After a hot start to the campaign, Liverpool found themselves with a mountain to climb if they want to secure qualification for next season’s Champions League. However, the tide is turning and Klopp’s side is starting to find some way, it still remains to be noticed if it is too little, too late.

“I think we think about ourselves and our levels of functionality. Hopefully we can be much more consistent when we come back after the summer. “
It is a testament to Liverpool’s criteria as a club and the criteria Klopp has set for himself in years that with 4 games to play and qualification for the Champions League is still possible, the Reds are very disappointed.
As Henderson said, all eyes are now on the upcoming season to right the wrongs of that tenure.
