Right now, most football clubs on the planet would love to be in Liverpool’s shoes.
The Reds are the reigning European champions and are 25 points clear at the top of the Premier League table. Whilst they will be unable to defend their Champions League title this year following their defeat against Atletico Madrid in the Round of 16, they are still one of the best teams in the world.

That wasn’t always the case, though. At the start of the previous decade, they were very far away from where they are now, with the likes of Roy Hodgson managing the club. There were also some questionable decisions, such as the “Being Liverpool” television series which followed the players straight after the 2012 FA Cup final loss against Chelsea.

The Athletic’s James Pearce has put together an article looking back at the show, and he has shared it on his Twitter page. This has led to many of the supporters discussing the programme, and it seems they are far from fond of it – one even called it a “PR disaster”. They have taken to the social media platform to share their thoughts, and you can see some of the best comments from the social media platform below.
It was a shambles and we were a laughing stock. That’s all there is to it

Totally ridiculous and unnecessary. Luckily we’ve got Klopp now and he’d never allow this to interfere with footballing matters. Steady now.

Everything about this was just so wrong. We deserved to be a banter club when this came out

Rodgers thought it was cringeworthy.
I tend to agree.
It seemed to have been developed mainly for the US audience once FSG took over.

Rodgers was part to blame for that cuz he was inexperienced
