As Jurgen Klopp reaches his eight-year anniversary at Liverpool, he is a man re-energised by a young, vibrant new team
The setting was the Shankly Hotel in the heart of Liverpool. Looking tanned and relaxed after his summer break, Jurgen Klopp arrived having overseen the first day of pre-season training at Liverpool’s Kirkby base. Just 350 tickets had been made available for a rare audience with the manager and they sold out online in less than five minutes. Based solely on the initial rush for tickets to the event in early July, organisers could have packed out the venue 20 times over.
The support for him from owners Fenway Sports Group was unwavering and not once did the public turn. He had earned that loyalty and the right to oversee the summer rebuild. Advertisement Yet as the problems kept mounting and the pressure built, it was natural to wonder whether he could really halt the slide.
