2025-12-16 23:52:43 / SPORT
Jurgen Klopp, through a video on social media, has chosen what he considers to be the Mount Rushmore (where 4 former US presidents are carved) of coaches, with a selection that is notable for not hesitating to include one of his great rivals.
"This is my Mount Rushmore for football coaches and right now it's really hard to pick four, but I'll try."
Johan Cruyff, the most influential football coach I've ever heard of. The way he saw football, the way he understood it, is incomparable to anyone else.
"Pep Guardiola, you can say exactly the same thing about him and I've faced him and I know how difficult it is," said the German coach, recalling the rivalry that lasted almost a decade between them, in Germany and England. Klopp has in fact recorded 11 wins against Guardiola's teams, compared to 10 for the Spaniard.
"Now it gets a bit more difficult. Let's go with the most successful, a person I also liked, Sir Alex Ferguson. And then I can hardly choose. Carlo Ancelotti is in my mind, obviously. Bill Shankly, Bob Paisley, I've heard so much about them, but I've never seen them. But, yes, I want to see Bill Shankly on Mount Rushmore," was Klopp's final choice.
