After news that Manchester City have been found guilty of 114 of the 115 charges being levelled at them by the Premier League on Friday, a lot of Liverpool fans’ thoughts will have turned to Jurgen Klopp.The former Reds manager was back in the dugout for the first time in more than two years on Thursday as he kicked off his reign of the German national team, but Klopp will forever be most remembered for his stint at Anfield between 2015 and 2024.That incredibly successful spell would have been even more trophy-laden had it not been for City, who were officially breaking the rules on a systematic basis. What's gone well, and what still needs work? 🤔 Klopp would come back to Liverpool for a title paradeThough many fans are surmising that Liverpool could win as many as three more Premier League crowns if City’s are taken off them and awarded to whoever came second that season, the truth is that the Reds would only be given one more.Furthermore, the one they would get would not be for Klopp’s time at Anfield, with the charging relating to the period between 2009 and 2018.
Liverpool came second once to City in that time, during Brendan Rodgers’ reign in 2013/14.Nevertheless, as journalist James Pearce recalled after the verdict on Friday, Klopp was all for coming back to celebrate if Liverpool are given another Premier League win.“Klopp’s Liverpool lost out to Man City in both the 18/19 & 21/22 title races by a solitary point,” Pearce posted on X.Klopp's Liverpool lost out to Man City in both the 18/19 & 21/22 title races by a solitary point.When asked after his departure in 2024 about the possibility of City being stripped of titles, Klopp said: “If you organise a bus parade, I am in!
