Klopp is a genius, he signed a star for half the price of a Manchester City farce

Liverpool FC can boast that its ranks have included world-class players who have marked an era at the club by winning titles that have graced the Anfield showcases, all thanks to the good management of the board and coaching staff who have invested wisely by buying the right players and getting the best out of them, one of them being Thiago Alcántara, who is back in Jürgen Klopp's scheme of things.

Klopp asked for the Spaniard as a priority in 2020, and brought in from the Bundesliga the former Bayern Munich man started with his magic in midfield. No doubt, very unlucky that he is a prone injury player because I'm sure not just Liverpool fans,football lovers they will like to see him more on the pitch because he is a joy to watch. Thiago has only just joined after an ear infection kept him out of recent games.

While money is being wasted at the Etihad and has not been justified in the long-awaited Champions League, Liverpool can boast that they have recently won the 'Orejona' and were also finalists in the last edition in Paris, France. This has caused necessary comparisons between the two sides who despite being on a wide points gap, the last meeting favoured the Merseyside outfit.

Alcántara, who was formed in FC Barcelona's 'La Masia' in 2007, would reach the first team in a couple of years, where he would consolidate his position alongside his brother Rafinha, and from there, he would make the jump to the Bundesliga signing for German giants Bayern Munich in 2013, until 2020 where Klopp convinced him to come to the 'Big Island' and join one of the best teams not only in the Premiere League, but in the world.

Thiago was a steal

Thiago, who played almost the entire game in the victory over SSC Napoli in the UEFA Champions League 22/23 Group Stage, is tipped to play for Spain at the World Cup in Qatar, as experts and Luis Enrique himself, coach of 'La Furia', believe that having him in good form is a plus on the pitch. Thiago is rated as one of the most intelligent players around, with a unique time control.
