Jurgen Klopp signed a new six-year contract with Liverpool on Friday, providing a major boost to supporters.
The German is set to remain with the club until at least 2022, with his assistants Zeljko Buvac and Peter Krawietz also signing similar deals.
Klopp led Liverpool to two cup finals in 2015/16, and can hope to seal success on Merseyside as he enters his first full campaign as Reds manager.
Here’s how supporters react to news of Klopp’s new deal on social media and our forums.
So that was VERY quick… Klopp signs new SIX YEAR deal. Stays until 2022. In theory, he’ll be at LFC same period of time he was in Dortmund.

Nice sign off line on Klopp's quotes to club site: "By being together at all times, we will be stronger, better and our successes sweeter.”

Big statement from the club giving him 6 years. and there no way Klopp is signing that contract unless he's happy with the plans FSG have ?.

The longer the manager's contract, the longer the resistance to termination and an even greater reluctance to resign.#wetblanketalert
