A letter from Jurgen Klopp to the fans…
Before I came to Liverpool I had never written a letter to a newspaper in my life. Now I am writing my second letter to the Liverpool Echo which probably tells you a few things.
The first is I am probably now at 'that age'. The second is that this is a newspaper that plays a big role in this city. The third is that it is a great way for me to speak to as many people who live here as possible.
The most important reason, though, is that it is time for me to say Goodbye. I know that this is no longer news but it is important that I say it to you.
For me, Liverpool is the city of open arms. A place that welcomes you like a son and does not care where you come from. It just wants you to be part of it and I could not be prouder that you allowed me to have that incredible privilege.
A city that gives this kind of welcome deserves at the very least a proper farewell.
There is so much I could say right now and there are so many special moments I could talk about. On and off the pitch we have created memories between us that will live with me for ever.
But when I think of this city and its wonderful people, the biggest lesson I will take with me is that giving up is definitely not in the Scouse dictionary If you are from here, the chances are that you are not just ready to fight, you actually want to fight. Not only that, the way you stand together, in all kinds of circumstances, means that even when the odds are against you it is still possible to win.
I love this more than I could ever say.
This is why one of my proudest moments was being given the freedom of Liverpool. To receive that honour on a night when the leaders of the city spoke of me, a boy from the Black Forest, as if I was one of their own is one of the greatest privileges of my life.
The same goes for the homecoming parades. Wow.
Sharing moments of success with the people could only ever be special no matter what club you are at but the way that Liverpool does it takes it to a whole new level. That is even like this the day after a big disappointment – as happened in 2022 – makes it even more extraordinary.
On top of this, I have loved that this is a city of football. No matter where you go in Liverpool and no matter who you speak to, the people want to talk about football. Not just chat either. Every single word comes with a passion and a love for the game.
Of course, I am of the Red side and always will be now but I know from experience that the same is absolutely true of the Blue side. Living close to the River Mersey clearly has this effect on people.
Tomorrow will be the last time that I manage Liverpool FC and it will be an occasion when we will once again look to do our supporters proud but it will also be an opportunity to remember the times that we have had together.
For me, all of those memories will come with love and with thanks for the time I have had here. Liverpool is a city that we lived in and worked in but it is also a place that we fell in love with. We owe it so much.
All that remains for me now is to wish all of you the very best for the future. Liverpool deserves that. YOU deserve that.
Thank you. Thank you for everything. Thank you Luv.

Our Unity is Strength
I close my eyes
And I’m back there again
It’s 1989
And I’m trapped in that pen.
I can’t breath anymore
I’m drifting away
The memories are vivid
Of that horrific day.
I open my eyes
It’s been 35 years
But the feelings are raw
And so are the tears.
We will never forget
What happened back then
To the 97 children,
Women and men.
We are the survivors
Who will tell you at length
The truth of that day
Our unity is strength.

This video will make you cry.
Jurgen Klopp in tears as Anfield sings You’ll Never Walk Alone after his announcement that he will be leaving the club at the end of the season♥️😢
1974 Bill Shankly unexpectedly retires, I’ve seen all the Videos, Men Woman Kids crying in disbelief.
The Man who took us from the 2nd division and made us Champions home and Abroad, the Man who brought the first ever Fa Cup home & 500’000 greeted him like a messiah.
Shankly the man who fed from us and the Kop and vice versa, the Peoples Man. When Shankly spoke you listened, when Shankly walked into a room that room fell quiet. The Man who stands on St George’s hall plateau or in front of a rammed adoring Kop lifts both his arms like Moses parting the Sea, the Man who picks up a Liverpool scarf from the floor and places it around his neck, the Man who has supporters at his feet kissing his shoes, The Man who could walk on water.
Then came along Paisley and Joe, cue Kenny Houllier Rafa they all up there with the very best, with their own ways with their own personalities with their own quietness shyness noises and all came with different characters but slotted in like it was meant to be.
Then came along our Jürgen who from minute 1 bowled us over, from North to South East to West just like that!
BANG ICH BIN EIN SCOUSER!!!!!
(Fuck now me eyes are starting to fill up ffs)
Fist pumps touchline madness ALLEZ ALLEZ ALLEZ Jamie Webster Basel Kiev Madrid Paris and Wembley, Origi winner v Little Arms…..and off goes Herr Klopp….he’s fucking running onto the pitch like a madman, 50’000 Kopites wanted to do what he did and Jürgen done it for us, he generated absolute chaos home and away, Jürgen spoke up for us, the Team the Club The Badge the Tea Lady, he stuck up for injustice and he spoke on our behalf and told the world THIS IS LIVERPOOL FOOTBALL CLUB.
Jürgen Shankly Klopp fed from us, we adore him he adores us and it was and still is the perfect mix.
He gave us our identity back, he made us stick our chests out and he made us believe again. When Klopp spoke you listened, when Klopp walked into a room that room fell quiet.
Jürgen and Shankly, sound Men from the same mould, Men who got us and we got them.
The biggest compliment I can make to Jürgen is that I always have the feeling he’s one of us, Mad Caring Brave Chaotic True Honest and Messed up at the same time.
Jürgen Norbert Klopp, you are us and we are you.
Now let’s go out there, win that league title and you will witness the Homecoming of all Homecomings.
BOSS THA JÜRGEN 🔥
