Jose Enrique has expressed disbelief at fresh reports that have surfaced about Jurgen Klopp and his Liverpool future.

The Spanish ex-fullback reacted on Twitter to a claim made by SportBible (originating from CaughtOffside) asserting that the German’s position at Anfield could be under threat whilst Bayern Munich’s Julian Nagelsmann has been allegedly ‘earmarked’ as a possible replacement.

The Reds’ woes this term took another turn for the worse as Champions League holders Real Madrid exposed the hosts’ vulnerabilities in a devastating second-half of football.

It’s quite the fall from grace to go from being the side viewed as an equal, if not slightly superior, to Los Blancos ahead of the Paris Champions League final last year, to looking virtually unrecognisable to the team that came within two games of entering the history books.

That collapse can be traced in part – but only in part – to some of the manager’s decisions and, perhaps, loyalty to his generally reliable senior operators.

Anyone suggesting that the time has come for Klopp to hand over the reins, however, has clearly not learned from the mistakes of Borussia Dortmund’s hierarchy following the German’s Bundesliga exit in 2015.

Make no mistake: building another great Liverpool team will represent a challenge like no other for the 55-year-old, though we can’t think of another coach in world football better-suited to the task at hand.

  1. From challenging for 4 trophies last season to this season. It does not take a rocket scientist to understand that this team is tired and I for one will be happy to see LFC just focusing on the Premier league. This team did not just become bad overnight and to sack Klopp will be akin to cutting off your nose to spite your face. Makes no sense. With rest and new faces, we will be good to go again next season.

  2. Klopp has done wonders with the restrictions placed under FSG ( sell to buy ) He is without doubt a quality manager. Both Liverpool and FSG with suffer if he were to leave. I have a horrible feeling that what he wants/needs won’t be provided under FSG and I think he will walk at season end.

  3. Why would any one in there right mind want to get rid of the best manager we have had for years the problem is to many want instant success . One bad season and it’s get rid of klopp. We have had bad seasons before the great SHANKS went a few seasons without a trophy get a grip of yourselves.

  4. Jurgen is not the problem! The style of play that we used to requires that we need to refresh every so often. Look the players have. After a season where we were competing for 4 🏆 s and then consequently besieged by injuries left, right and center.

  5. They should Never have allowed Sadio Manie to Leave the Club… He Was Their Best Player last Season…. That Is Their Downfall Unfortunately
