Jürgen Klopp (Liverpool): “I’m no longer the man for the job”

Jürgen Klopp (Liverpool coach): “The responsibility that has increased considerably over the years played a significant role in my decision to quit. So I totally agree and at peace with this decision. But I didn’t think it was that difficult, to be honest. Press conferences are very difficult most of the time.

It’s really tiring to always have to talk and explain things that you can’t explain most of the time. When you win it’s good because then you can talk about the individuals, the fantastic achievements, things like that. But you can’t do the same when you lose. You can’t point to a player and talk about him saying he was particularly bad. We cannot do this. That means we eliminate 50, 60, 70% of the things we can say, but we still ask the question. It is much.

To actually be a Liverpool manager, the pure football side, coaching the team, doing what we do, growing together as a group, that’s what I love. I am no longer the man for the job. What is really difficult is you. It is the outside world that is very difficult. »
