Liverpool are almost ready for a new era, with just a handful of games left to play under Jurgen Klopp.
The hope had been that Klopp would be able to end his Liverpool reign on the highest of highs.
Nevertheless, it’s coming.

it’s probably true that Liverpool have overachieved somewhat this season.
Writing for The Telegraph on Friday though, Carragher thinks Liverpool would be a certainty to be up there next season under Klopp.
“Klopp’s successor, who it now appears will be Feyenoord’s Arne Slot, has plenty to improve after a season which has ultimately promised more than it delivered,” he says.
“No coach arriving at Anfield should consider it an unattainable challenge to make his first year at Liverpool better than Klopp’s last.
With Slot, that absolute belief will give way to hope.”
Although we think it’s best for everyone to wait and see before making judgements about Slot, it’s hard to argue against Carragher’s point.
Under Klopp, you’d back Liverpool to build on a season of improvement and really make an assault at the league and Champions League next year.
