I am enjoying it! Such periods of disappointments and mistakes are part of life of a football fan. Yes, we are at the moment walking through a veritable storm, but we have a young, talented team and one of the best managers in world football (who plays an exciting brand of football!). We are competing with the best teams in the country and that without spending an absolute fortune like three competitors, without having the stability of the same manager for 20 years and without having a manager with multiple Premier League seasons under his belt. Adding to that, not one of the 5 clubs described has been able to beat us this season and last season we only had one defeat against these teams under Jürgen Klopp. Yes, absolutely, we do have our weaknesses and we have had them now for years: bad defence, questionable goalkeeping, questions about who leads the line... These problems exist, but compared to previous managers I think Klopp actively tries to do something about them, and I don't just mean getting in new players and getting rid of the ones deemed not good enough (although this is a big part of his job). He is a fantastic coach and you can see it in the notable improvements of Lallana, Henderson, Coutinho, Firmino, Clyne, to name a few. Also we are bringing through young players again and our team is seriously fit - we are the team with most ground covered in the whole league and it's not even close.
We are making progress. We can still reach the top 4, which was the goal at the beginning of the season. At the moment, we got 49 points from 26 games, last season, we had 38 points. This season we have scored 55 goals already (joint-top in the league), while last season at the same point it was 38. This is a 11-point swing and 17 goals more scored, if this isn't progress, I don't know what should be. We couldn't reach the Cup Final, but that's the way it is sometimes. We had our worst form at the worst moment of the season. But what should make us proud and happy: we are a top team again. Teams who come to play against us, get absolutely annihilated. That's why everybody just tries to sit back against us, because they know we would dominate them not only when it comes to possession and chances, but also on the scoreboard. Right now their approach has worked, most of the time because our defence just isn't up to speed, but it won't work forever. A very good patch of form is coming and I will have a great time watching us turn Arsenal over on the weekend and exposing their soft underbelly. I think it could very well be that they will get an almighty hammering from us, something along the lines of the 13/14 season. We have a tough run of games coming up and under Jürgen Klopp we have always delivered when the going got tough. This suits us better than playing relegation candidates that don't even want to have the ball.
