Gary Neville trolls Jamie Carragher after Jurgen Klopp decides to leave Liverpool.
Gary Neville has hit out at Jamie Carragher after Jurgen Klopp decided to leave Liverpool.Klopp announced his surprise decision to step down as Liverpool manager on Friday (26 January) after nine years in charge. The German revealed he was “tired” after almost a decade of intense competition at the top level.
His illustrious career brought glory to Anfield, where he won the club’s first Premier League title, the Champions League and other major honours, while forging a special relationship with the Kop. This news left Liverpool fans confused. Neville shared a photo with a black eye of him and the former centre-back holding hands and smiling.
“Klopp is leaving,” he gleefully wrote, accompanied by a thumbs-up emoji.Devastated Carragher wrote in The Telegraph: โWhen I heard [the news] I was heartbroken. I thought it was a prank or a cruel joke. This is the highest measure of the director class.
“When opposing teams celebrate a move, it shows how respected and feared the coach is.”He added: โKlopp transformed lives and recreated the nights of European glory synonymous with Anfield. The rest of the season will be very exciting.โRather than an immediate collapse, my intuition is that the team and the club will pursue their goals in a wave of enthusiasm. The atmosphere at Anfield was electric during the title game. Can you imagine what it’s like now?
Liverpool failed to finish in the top five in all but one season before Klopp took over in 2015. A unique, action-packed gameplay turns players into world beaters by switching sides.They were soon able to compete with Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City for more Premier League titles, winning one and reaching three Champions League finals.
He will leave Anfield after leading the club back to fourth place and challenging for the league title after a brief spell last season. But a 12-month overhaul and the cost of nearly 500 games at Liverpool means even the rock’n’roll-loving German needs some time off.
