10 Things Liverpool Fans Need To Know About Jurgen Klopp

7. He Is Perfect For The English Game

"What I love is not serenity football, it's fighting football - that's what I like. What we call in Germany - English football; rainy day, heavy pitch, everybody is dirty in the face and they go home and can't play football for the next four weeks," said Jurgen Klopp during an interview with the Mirror. What's not to like about that? The German manager is partial to an outburst, argument or raging stare at the fourth official and will therefore slot nicely into the Premier League. He offers fast, counter-attacking and physical football that I feel the majority of English sides would struggle to deal with.
