I think we'll have a "will they go, will they stay" saga for the latter half of the summer through the press with one of the big Spanish clubs for one of the front 3. They will (eventually) go and the press deems it the end of our chances of winning anything but we replace them and carry on where we left off. The player will have been really respectful this time but will struggle in the new environment again because they aren't set up in the right way and will probably regret it.
Klopp signs a new deal to add a couple of years on and a huge pay rise. There will be rumours of one of the Milan clubs, Barca, Newcastle (after the dodgy sheik turns up) and Bayern trying to hijack the deal, but he signs and the internet terrorists go full on offense against that team. We eventually build a fortress around Klopp's house and chip in for Ocado home food delivery so he can't be accosted at the shops.
We batter Chelsea (now managed by Lampard) in the Super Cup in Istanbul and while there the red hordes book up all the hotel rooms for the Champions League final later in the year.
We go unbeaten til about late December/early January in all comps, cruising through our CL group and getting through the League Cup as we go along. However we will pick up a couple of injuries along the way, one of them serious.
We win the Club World Cup in Quatar beating the one of the less favoured champs in the final after an upset incolcing the South american champions, Despite not many reds from Liverpool heading over due to the beer situation, we still dominate the stadium as the arabic/middle eastern and North African reds step up for a chance to see their heroes win a trophy in person.
We batter Everton in the first Derby at Goodison during which the blues chant "You lost the league at Goodison" for 30 minutes before reverting to type of Boo, Handball, Redshite ref, deal with the devil and Fuck OFF after we knock in our 3rd of the first half. They still get 5 players in the Merseyside team of 2019 in the Echo and claim it should have been more.
We have another slight wobble in February, by which I mean we lose a game and draw one to a team like West Ham/Leicester/Wolves and everyone proclaims the sky is falling in again and it wouldn't have happened with "that player from the summer leaving" being here.
We win the Premier League by mid April after City drop points after crashing out the champions league unexpectedly to a fellow English side again. The reds meanwhile manage to reach the final again, this time Vs that Spanish team we sold the front 3 fella to and the narrative starts up that we created our own downfall. As it is, we win and everyone outside of Anfield is shocked to discover that Klopp and Edwards know what they are doing.
We win the FA cup too beating United in the final. Ole is still there despite finishing 5th in the table and getting tonked by Barca or Bayern in the Champions League. Before the game he mentions 1999 and all that 50 times and compares his defenders to Ferdinand and Bruce even thiugh it's literally Jones and Smalling.
