Head coach Jürgen Klopp takes responsibility for the fact that the atmosphere in the Liverpool FC football team employing Dominik Szoboszlai is not such that the players can give their best.
The German coach, who is leaving at the end of the season, said on Friday that Liverpool should be their old self again, although he does not think it is likely that they will win the Premier League.
Szoboszlai’s could only win one of their last four league matches – for example, they lost 2-0 at home to city rivals Everton on Wednesday – but they are only three points behind Arsenal, four rounds before the end of the season. Between the two teams, even Manchester City is on the table, and the defending champions have played one game less than the London and Liverpool teams.

Klopp’s team was eliminated from the Europa League and the FA Cup in the quarter-finals, won the League Cup, and will host West Ham United in the championship on Saturday.
“I am responsible for the atmosphere. We have incredible players and it’s my job to create an atmosphere where they can perform at their best and I’ve failed in that.” he stated.
He added: he does everything to take the burden off his players. He noted: he didn’t see what they wanted to play against Everton at all, so they should try to look more like their former selves in the remaining matches of the season.
The German manager stated that he is sure that City and Arsenal already see the fight for the title as a two-team race, and he himself does not expect that their rivals will lose two matches in the following rounds. If it does happen, they will need to be right there on their opponents’ heels, and to do so they will need to beat West Ham outright.
According to consistent press reports, Arne Slot, the Dutch manager of Feyenoord, will succeed Klopp as Liverpool’s head coach, the two clubs have already started negotiations.

It seems more and more likely that the Feyenoord coach will succeed Klopp.
“I heard that he is a good person and a good coach. If he is the solution, if he is the right person, then I am more than happy” – said the German specialist, who says that Sloter has the “best job in the world” at Liverpool.
“The best job in the world, the best club in the world, because the team is great and the people are fantastic” he explained. He noted: it seems that Slot will not have to take over the team at the top, which means there will still be room for improvement.
