Liverpool Forward Reveals He Disliked Jurgen Klopp

Liverpool forward, Sadio Mane has disclosed that he first had difficult times with manager, Jurgen Klopp because he talks too much.

The Senegalese international, who is expected to be in the starting line when Liverpool visit Manchester United at Old Trafford today (Sunday), told Liverpool Echo, that Klopp’s arrival to the club was something he found difficult to accept at first.

He revealed that despite Klopp being funny, he doesn’t give room for errors. He was talking too much and I said, ‘Wow, this is going to be tough for me because I’m a little bit quiet.’

“ Klopp is a really nice guy. Everybody loves him and that is more important, to be honest [than all the talking].

“He is a bit of a funny guy but at the same time he is a serious guy.

“Usually when I am talking to him off the pitch it is about personal things. Things about lifestyle and life — and that is important to me. I think I have somebody I can confide in.”
