I don't know much about him Ray, but I suspect that some people have been caught up in some strange messianic type syndrome when it comes to Klopp, they will be claiming he can do miraculous healing next (which would be good if RSC was still here I guess)
People who dont know a lot about him say things like this. People who do know a lot about him dont.
Klopp is about nine million times the manager of Bobbyor Pellers, with all due respect to both of them. He is one of those people who are seen as great thinkers of the game, and his geigenpressing style was revolutionary for the period. Not only this but he has cultivated some of the major talents in European football both in an attacking and defensive sense, then beat Munich to the league title several years running and put his club in a CL final. Most impressively he managed to do this on a comparative shoestring and selling his best players every year.
He is a bit like Cruyff in that he sees the game in a very specific way but has all of the modern management skill you would expect with a great record to boot.
He would do astonishing things with a squad like ours.
