Klopp says previous achievements have kept in a job during a season of 13 managerial departures in the Premier League.
JURGEN KLOPP SAYS he is not afraid of the sack after a spate of Premier League casualties but admits struggling Liverpool must deliver as he prepares his team to face managerless Chelsea.“I think the elephant in the room is probably why I am still sitting here in this crazy world,” Klopp said at his pre-match press conference on Monday. “Last man standing.”
But he said he was not fearful over the future, even though his team, eighth in the table, face an uphill task to qualify for next season’s Champions League. Klopp takes his team to Stamford Bridge on Tuesday after the weekend sacking of Graham Potter, hours after Leicester parted ways with Brendan Rodgers. Antonio Conte left Tottenham “by mutual agreement” last week.
