Despite the high expectation, it doesn’t bother the team manager, Jurgen Klopp. Moreover, he insisted that the high expectation isn’t a pressure at all.
“I expect a lot from myself but there is no pressure. We want to win each game and if we don’t win it then we want to win the next one,” Klopp said cited by AS English.
Not only talking about the pressure, but Klopp also emphasized that he won’t be influenced by the critic from the public on him or Liverpool.
“How people look at me and what people think about me – I have nothing to do with that because I have no influence on it. As long as we win football games, everybody thinks – even if they don’t like me – ‘He’s a good manager’,” the 51-year-old man continued.
“And when we lose football games, the people who don’t like me and the people who like me say, ‘Maybe he’s not the right manager anymore’. That’s how it is. If you know that before, how can it put pressure on your shoulders? I really don’t understand that,” he concluded.”
