Chelsea had just played a game last night when Mauricio Pochettino was asked about Jurgen Klopp.
Normally we hate this – we want the coach to speak about the game that’s just been played or is just about to be played. But in this case, Klopp’s departure is so massive and Pochettino’s tribute was so heartfelt that it did feel like it deserved some airtime ahead of a 0-0 draw in the FA Cup.
Pochettino spoke very openly and genuinely about his sacking from Spurs and how Klopp had helped him.
You can see the coach speaking in the clip embedded here:
“When we were sacked from Tottenham, the first message was from him.” 🤝
Pochettino’s beautiful tribute to Jurgen Klopp 👏
