Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson has praised his team manager Jürgen Klopp after the Reds’ first championship triumph in 30 years. “From the first day he came to Melwood, what he did was incredible,” said the BBC international, “I can’t say enough how much he has done for this club since he’s here. “

Henderson particularly appreciates Klopp’s handling of defeats. “When you win, he’s on the dance floor and partying, but to be honest, when we lose, the way he deals with it is incredible,” he said.
He had always had the feeling that Klopp “had the belief in the team that we would come back stronger after every final that we might not have won,” said the 30-year-old. In 2018, the Reds lost the Champions League final, a year later they won the title in the premier class. “Ultimately, we all follow the coach. Hopefully he’ll be here a long time,” he said.
