“Robert Lewandowski is the best player I have ever managed”_____ Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp

The Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has named Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski as the best player he’s ever managed.

Recall that Lewandowski was signed by Klopp at Borussia Dortmund in 2010.  During their time together at the club, they won two Bundesliga titles and reached the Champions League final in 2013.

Moreso, the Poland international went on to join Bayern Munich in 2014 and has established himself as one of the world’s best strikers with 284 goals in 323 appearances.

However, when asked to name the best player he’s ever managed, Klopp told Sport Bild:

“Robert Lewandowski. ‘It actually won’t be fair to say that about any other player except Lewy.

“What he has made out of his potential, how he pushed himself to become the player he is today, that’s extraordinary. ‘If every player has a development similar to Lewandowski, when I first saw him at Lech Poznan, then the football world would be completely crazy.

‘‘All players would win all their duels, the full-backs would complete all their crosses, the midfielders would be strong in one against ones, the wingers would tackle and play precise long balls.”

‘’Lewandowski made every step he had to make to become the goal machine he is today. ‘He knows exactly what to do in every situation. He’s an absolute machine.

‘‘I would like to thank him and all the other players who made it look as if I’m a very good coach.’’

No doubt, Klopp has offered the highest praise to the 32-year-old.
