He might have been left to attend throughout a irritating run of kind, however Liverpool’s 2-0 victory over Everton was the 250th of Jurgen Klopp‘s reign.
Objectives from Mohamed Salah and Cody Gakpo have been sufficient to seal a win within the Merseyside derby, ending a run of 4 video games with out victory within the Premier League.
It was a much-needed end result for the Reds as they endure a tough marketing campaign, shifting them one place as much as ninth, three factors behind sixth-placed Brighton and 9 away from the highest 4.
These are little victories for Liverpool at this stage, however Klopp will likely be hoping they will work in the direction of a return to the success he has loved all through his time in cost.
If seven trophies and 4 runners-up medals weren’t proof sufficient of that, Opta highlighted the German’s excellent file as his facet recorded a landmark win.

Victory over Everton was the 250th of Klopp’s reign at Liverpool in all competitions, reaching that milestone quicker than another supervisor within the membership’s historical past (414 video games).
Actually, solely three others have performed so, these being Bob Paisley (in 448 video games), Invoice Shankly (472 video games) and Tom Watson (539 video games).
It needs to be famous that Opta statistics depend wins and losses by way of penalty shootouts as attracts, with LFCHistory information crediting Klopp with 256 wins in his 414 video games.
His win ratio of 61.84 p.c is greater than another supervisor in Liverpool historical past other than the membership’s second-ever boss, John McKenna (69.44%), who solely took cost of 36 video games.
Unsurprisingly, Paisley (535), Shankly (783) and Watson (742) are the one others to take cost of 400 or extra video games.
At his present price, Klopp can be heading in the right direction for 484 wins if he have been to supervise as many video games as Shankly, which might be 77 greater than the legendary Scot loved in his storied tenure (407).
Klopp is contracted to the membership till 2026, with it unlikely that he stays past that time – and due to this fact, it’s unlikely that any Liverpool supervisor will ever take cost of extra video games than Shankly.
