The Liverpool we know today is nothing compared to the glory they use to have. Come to talk of their performance this past season, it was one of worst they've done towards the end of the season, and that fully explains that they might not be in good shape to compete with high probability of winning the Champions league, and it quite unfortunate that the had all their players in good shape but yet their performance wasn't good. However if Manchester City keeps up their good form to next season, they are likely to win the league but it seems their favourite opponents Real Madrid is cooking and ready for next season.
Obviously their coach has been a big part of their success story all this years and his absence is definitely going to mean a whole lot to the team because they are definitely going to be a weak on some sides, his tactics has always been one that's unmatching as he's always have a better way to approach other teams and always know the best tactics to use to get the best results they can get against any team they meat and minimize their losses.
This season we did expected he was going to have a very fantastic exit by virtue of the the fact that he will be able win a trophy on his exit which would have been a very remarkable one, he was even making a good attempt in that regards in the way they performed this season at some point and I personally was expecting they will even win two trophies, probably the Europa and the premier league trophies.
One season has just ended and the teams have started preparing for another season. It happens every season that when a team exits the Champions League group stage in the quarter-finals or semi-finals, they start planning to improve the next season from there. Manchester City Bayern Munich were the favorites this season but they lost so they will definitely try to do well in the Champions League next season. Real Madrid have strengthened their squad so expectations are high from them next season.
