Liverpool are temporarily leading the Premier League table this season, but Salah's injury has made the road to the title full of uncertainty, after all, the Egyptian, who has scored 14 goals and provided eight assists in the Premier League this season, is an indispensable thigh, compared to the news that Klopp stepped down as Liverpool manager at the end of the season is the real fatal factor. Accidents are always caught off guard, and the CBS reporter's emotion represents the voice of the fans: "Oh my God, Jurgen Klopp is leaving Liverpool!
During the eight and a half years of Klopp's tenure, Liverpool truly achieved "the Reds are not afraid of difficult expeditions", leading the team to participate in 464 games with 288 wins, 96 draws and 80 losses, and won 1 Premier League title, 1 FA Cup, 1 League Cup, 1 Community Shield, 1 Champions League, 1 UEFA Super Cup and 1 Club World Cup.
After all, the German helped Liverpool stand on the podium of the Club World Cup for the first time, and won the League Cup for the first time in 10 years, the Champions League for the first time in 14 years, the FA Cup for the first time in 16 years, and the most exciting thing is to win the English top flight championship for the first time in 30 years in 7 rounds in advance, and the most important thing is that the joy of the championship is not finished.
Liverpool's contract extension with Jurgen Klopp a year and a half ago until 2026 is a well-deserved product and a worthwhile reward, and Reds veteran Marcos Alonso once sighed: "I remember when Jurgen Klopp signed with Liverpool, I immediately felt that he was the right person. The German, on the other hand, has turned down offers from Paris, Real Madrid and the German national team on more than one occasion in order to continue his love for Liverpool, for a simple reason: "I don't know what it would do me to get out of here. "It's a two-way street, but don't forget that Jurgen Klopp admitted when he was in charge of the Bundesliga that he loved Anfield.
It is true that there is no such thing as a feast that will not be dispersed, but the courage to disperse is not innate, and even many fans are afraid to imagine what Liverpool will be like without Klopp. It is worth mentioning that Jurgen Klopp has hinted that it was a surprise that he could stay after failing to qualify for the Champions League last season, but Liverpool, who trust the German 100%, is not simply paying for feelings, at least the Reds have regained the qualifications of longing and distance under Klopp, who has a 60.7% winning rate in charge. Passionate people always have a self-sustaining obsession, and Klopp, who has made a comeback in the new season, has responded to Liverpool's expectations from time to time, and the rapids retreat seems to be a kind of self-preservation.
Recalling the 2020-21 season, the sluggish Liverpool once won only 1 game in 7 games, and there were not a few celebrities who advised Klopp to leave at that time, so that the topic of "Klopp is out of class" quickly appeared on the British Twitter hot search list, but the Germans who survived diluted the rumors with their ability to strategize. In the 21-22 season, he became the first coach in history to reach the Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup finals in a single season, and in the 22-23 season he set the record for the longest consecutive knockout stage qualification for Liverpool since the Champions League was restructured. The Germans with the spirit of rock 'n' roll are unbeatable, and Klopp, who played the 2.0 version before the end of the new season, has the right to set a cooling-off period for himself.
"How to say it, my energy is exhausted", Klopp explained the reason for his parting of ways with Liverpool, it is reported that the German had notified Liverpool's management in advance in November last year, as the established core of Liverpool's long-term planning, Klopp's departure is not easy to heal and make up for the loss, even though the British media quickly put Alonso, De Zerbi, Nagelsmann and Conte are regarded as successors, but aside from the aura of a famous coach and the resume of a giant, it is a lingering topic compared to his predecessor Klopp, and it will even inspire fans in advance to feel nostalgic for "some people are not there once they miss it".
Meet the right person at the right time, Klopp and Liverpool seem to be natural soul mates, he gave up Rodgers's pass-and-control football, and instead cultivated the tactics of instant acceleration and high pressing, even though he experienced the dilemma of "robbing the rich and helping the poor" at the beginning of the takeover, but if the value of coaching is measured by championship and time, Klopp is Liverpool's chosen son. It is worth mentioning that when the German first took over, Manchester United's Alex Ferguson called for the German: "A lot of people focus on the statistics of the players and ignore the ideas and theories of the manager.
Despite the verbal clashes between Mourinho and Jurgen Klopp at the Double Red, the former did not lose his right to praise his opponents, and of course, the German said early on: "You can't win a game without good tactics, but words and emotional motivation can make all the difference." ”
Klopp didn't succeed for nothing. In charge of Mainz, he helped the club reach the top flight of the Bundesliga for the first time in its history and led the team to European qualification for the first time in the club's history, and Borussia Dortmund, who also led the team to win the Bundesliga record for the most points, winning five consecutive games against Bayern Munich in all competitions for the first time in the team's history. Jurgen Klopp, who has failed to survive the seven-year itch twice in a row, has continued his success at Liverpool to the extreme, and even if the head assistant coach Bwach left in 2018, it did not prevent the magnificent chapter of "You will never walk alone".
But if you look at Klopp's eight and a half years in charge of Liverpool, it seems to have exceeded the public's initial expectations, and now that the countdown to the breakup is heading down, Klopp's words are more like a belated validation: "I knew I had to announce it at some point, but I'm absolutely fine now. ”
The countdown to Klopp's resignation as Liverpool manager has begun, but the blessings and nostalgia have not been suppressed, and even the official account of the FA Cup posted a photo of Klopp with the trophy on social media, and wrote: "Klopp will leave Liverpool at the end of the season, and his last game in charge of the Reds may be the 2024 FA Cup final." "For Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool, the title is indeed the best parting gift, but the willingness of each other is not necessarily satisfied with a trophy.
Leaving means crossing the sea of people, and it also means never walking alone, good luck, Uncle Scum!
