There’s a video from the Villareal game going around at the moment. It shows Jurgen Klopp watching James Milner throw himself wholeheartedly into the shins of a Villareal player in the last minute. Jurgen leaps up at this and does that strange arm thing he likes to do. He then turns to the crowd...
The Liverpool boss is having a positive impact on the fans; even the doubters are slowly but surely being converted into believers. Some fans have even likened to him to football's equivalent of a messiah figure, here to steer Liverpool Football Club out of the dark times and restore this great club back to...
It's hard to believe that Jurgen Klopp took over as Liverpool manager just six months ago. The Reds looked like a team that had lost its identity in the latter stages of Brendan Rodgers’ reign but now, following their recent 4-1 win against Stoke City, Liverpool look like a side with confidence flowing through...
Jurgen Klopp is an exception within management for many reasons; he doesn't shy away from attention and is more than happy to speak to the press with emotion and honesty; he involves himself completely with every employment, submerging in the fantasy of every club and some could say 'too much;' he remains a 'Rockstar'...

Jurgen Klopp is at Anfield. Jurgen Klopp is the Liverpool manager. Jurgen Klopp is ours. If you do not believe it, do keep repeating it until you believe it.
Every club who changes their manager during the season hope for something, which is now more commonly termed as the 'honey moon effect' or 'manager bounce'....
The Jugen Klopp shadow has been cast over Anfield since the 2014/15 season ended. The German left Dortmund having taken them from midtable mediocrity to one of the most efficient and exciting teams to watch within two seasons of taking charge. He toppled the might of Bayern Munich. He cast aside the lingering Bayer...
The Calm before the Storm.
It's always a little difficult when you're having to start over in any walk of life. You get to start afresh and there must be a fear that if you get it wrong, again, you may not be able to recover. Outsiders looking in may consider it an easy job...
It all went a bit sour in the last 12 months of Brendan Rodgers’ reign.
Turgid football, plenty of excuses and pathetic digs about a bloke whitening his teeth and getting a tan.
