However, regardless of whether they are successful in this pursuit, the pressure is mounting on Liverpool’s owners to ensure that this summer is not a season of regression. However, with Champions League qualification currently unlikely, Klopp needs Liverpool to act swiftly to avoid standing still once again. Liverpool’s transfer strategy has been questioned on social media, with some feeling that the club has failed to compete for one of the best English midfielders on the market. Given increased competition for the top four and the importance of Champions League money to Liverpool, Klopp needs to act quickly to polish his rough diamonds into title-winning players. While fans on social media may demand more, Liverpool may need to focus on qualifying for the Champions League and making strategic, smart signings in the summer.
