Really???
For the standards Rafa had set, yes we were. Fully understandable with the c*nts at the top of the club being in all out war with each other. 7th placed league finish, out of the CL at the group stage, out of the FA Cup in R3 v Reading, League cup to Arsenal, not convinciing in the Europa even tough we made the semis, it was a poor season. Rafa was entitled to one though, he'd given us so many great seasons before it that he deserved that one to be written off as just one of those things.
As for the current season, as others have said, its still early days for Klopp, we are about where we can realistically expect to be. Its not a disaster if we fail to get CL - I honestly believe the players he wants will come anyway as they will want to play for him and know that they WILL get CL and will be challenging for the title and the CL, but like anyone I want to see CL back at Anfield and really want us to get top 4 this season. I also feel it won't be too early for him, he knows the CL and will do well, the players just need to show that they want the stage too - its 4 cup finals, just go out and win them all.
