Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp has received much praise for his comments regarding their encounter with Chelsea in the Super Cup which is slated for 14 August.
Super Cup is an annual UEFA showpiece where the winners of the Champions League clash with the winners of the Europa League. The two English clubs will battle for the title in Istanbul in a match that will be officiated by a female referee, Stephanie Frappart.
Liverpool are the favorites since they were the Champions League titlists and the runners-up in the Premier League. But Klopp refused to write down Chelsea, believing that those who will be ready on that day will win.
The German’s comment attracted the attention of football fans, who have applauded his attitude and mentality. Klopp never Underestimate his opponents or give room for complacency.
Here were some of the reactions;
Klopp is such a reasonable coach, i like him!

One thing I love about Klopp is that he never gives room for complacency, I wish him good luck as well, but after that match.

Liverpool have a history of struggling after coming close to title, 2013-14 look at 2014-15, 1990-91 look at 1991-92 and 07-08 look at 08-09 ang 00-01 look at 02-03 Almost five times and Klopp knows he is determined to avoid that curse. Klopp knows this toooo!
