I will have the first and last words on players' transfers insists Jurgen Klopp- New Liverpool Boss

Liverpool new coach, Jurgen Klopp has been unveiled to the British media and fans alike. The German who takes over from Rogers has generated massive public interest never seen since the arrival of Jose Mourinho to Chelsea in 2004.
When compared to the Chelsea manager, Klopp insisted he is the "normal one" and that he will have the first and last word on players transfer. Klopp, who has signed a three-year contract worth £21million, described the decision to appoint him as 'the biggest honour' in his career despite admitting that the club is currently not in its best shape.



Klopp admitted waking up on Friday morning as Liverpool manager felt surreal, but he is now focused on getting down to business on the training field ahead of his first game in charge against Tottenham at White Hart Lane a week on Saturday. 
'When I left Dortmund I said "it’s not important what people say when you come in; it’s what they think when you leave". Now I say: Please give us time to work, please be patient. Today could be a very special day.


Klopp, who said he believes in the potential of the current Liverpool squad, ended his landmark first press conference by refusing to draw comparisons between himself and the many illustrious names he follows into the Anfield hotseat. 
'I don’t compare myself with these geniuses within the history of Liverpool. It’s cool that you are looking forward to the work for the next few months and years.
