What Would Lure Him Back?

“No nostalgia for the changing area per se, however, dining out with the players talking freely, I appreciate that. We won a lot of games thus frequently positive atmosphere at the club. I still have the captain's chuckle ringing in my ears as an instance.”

Praise for His Successor

“[Liverpool have] a phenomenal forward such as Wirtz, you will all eat your words with negative comments. He’s an incredible talent. [Hugo] Ekitike, superb talent. It’s a really good well-judged squad. You don’t have to worry about Liverpool, they will be fine.”

Emotional Tribute for the Late Forward

Klopp also spoke emotionally on the loss of Diogo Jota, a player he signed while in charge, and its impact at the club. The Portugal international lost his life in a road accident together with his sibling recently.

“Can you substitute somebody like Diogo? It’s not about his on-field talent, it's his character. It's hard to picture the dressing room without him in it. I find it difficult to discuss on this topic. It was an incredible shock for his teammates also. Nobody at Liverpool might employ it for poor performances though it's a fact. Entering the changing area where he was omnipresent. Dealing with that emotionally is not easy. Overwhelming.”
