Jurgen Klopp is the new Liverpool manager, the German has agreed a three-year deal with the Premier League club. Klopp, aged 48, took the job after former boss Brendan Rodgers was sacked on Sunday after three and a half years at the club. Klopp has been unemployed since last May when his fabulous seven-year spell at Borussia Dortmund came to an end.
Zeljko Buvac and Peter Krawietz, his former assistants at Dortmund, will also join Liverpool as part of the coaching staff. Sean O'Driscoll, Rodgers's assistant manager, has already left the club while first-team coach Gary McAllister will be offered a new position inside the organization. Klopp will be presented by Liverpool during a press conference on Friday morning.
Klopp started his managerial career at Mainz, spent seven years there before joining Dortmund in 2008. He has led Borussia to two Bundesliga crowns but last season was a disappointment as they finished seventh in the German league. Liverpool have won just four of their eleven matches this season. Their next fixture after the international break is the Premier League at Tottenham Hotspurs on October 17th.
Liverpool are 3.40 at Bet365 to finish inside the Premier League top four this season.

I am big fan of Liverpool and I am also big fan of Jurgen Klopp,so this is brilliant thing for me.I hope that this man can bring Reds back on the glory road.With him on the bench everything will be diferent.Klopp can lead this club to glory,only if they give him respective amount of money and freedom in making a decisions.

No doubt that this is a right move for Liverpool, the appointment on one of the best young managers in the game could only be a positive thing for the club.

I believe every Liverpool fan have a big expectations now and probably right so but I don't think the results will come so fast. From the other hand will be tough for Liverpool not to progress with the new manager because they've reached the bottom of their performance in the last months.

If anyone can save Liverpool I think that is Jurgen Klopp. I think that he is right man for this club because he owns energy which is key for returning clubs on winning track. I am not sure that his work will show result this season but I am sure that Liverpool have bright future with this man, they only need to believe...

Jurgen Klopp was the best choice of Liverpool. He's a fantastic manager who knows how to play good football. I think Gundogan, Reus and Hummels will join to Liverpool as soon as it possible because Klopp needs for old lads. Liverpool could be strong again, and if Klopp will get a lot of money for transfers he won't waste...

Great news for all fans of Liverpool. Jurgen Klopp is an excellent coach,but I have to say that here is very important one name Zeljko Buvac,his nickname is "brain" , great thing is that two of them will again cooperate in new team. I expect much better games in the rest of season,and to finish inside the top four..
