I just don't think Klopp would ever manager a club like Chelsea. He came to Liverpool because he knew we were a good cultural fit for him. Of course, if he did manage Chelsea he would do a great job, like he would anywhere, but he would never be able to quite feel at home.
That's a part of the reason why it's so important for us to support him when he makes gestures to us like on Sunday. We need to show him that he made the right decision to come to us. That we are the club he thinks we are - that we know we are. I actually can't think of a more tragic outcome for Liverpool than losing a manager like Klopp - a soulmate for our club, because we weren't able to stay true to the sense of identity I think we all subscribe to and believe in.
Klopp will win this, easily. First time it may seem cringey, but in a few months it will be a routine. In a few years, I think all teams will be doing it.
After all, it's a very small effort to improve the atmosphere.
So, it could be a historical game.
This is going to be worse than when they all tried to outdo each other by proclaiming their undying love for Rafael. We had grown men dressed as archdeacon's marching down the road carrying a framed picture of the fat one. God knows what these lunatics are going to do to Klopp.

Klopp’s Kop gesture was fine by me!
I’ve got no problem whatsoever with what Jurgen Klopp did at the end of Sunday’s game, getting his players together and heading with them towards the Kop end.
Anyone who thinks he was over celebrating a point against West Brom has, I think, read it wrong.
It was simply the new manager’s way of connecting, maybe reconnecting, his team with the Liverpool fans and saying thank you to them.
Clearly there had been plenty going on in the dugout during the game and Jurgen was wound up.
But then we have (same edition) The Echo's Andy Kelly in the middle of a sickening editorial style homage to Klopp and the dance of the seven veils (and where he has the temerity to refer to the Holy Trinity) :
"Ray Hughes, treasurer of the Liverpool Official Supporters Club perhaps put it best on social media later...
"I don't think Ive ever left Anfield feeling so happy after a draw, all thanks to the Klopp induced celebrations....what an amazing manager."
Those who criticize Klopp for his actions yesterday, LFC fans or not, should really be ashamed because what they are criticising is human decency.
