Klopp’s emotional address
It was a sad farewell from Jurgen Klopp, as Virgil Van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold were seen in tears at Anfield at the final whistle.
Klopp addressed the crowd, with his wife Ulla seen wiping her eyes in the stands.
He told the Liverpool fans: “I’m surprised. I thought I’d already be in pieces but I’m not.
“I’m so happy about you all, the atmosphere, the game, being a part of this family and about us, how we celebrate this day.
“It doesn’t feel like an end. It just feels like a start. Today I saw a football team play full of talent, youth, creativity, desire, greed. That’s one part of development, that’s what you need obviously.
“In these few weeks where I have had too much attention, I realised a lot of things. People say I turned them from doubters into believers.
“That’s not true. You did it. Nobody tells you to stop believing. This club is in a better moment than a long time.
“We have this wonderful stadium, training centre and you – the superpower of world football. Wow.
“We decide if we are worried or excited. We decide if we believe. We decide if we trust or don’t trust. Today I am one of you and I keep believing. I stay believing 100 per cent.
“Obviously I saw a lot of people crying and I will tonight too because I will miss people but change is good. Everything will be fine because the basics are 100 per cent there.
“You welcome the new manager like you welcomed me. You go all in from the first day. You keep believing. You push the team. I’m one of you now. I love you to bits.
“Thank you. You are the best team in the world. Thank you!”
