‘There are expectations and if you don’t reach them you have to accept the decisions’
“I cannot really explain that, to be honest. I am aware of the fact I am sitting here because of the past, not because of what we did this season. If it was my first season it would be slightly different. Yes, we have smart owners who know about the situation, but to be 100 per cent you had better ask them yourselves why that is the case.
“I am not afraid, but I don’t think that Graham was afraid. There is no need for being afraid. I am here to deliver. I am not here as a talisman or for murals on the walls of a house. I am here to deliver. I know as well I am still here for what happened in the last few years. I don’t like the fact and pretty much I have to rely on that. Is it right or not? We will see that in the future, but I am fully in, there is no doubt about it, but we have to sort it.
Klopp believes the financial consequences of relegation or missing out on Champions League qualification have prompted so many sackings this season. Underachievement is another factor, and Klopp admits his team fall into that category. “Twelve in the Premier League this season is actually an awful number, but I think you always have these years when it happens more than others,” he said.
“Some clubs are underachieving this year and we do. When you are in a relegation battle we all know how much it means from a financial point of view, but you could say the same about being in the Champions League and not being in the Champions League. There are expectations out there, rightly so, and if you don’t reach them you have to accept the decisions.” – Guardian
