Thanks @Livvy that was an excellent video.
And to my embarrassment I had no idea after all these years that @Bekloppt meant crazy in German.

Everything’s crazy in German.
Bloody foreigners.
And kloppen means “to hit”.

For the German speakers…
Klopp was a guest on the Podcast of the Kroos brothers (Toni and Felix). Available now
I found the video awful, 4 times too long, (red)bullshit editing and trying to paint Liverpol fans in arms against Klopp and stupid AI generated images.
Shame as the rest of the video would be strong enough without it.
Excellent that it gave me some insight into the German anti Red Bull culture and 50+1 that I was a bit of a novice.
Didnt sway me though as I have stated on here that I am not fazed at all at Klopps decision.
Jurgen Klopp defends his decision to become head of global soccer at Red Bull and says it was difficult to take a job where "everyone is happy".
Going by Klopp’s quotes, it seems that we have finished him as a coach.
Got to say I was surprised to hear about this news. I guess he wasn’t able to just sit back and put his feet up on a beach somewhere for a year.
It’s pretty disappointing and awkward, but it’s just another instance of how none of us should place anyone on too high of a pedestal.
Nobody should be placed on a pedestal, full stop.
Apparently now he wants to whore himself out to FC Paris (who are being taken over by Antonie Arnault, the LVMH heir):
ORLY, France (AP) — The Arnault family, owners of the LVMH luxury empire, plan to draw on Jurgen Klopp's expertise as part of an ambitious project to transform Paris FC into a force in French soccer.The family's takeover of the second-tier club...
I’ve spoken with Klopp several times, and he’s very, very excited about working with us," said Antoine Arnault, son of billionaire Bernard Arnault
Mario Gotze on Liverpool: “In 2016, I nearly went to a famous team in England called Liverpool.”
“The coach there was a man named Jürgen Klopp.”
“I went to his house in Liverpool. We sat down together in the living room with our wives.”
“What makes Jürgen special is that he sees Mario the person. He asked me about life in general.”
“He said something like, ‘Look, Mario, you’ll play a lot, and you’ll have fun here. I know that’s the most important thing for you. The club is amazing. Have a think about it.’”
“I also wanted to win things right away. Liverpool had just finished eighth in England, and Dortmund had come second in Germany.”
“So I went back. But I do feel that I missed out on a special journey with Jurgen.”
“I didn’t understand that he needed time to build a great team at Liverpool.”
“There was not really any need for me to play in the Champions League right away.”

Bullet dodged
Im still of the opinion that the timing of the Klopp leaving announcement is one of the reasons the season ultimately flittered away.
Injuries repeated on us again.
Saying that we fell off a bit after that Man Utd match.
Gotze, Brandt, Antony… who knows what would’ve happened.
… and the guy that went to China, Tex something or other
