So far, Klopp has stayed silent on the topic and was tight-lipped when approached by a reporter from German daily Bild on Monday, while the British media are reporting that Klopp’s appointment at Anfield is imminent. He managed to win back-to-back Bundesliga titles and take them to a Champions League final with a limited budget.
FSG are hopeful that Klopp, who has been out of work since leaving Borussia Dortmund in May to take a sabbatical, will prove a catalyst for better results. “I think Klopp is best for the club”, Beckenbauer told BBC Radio 5 live.
“I think there are strong parallels between Dortmund and Liverpool with the passion and size of their support”, said Low.
Former Everton manager Moyes was replaced by Louis Van Gaal at Manchester United, despite enjoying considerable success with the Blues on a limited budget.
“This guy says, “no, no, I think this squad is alright”.
“I can definitely see it happening and there’s no reservations at all in terms of his expertise”, Kahn said.
In fact, Liverpool’s American owners, Fenway Sports Group, had decided the week before to make do with Rodgers and end his reign in charge. There are not many coaches left in the world that like to talk so much to the players but he is one of them.
“Only the language may be a barrier”.
Or at least that’s what the Telegraph believe, as they have suggested Rodgers is near the top of the English FA’s wish list as a potential replacement for Roy Hodgson.
Former Bayer Leverkusen coach Christoph Daum sees no such problem and feels Klopp’s infectious positivity will ensure he gets his motivational messages across. “I liked him as a man, as a manager, his man-management style was very good, but that’s the club’s idea so we all stand by that decision”. I like the way they are with their teams.
