen Klopp proved once again that he can take undervalued resources and create a thrilling team' £75 million on Virgil van dijk, a worldwide record for a defender. Not to mention the £40 million for Salah, £35 million for chamberlian, Keita will join next season for £60 million and Fabinho for £45 million. Also lets not forget Mane cost £40 million and Wijnaldum £25 million. So this suggestion that he does not have the resources that other managers do is absolutely laughable and false. 'Liverpool were 40-1 outsiders at the outset, with a team of misfits, rejects, journeymen and discards' I can gurantee the same person that wrote this predicted Liverpool will win the league this season because after all 'this is there year', it always is. I remember clearly at the start of the season a lot of there ex players on TV predicting what a great season they will have, every football show you turn on they're giving it the big one. This also just gives a false impression that Jurgen Klopp is some sort of mastermind. If you look at it objectively, he finished with less points then he did last season which means they have gone backwards, he also still hasn't won a trophy, even though he has been there for 2 years and 8 months. What Pochetiono has done at Spurs has surpassed what little Klopp has done. He has made them a top 4 team on a minimul budget, yet he gets ripped apart for not winning a trophy. Klopp on the other hand is treated as some sort of Savior. Unfortunatly, the media are so far up Liverpool and Klopps backside that even if they got relegated there wont be any criticism of them. They will probably blame it on the evil Ramos. Talking about Ramos, Its amazing how Liverpool fans reacted towards him after the final. You wouldn't think that the thugs Souness, carragher etc once played for them.
