Jurgen Klopp has expressed his opinion on Liverpool’s new coach. The Ex-Liverpool manager who helped restore the club to his glory days has expressed his opinion about the club’s new coach. The German is full of praise and appreciation for the new coach’s newly implemented system. This system was proven effective in Liverpool’s first game, as they overcame the tricky Ipswich side. The Reds won 2-0, scoring the two goals. Klopp praised the team on the thrilling second-half display.
Jurgen Klopp has been what many may consider the hero of the club. The German helped lift the club, winning the Champions League, and Premier League after 30 years, and a couple of domestic league cups.
Jurgen Klopp on Arne Slot

During an interview with ESPN Netherlands, Klopp said: “Arne, yeah. Really good coach. I was really happy when I heard that Liverpool was going for Arne Slot. I wasn’t involved in anything, it should not be like that, and I’m not this kind of guy in the background, still having some strings and stuff. Like I don’t want that. The club is too big, too good. [The] People are too good.
“A lot of things changed since we left. But the only concern for me was, will they get a good coach? Liverpool was early and Liverpool got a top, top, top solution in Arne Slot.”
Jurgen Klopp Spoke About Slot’s Pattern
He added: “I like his football a lot [how he] played it with, with [Feyenoord], so that’s good. I saw the Sevilla game, and the preseason friendly at Anfield — big parts of it were really good. And the league game [against Ipswich], the second half was good.
“But it’s not important that I like it, you can see he is a very good coach, and the team, I know now better than most, is a really good squad, is a really good team. So it’ll work out well.”
Klopp on his Relationship with Slot
Klopp and Slot had conversed during the handover period months back, and since they’ve been keeping in touch with each other. With Liverpool’s pre-season friendlies and the Ipswich game, he believes Slot’s system of games is already being established among the players.
“We spoke one or two times [at the start]. I think we texted a few more times. But there is nothing I can tell him what he couldn’t know himself,” Klopp said. “Right now from my side, just to give positive feedback in the beginning because we are all human beings and he worked his socks off.
“I know that because the tour is super intense in a year when you have Euros and Copa, you don’t have the team together, but they come, you have one week until the first matchday and stuff like that. So I think he had a similar situation, but the same situation? Not.
“When I saw the games, that’s why I watched it, not to think, oh, how does it look? The work he did was obvious, the ideas obvious. And that’s the best you can say about the coach.”
Jurgen Klopp on Relationship with His Former Players
The German has also been keeping in touch with some of the players, a notable one he spoke about was Virgil Van Dijk.
“Unbelievable player,” Klopp said of Van Dijk. “Unbelievable player. Unbelievable guy. So I miss them. I don’t miss the job, [but] I miss all the people there. We can, we can see each other whenever we want in the future.”
Klopp also spoke of Van Dijk’s contract which is almost winding up, he said: “I have no idea what he, what they will do,” the former coach said. “And it’s all their own decision. They are grown-ups. They will do the right stuff.”
Klopp is on his Break from the Game
“I didn’t say I can go again,” he said. “It’s just, I’m in a good mood. Yeah. Life is different if we are not responsible for these kind of things, so I really enjoy that.”
“I enjoy still watching football and especially Salzburg right now because, [manager] Pep [Lijnders] is super important to me so I like watching it and like to see the progress. I saw Liverpool playing as well [which] was really good. These are the things I watched, but besides that, it was a lot of Olympics and stuff like that.”
“Brilliant summer so far. You have to organise the time off as well, because a lot of people want to meet you and stuff like that. So we had to calm down a little bit, but we are fine. We have spent now three proper weeks with the grandkids and the kids together. It was beautiful.”
