Liverpool are in danger of being knocked out of the Premier League Top 4.
Last week, Klopp also received shocking news when his mother passed away in his hometown. The Kop coach cannot return to Germany to suffer the disease. This was the most difficult time of his life.
Faced with many unfortunate news, Klopp still receives support from Liverpool fans.
Outside the Anfield gate, the words "Jurgen Klopp, YWNA" were hung up by fans as encouragement for the team's captain.
Despite being touched by the affection of fans, Klopp still made very strong statements before the big match against Leipzig.
"I have heard a lot about Liverpool and my mother's passing. It is undeniable that people's affection for me is very great, however, I don't think I really need that at the moment.
There are many rumors that I will give up, even give up Liverpool, but the opposite is true. I don't even need to rest at this stage.
Liverpool have gone through a difficult journey over the past 3 weeks. The way we deal with it is to act like a family among all members of the club.
I am 53 years old this year, have been involved in football for 30 years and have been a coaching career for 20 years. I know how to determine everything.
I can hide my private things deep inside but not show them out, especially in matches. There is nothing out there that can affect me so there is no need to worry.
The weather has not been suitable recently, so my hair is gray and my beard is quite long. In addition, I rarely sleep this time so my eyes are dark but everything is fine.
I am still full of energy to be able to continue working. What is happening is sometimes an interesting challenge. No one will show us how to overcome this stage effectively. So please let Liverpool arrange everything themselves, even though it is not easy.
All I have left is to fight with all my might and learn from day-to-day experiences. What happened this season is different from previous seasons, we have to improve to adapt to the situation ourselves.
We have learned many things. There are many people who are not satisfied with the current results and I will take responsibility for everything.
Many people only demand the final result and are not interested in the process of achieving it. We are not like that, Liverpool still play their own football. The players are ready at their best and will bring the best performance," Klopp shared.
The match between Leipzig and Liverpool in the first leg of the 1/8 Champions League will take place at 3:00 a.m. on February 17 (Vietnam time), live on K+.
