Jurgen Klopp<\/strong><\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jurgen Klopp has said he is \u201cnot afraid\u201d of being sacked by Liverpool amid the club\u2019s disappointing season and the mass exodus of Premier League managers.<\/p>\n
The Merseyside club slipped to eighth in the Premier League after suffering their third consecutive defeat with a 4-1 hammering against Manchester City on Saturday. Klopp\u2019s side also exited the Champions League at the hands of holders Real Madrid in the round-of-16 in March.<\/p>\n
Following the departures of Tottenham Hotspur boss Antonio Conte, Graham Potter at Chelsea and Brendan Rodgers at Leicester City, Klopp said there is \u201cno need for being afraid\u201d of being removed from his post, but acknowledged his side have fallen below their standards this season.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m aware of the fact that I am sitting here because of the past, not because of what we did this season,\u201d he told a news conference on Monday. \u201cWe have smart owners \u2014 they know about the situation. If this was my first season, it would be slightly different.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not afraid [of the sack], no. There\u2019s no need for being afraid, I need to deliver. I am not here as a mural on house walls, I am here to deliver.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am fully in \u2014 but we have to sort this. We cannot just continue playing how we do from time to time. I am really disappointed about us that we do this but it happens. We have to find a way out.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat can I say about that [the sackings]? The elephant in the room is probably why am I still sitting here in this crazy world? Last man standing.\u201d<\/p>\n
The departures of Potter, Conte and Rodgers meant a record 12 managers have been sacked in England\u2019s top-flight this season.<\/p>\n
Klopp said the number of manager dismissals is \u201cawful,\u201d but added that it is \u201cpart of the business.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI think both clubs are not in the spots where they expect to be,\u201d he said. \u201cI can not really say a lot more about it. Let\u2019s say I know them well, I respect them a lot. I like both.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I met them they were really really good people and fantastic managers both of them. But still things can go the wrong way and then decision-makers at the club think they have to change and they change.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe all accept that part of the business and that\u2019s it pretty much. But that\u2019s it, its a strange week I would say.\u201d<\/p>\n
Liverpool face managerless Chelsea today before hosting league leaders Arsenal on Sunday.<\/p>\n
