Number three: Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool

Jurgen Klopp has turned Liverpool from a boring long-passing type of team into one of the most attractive attacking teams in Europe.

Their trio of Sadio Mane, Coutinho and Firminio has struck fear into all of the Premier League teams taht have played them. Much so, that teams such as Manchester United and Chelsea deliberately set up defensively in order to gain a point against the reds.

Klopp was responsible for Borussia Dortmund’s recent dominance in the Bundesliga and the Champions League in previous years.

While Liverpool have struggled this season against weaker teams, they are still a major title contender for the Premier League should Chelsea slip up.

Klopp would endear himself to the Barcelona faithful and the board with his attacking style of football. He plays a high- press with an emphasis on passing and keeping possession in the final third. Much like how Barcelona usually play.

Recent wide-spread reports have emerged that Barcelona are after Klopp’s signature and it’s easy to see why.

He has won two Bundesliga titles with Dortmund and taken them to the Champions League Final.

It’s hard to see Klopp leaving Anfield though as he has taken a liking to the Liverpool faithful and vice-versa. But Barcelona are not a easy team to turn down with Messi, Neymar and Suarez in the team.
