Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp speaks out on future plans.
When Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp made his final appearance on Tuesday night, he didn’t waste any time in giving his Premier League rival Erik Ten Hag a light-hearted parting jab.
On Tuesday night, departing Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp bid the city’s supporters farewell for the last time while attending a special event at the M&S Bank Arena called “an evening with Jurgen Klopp.”
The 56-year-old Klopp broke down in tears on stage as supporters sang his name one more time. Klopp was a moving presence on stage. The German manager desired to have one last talk with the supporters prior to Slot’s arrival on June 1.
Klopp disapproved of Ten Hag’s job of handling Jadon Sancho. The German manager implied that it was United’s responsibility to assist the player in returning to his peak at Old Trafford rather than sending him out on loan. He said:
“If the whole world loses trust and faith in the player, the manager has to be the one behind the player. I cannot just buy into that ‘he’s useless’, like other clubs did by the way — buying a player for £80m [Sancho] and then sending him out on loan!”
Ten Hag always believed in Sancho’s abilities, although he then realised that he is failing to perform, as his debut season at United saw him score just five goals in 38 appearances.
Then, during the 2022–23 season, some improvement was evident, with Sancho scoring six goals in 26 appearances in the Premier League. Then it was a surprise to all when Sancho was just a substitute for United’s three games in the last season and later sent away with a loan move to Dortmund.
Jurgen Klopp said the truth that it is not the right management style. As a manager, you have to always be patient with the players and use certain techniques to unlock their true potential.
It is wrong to just accept that the player is not performing right and just send him away on a loan move and that too after spending a staggering £73 million to sign the player. That is clearly a waste of transfer money.
It is clear that Klopp was a legendary manager for Liverpool. His ideologies and management techniques depict the German coach’s ability to lead a team to high success. Upcoming coach Arne Slot should take notes if he wants to fully succeed the German at Anfield.
