More than two weeks after the announcement of his departure from Liverpool, Jurgen Klopp’s decision is still causing so much talk. Thierry Henry answered a question about this unexpected decision-making for CBS Sports and for him it was the pressure that led the German coach to retire at the end of the season: “Pep was at Barcelona and took a year off. Klopp is at Liverpool, stops. Xavi is in Barcelona, he is stopping too. Three big clubs. It’s normally a dream job and they call it quits. It tells you a story. Pressure, everyone has a voice, social media and so on. It’s hard to be a manager and no one cares about you. You’re going to have to take care of yourself at some point. » he explained to the American media.
For the Arsenal legend, Liverpool fans must accept this decision: “I understand it’s very nice for the fans and everyone involved, the journalists, but don’t just think about yourself and think the Premier League will miss Klopp, Liverpool will miss Klopp. We know it, we know it’s true. But he missed his family, he missed his free time, he missed his reason. Good for him. When I heard the news, I said to myself: ‘Good for you.’” To replace the already historic coach of the Reds, Liverpool is thinking of Xabi Alonso.
