Liverpool boss Klopp: I've never considered myself a great coach

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says he never considered himself a "great coach".

Klopp will step down as manager at Liverpool this summer.

He said: “I never considered myself a great coach. Never, never in my life.

"I'm still surprised that people see me like this. The main thing is that the Liverpool fans are happy with us, and that's the only thing that matters. I don't want my tombstone to say, 'Here's one of the most successful coaches on the planet'.

"No, it's not for me. I want to be remembered as a person who helped people in life. "
