Jürgen Klopp on Liverpool appointing Andoni Iraola as their next manager:
🗣️ “I've seen some people questioning this appointment and honestly, I think they're making a huge mistake.
Liverpool haven't hired a manager because of his name. They've hired him because of his work. And in football, that should always be the most important thing.
When I watch Iraola's teams, I see courage. I see intensity. I see players who run like their lives depend on it. I see a team that refuses to be intimidated by anyone.
That sounds very familiar to me.
People forget that before managers become elite, they first have to be given the opportunity. Not everyone arrives with ten trophies and a global reputation.
What matters is whether you can coach. And believe me, this guy can coach.
I faced his teams and they were a nightmare. They pressed, they fought, they attacked and they never stopped believing. You leave those games exhausted.
The thing Liverpool supporters will love is that he doesn't play with fear. He doesn't care about budgets, reputations or big names. He wants to compete. Every single week.
And if he brings that mentality to Anfield, with better players and bigger resources, then the rest of the Premier League should be very worried.
Because Liverpool haven't appointed a caretaker. They haven't appointed a celebrity.
They've appointed a coach who is obsessed with improving, obsessed with competing and obsessed with winning.
And those are usually the most dangerous ones.”

1 year ago today we lost to Newcastle in the Carabao Cup final.
We’ve been shit for a year.
Arne Slot has had 1 year and a massive summer to improve our football.
He’s not able to do it. #LFC
We spent £450m and we're level on points with a Brentford side who are managed by a set piece coach in his first season of management and lost their manager, two best players and captain in the summer.
Sound.
