Jurgen Klopp’s Legacy at Liverpool
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp reflects on his time at the club, emphasizing that he did not consider it a waste of time despite criticisms.
Success and Achievements
- Klopp won eight pieces of silverware during his eight and a half years at Anfield.
- This includes the long-awaited Premier League title in 2020 and the club’s sixth Champions League victory.
Perspective on Criticisms
While acknowledging the viewpoints of his critics, Klopp maintains his own perspective on his tenure:
“I really think it was the absolute opposite of a waste of time. We used absolutely everything and tried to make the best out of everything and tried to enjoy it as much as somehow possible.”
Klopp expresses contentment with the success he achieved, stating:
“For me it is absolutely fine. I know we could have won more but I cannot change that. We could have won less, that’s possible as well.”
Reflecting on past near-misses, Klopp acknowledges the value of those experiences:
“Not becoming champion for a point is not a great experience but it is an experience which shows you that you are really good.”
Despite the disappointments, Klopp remains resolute that he did his best in those moments:
“When you are in it you cannot see it like that. I couldn’t have done anything different in these moments.”
