Liverpool Won’t Crumble As A Club After I Leave – Klopp

Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp has come out to back the club to continue thriving when a new manager takes over. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, Liverpool will not end as a football club after he leaves, and he expects his exit to usher in another project with a really good squad.

Klopp added that it is also a good test for the players to have to prove themselves again with new influences.

His words, “Of course, it’s not perfect as if it was we’d have five or six points more and would still be fighting for the league. But if you rewind to the start of the season, I called it Liverpool 2.0… Liverpool 2.0 doesn’t stop after I leave. It’s just the start of another project with a really good squad.

It’s good for the players now not to know what to expect. It’s good that they have to prove themselves again with new influences. It’s always good in life. We always go for security, the same holiday, the same hotel and the same spot on the beach. But actually, it makes sense to go to another beach as well.”

WOW.

Liverpool Football Club is a professional football club based in Liverpool, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top tier of English football. Founded in 1892, the club joined the Football League the following year and has played its home games at Anfield since its formation.

Domestically, the club has won 19 league titles, eight FA Cups, a record nine League Cups and 16 FA Community Shields. In international competitions, the club has won six European Cups, three UEFA Cups, four UEFA Super Cups—all English records—and one FIFA Club World Cup.

The club established itself as a major force in domestic and European football in the 1970s and 1980s, when Bill Shankly, Bob Paisley, Joe Fagan and Kenny Dalglish, led the club to a combined 11 League titles and four European Cups. Liverpool won two further European Cups in 2005 and 2019 under the management of Rafael Benítez and Jürgen Klopp, respectively; the latter led Liverpool to a 19th league title in 2020, the club’s first during the Premier League era.

Anfield was built in 1884 on land adjacent to Stanley Park. Situated 2 miles (3 km) from Liverpool city centre, it was originally used by Everton before the club moved to Goodison Park after a dispute over rent with Anfield owner John Houlding. Left with an empty ground, Houlding founded Liverpool in 1892 and the club has played at Anfield ever since. The capacity of the stadium at the time was 20,000, although only 100 spectators attended Liverpool’s first match at Anfield.
