The national media's take on Liverpool's 3-3 draw with Aston Villa on Monday night - which was Jurgen Klopp final game away from home as Reds manager
The final away day for Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool manager ended with a 3-3 draw at Aston Villa as his sideconceded twice late on to be held.
The Independent's Rich Jolly writes: "There was a twist on a theme: late goals and comebacks have been a staple of Liverpool’s season. This time they suffered from them, Aston Villa scoring twice in four late minutes. Eight days earlier, they had led 4-0 against Tottenham and risked only drawing.
"There are ways of assessing the Klopp years. In a sense, it ends as it starts: his second team, like his first, has been built from the front, forever capable of scoring. In the 27 years before Klopp’s arrival, Liverpool had only scored 80 league goals in one season. They have done so in five campaigns under the German.
"Aston Villa are not short of celebrity fans — with heir to the throne Prince William here at the last home game. On Monday night was Hollywood royalty, as Tom Hanks watched the action. Thought he might have been a Forrest fan. Speaking of Hanks, one player who seems to be cast away at the moment is Darwin Nunez, who again was on the Liverpool substitutes’ bench.
"Not from the visiting Liverpool supporters, who were as demob happy as their manager and those away players who came to Birmingham to have a bit of fun with the ball while making it optional to show the necessary application necessary to win it back. In the ECHO's analysis of the game, Ian Doyle wrote: "It was wholly appropriate that Jurgen Klopp’s away adventure should come to an end at Villa Park. The stadium, after all, has hosted some of the most memorable, mystifying and frankly maddening road trips for Liverpool during the past decade.
