Some of that is a little concerning if you're a huge club thinking you want Klopp to take over a lineup of galacticos
Agreed. I have my doubts about a huge club giving him the time and control to implement his philosophy. Even though I think City is in a situation where they would benefit from Klopp in long run, I don't think they have the patience for him either.
Personally, I think Milan would be a great project for him because they need some clear direction. Unfortunately, the uncertainty around the sale of the club might scare Klopp away.

It is certainly a good point about forwards scoring goals but I was intending more to say that the breakdown behind them may be much more the issue.
Against Juve, for example, Immobile and Aubameyang only touched to ball infrequently when the dropped to play little passes 25 meters out with a wall of defenders in front of them when Juve conceded possession. The press never resulted in getting these guys into open spaces, which is what they're actually good at.
Gotcha. I was thinking more from the standpoint that they haven't finished well when they've had goalscoring opportunities. But the problems elsewhere on the field certainly might be the bigger issue.

I'm not the best to judge the whole season form since I've watched them only in higher profile matches. Forwards not finishing chances may be their problem against some of the lower table sides.
I've seen them, midfielders and CBs getting beaten too easily when pressing has been the main issue. I would add though that they seem to have few ideas on how to break down a team that concedes possession and doesn't care if they nick it back in non-threatening positions.

AC Milan could certainly use some direction but I'd imagine their way will be bring in investors and throw money at it.
If Inter didn't have Mancini now with the owner's support to re-build that would be a good fit since they're really focusing on younger players and have a good youth system.

Would love to see him try to right the ship in Milan. Some rough times after the great start to the year.

Like Hendo was saying about Madrid, the City fans and front office would also get pissed when he would start these random kids over super stars making 200k a week.
