Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp explains why he will always be a 'tracksuit manager' and hails Pep Guardiola

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has explained he will always be a 'tracksuit manager'. The German choosing to wear a club tracksuit with baseball cap. He told the Guardian: "I was a player and the next day I was the manager. In my locker room was the tracksuit of the guy who had the job two days before. It didn't even fit me. I was just focused on the game. I never thought about how I look." Klopp also said there was a brief time he tried to smarten up at Borussia Dortmund. "I know it's not too cool because we are working in public, but then when I came to Borussia Dortmund I thought: 'Maybe I have to change', he added. I went for a while wearing jeans and a shirt. But I just didn't feel comfortable. But that doesn't mean it's bad for you." The Liverpool boss has hailed Manchester City rival, Pep Guardiola, as the 'best dressed' boss. "I think the best-dressed manager is Pep Guardiola," he said. "Everything he wears looks exactly right for him. He doesn't wear a suit, just casual stuff. Be yourself as a coach. If you want to look great, then wonderful. I'm just not made for this. "It's important you do what is right for you because whatever role model you have, you can never do the same things. I like when you see the soul or character of the coach in the team. "Guardiola again: you see a team and think: : "Wow, that's either Guardiola or somebody who worked with him." But you can never be exactly the same. But don't worry: you can be world champion in a suit or a tracksuit. You just have to be comfortable," he concluded. Source: Daily Mail  Join us on Telegram!
