Swansea boss Monk: Klopp must manage Liverpool expectations

Published on: 29 November 2015

Swansea City boss Garry Monk sees Jurgen Klopp establishing Liverpool as title contenders.

Monk has told Klopp he will soon have to handle the same weight of expectation which eventually wore down close friend Brendan Rodgers.

“The expectation will be that Liverpool will be title contenders," said Monk.

“Jurgen has said it himself, they will need time to get to that point – but, whenever Liverpool appoint a manager, the expectation is for them to be challenging for trophies.

“That is the way the club perceives itself. It is difficult to deal with that at any level, but at that level it's even more so.

“Every manager at that level is under pressure to try to win the league and win in Europe.

“But he has already done that with Dortmund. He has got a proven track record in Europe and in the top European leagues.

“The experience he has shows he's a very good manager and I'm sure he will bring all of that with him and try to give that to Liverpool."
