Biggest compliment I can give him is that Shankly would have loved him
There is only one Bill Shankly and there is only one Jürgen klopp .its going to be nothing short of weird for the next few months not seeing him or hearing his big laugh
Biggest compliment I can give Klopp is that he reminds me of Shanks. He was pivotal in putting you on the map all those years ago. He built Liverpool from nothing and made you the dominant force you were back then. What’s freaky is both managers also left your club for the same reason ( tiredness) then Sir Bob took over and continued where Shanks left of.
All though I’m biased and vote partly with my heart and think Klopp arguably number two is basically because like Shanks he started with Liverpool being nothing and made you big again after a 30 year wait winning the holy grail ( Premier League ) of trophies again.
Klopp didn’t have a ready made team, he built it from pretty much limited funds compared to other teams. When he bought VVD that for me was the major turn around in building a side that then went on to win a few of the major trophies in England & Europe.
The more I think about it I’ve actually realised one of the reasons why I’ve lasted over 10 years on this site is because of the respect I have for him, not bad for a manc I suppose. 😂 Not sure how I’m feeling about tomorrow but if there is a bright side it’s that for me you’ll struggle without him.
Anyway, you lot make sure you’ve got the hankies ready as you’ll need them. I’m sure he will get the send of he fully deserves.
