All I'm pointing out is there wasn't a huge change in their form upon his arrival. Nor was there a huge change in form when Mane, Salah, VVD or Alisson arrived. So Liverpool's success can't be attributed to either. Rodgers career at Liverpool made sense. He relied on Suarez, Sterling and Sturridge to score large amount of goals to cover up he couldn't defend. When Suarez left, Liverpool's form went downhill, losing Sterling had a similar effect. When Benitez sold Alonso Liverpool struggled. Chelseas form slumped when Drogba left, improved when Costa arrived, when he felt out with Conte, their form went downhill. When we sold Lukaku our form dropped. Liverpool's form drastically improved out of nowhere, despite having the same players and same manager as the previous season. VAR has helped them out as well.
