The Klopp project needs a trophy. Now

Jurgen Klopp took two minutes of his first press conference as Liverpool manager to play down the urgent demand for silverware, but he could not help setting himself a target.

“It’s not so important what people think when you come in, it is more important what they think when you leave,” Klopp told the country’s media in October 2015. “I don’t want to say we have to wait 20 years. If we sit here in four years, I think we win one title.”
