Jurgen Klopp's first Liverpool match

So how did the first match of Jurgen Klopp in charge of Liverpool for the first time fared for him.


Liverpool against Tottenham has been a high scoring games in recent past but here it was a different scenario. Here was a manager in Jurgen Klopp who has just come in after the season had already begun, barely getting time to know his players due to the international friendlies and not have enough time to take more than 3 training sessions to get his idea across the team.


Liverpool are going through one of their worst injury crisis in recent past with several first team key players missing. The likes of club captain Jordan Henderson, Daniel Sturridge, Christian Benteke, Roberto Fermino, Danny Ings and Joe Gomez all missing out due to various injuries did not help Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool football club.


Match Preview
Liverpool started the match brightly with high pressing and pace as Jurgen Klopp describes it as full throttle Football. They dominated the ball for the first 15 mins and had several chances to score. Liverpool's best chance early on came from a corner which Divock Origi headed for the goal only to see his powerful header hit the post and then cleared off the line.


After that initial period of domination by Liverpool, Tottenham came into the match and had a few goal scoring opportunities of their own only to be denied by the brilliant saves by Simon Mignolet. The first half ended with the score line being 0-0.


In the second period again Tottenham were more adventurous and Mignolet again saved Liverpool by a brilliant save from Harry Kane to deny Tottenham the lead. Emre Can had been the best player of Liverpool in the match with his running and pressing had a good shot nearly end of the match which went inches wide of the post. The final score was 0-0 which was a fair result as both teams were even and had good opportunities to win the match.

Jurgen Klopp: Welcome to Liverpool

Jurgen Klopp

Former Borussia Dortmund Manager Jurgen Klopp has agreed to sign a three years contract with Liverpool and replace Brendan Rodgers as their new Manager. He will be officially unveiled in a press conference on Friday 10 am BST.

Being the manager of such a hugely popular team with a fan base of millions around the globe can some time overwhelm people but here is a man who thrives on such challenges.

Never before in recent history of Liverpool a managerial appointment has brought such an excitement among the fans but then again in recent history Liverpool never had a manager of world class qualities. But in Jurgen Klopp they are getting a manager who has tons of Managerial experience of the highest quality.

The fans are going to love him as he shares the same passion and love for the game as most of us fans feels. In one of his famous Quotes he had told that tactics is very much important but emotion makes the difference. He understands the passion of the fans and he always had a wonderful relationship with the fans wherever he had coached previously.

He is like a perfect match for Liverpool, almost like a match made in heaven and I hope he gets Liverpool to their former heights of glory.    

Contenders for Manager at Liverpool F.C.

At this time Liverpool is looking at Jurgen Klopp and Carlo Ancelotti to replace Brendan Rodgers at Liverpool.


As per some media reports talks have already begun with Jurgen Klopp's representatives and its just a matter of days that he would be announced as the Liverpool Manager. He fits the bill as well as being a young Manager with lots of passion for the game and for the supporters.


Carlo Ancelotti on the other hand is hugely experienced contender as he has managed some of the top clubs such as AC Milan, Real Madrid and Chelsea. Both are world class managers but I would prefer Jurgen Klopp to be the new manager at this time as lots of work need to be done to mold the squad to play like a team and Jurgen Klopp has the passion and enthusiasm to do that.

Liverpool Sack Brendan Rodgers

There's the Breaking News coming on now that Liverpool have sacked manager Brendan Rodgers after the run of recent poor results.
