Jurgen Klopp has a bit of a tendency to sell himself short when asked to compare his ability to that of ‘the best’ Pep Guardiola.
There’s nothing wrong at all with the German’s humility, of course. If anything, fans and commentators alike rather admire it.
The 56-year-old told reporters present at his pre-match presser the following, courtesy of Empire of the Kop’s X account
Klopp on Guardiola (cont’d): “I knew 3,000 footballers better than me but I still loved the game so I have no problem with that.
He made me a better manager. I know I am quite good at what I do. I know I am not bad but he is the best.” #LFC
