Jurgen Klopp will leave his role as manager of Liverpool this summer
Klopp has overseen a prolonged period of success that has resulted in the club returning to the highest echelons of European and world football.
During a reign of nearly nine years at Anfield, his impact has been huge off the pitch as well as on it.
Mark Lawrenson said:
“He is the closest to [Bill] Shankly I think they've had.
"Just the way he is with the supporters, the club, he gets the history and everything.
“He even embraces the old lads like myself, whereas in the past one or two of the former managers didn't really want us around, but he's not like that.
“He points you out to people, he will grab people over and say 'hey, this fella won five league titles' and all that kind of stuff.
"I would say the best thing about him is his man-management. Not just the players, but everybody who works there and they really would walk on water for him."
