Jurgen Klopp was officially unveiled as the new Liverpool manager to a packed Anfield press room on Friday morning.

The 48-year-old German showed his charisma and passion for football, providing plenty of memorable quotes, not least when asked how he would describe himself after Jose Mourinho had proclaimed himself as the “Special One” when he first arrived in England.

“I am the normal one,” joked Klopp.
