Liverpool: Manager Jurgen Klopp urged Liverpool supporters not to sing his name after an impressive 4-1 victory over defending Premier League champions Leicester marked the opening of a new-look Anfield in impressive fashion.
"I'm really on the side of the players, I really am," said Klopp.
"I'm responsible for the bad performances, they're responsible for the good performances. It's quite a simple deal. "I don't like to celebrate like something special has just happened — that is what I expect from us and we have to show it. We will see how often we can show it. That's what we have to do this season, create an atmosphere, but please don't sing my name before the game is decided! Immediately the Kop started singing 'Jurgen Klopp', it's like celebrating a penalty before it is scored. I don't play!
"If somebody likes me, that's nice — I like them all. It's nice, but it's not necessary. I know it doesn't seem too smart but that's me. It's very nice, but I've heard it often enough."
