That team was ridiculous. No depth but that first 11. Wow.
As if a pre-season friendly is any test.
Surely we have to see where we come this season before the comparisons can begin?
I think he meant it purely in respect to another poster mentioned Rodgers 4-0 against Dortmund preseason.
Arn.. look away now!

Yep, it's also the season we signed Keane for no reason.
It's hard to say. This side doesn't have a big goal scorer, Rodgers side had Suarez AND a peak Sturridge. It's tough to label that side a one man team because Sturridge, Henderson, Coutinho, Gerrard and even the likes of Enrique chipped in with goals. We pressed then too as a team.
Someone said that team had to win by clear margins, isn't that the case with this team? Both sides had their share of narrow results but also many games like the one at the weekend. As for Suarez carrying us, we can argue that Mane has been a catalyst for this side too. Goals against isn't too far off being the same, but I do feel we're a bit better defensively organised in open play, while our inability to defend set pieces continues to hinder us - we're just less likely to get caught on the break, as Rodgers's side often did.
One obvious like for like in both sides is Gerrard for Milner, both are worth their weight in gold for pens and set pieces.

Suarez versus Klopp.
I reckon the game would be a coin toss but I'm happy we're moving forward with the current set up.
Imagine Suarez in a Klopp team though......

A one off head to head game could go either way. I'd probably bet on a 4-4.
A more interesting question is which team would you rather have for a league campaign.
It remains to be seen if Klopp can go as close (or better) than Rodgers team. However I'd still put my money on Klopp.
Suarez was as likely to do something stupid and be banned as he was to do something brilliant. Likewise Sturridge was as likely to be injured.

Why do people believe these stories?
