“I think if Klopp starts next season and gets to October with Liverpool in the same position, he will be gone,” Jordan insisted. talkSPORT.
‘Everything comes to an end, he’s been there for seven years. Eight years in October. He will have been there for a considerable period of time and for most of that time – certainly after years two and three – he has done a remarkable job and produced a remarkable team.
“But this exit comes after seasons where they have won the Premier League and seasons where they have dominated football, like last year.”

Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson has urged his side to improve on their disappointing away form
Reds stalwart Andrew Robertson attributed the disappointing season to Liverpool’s struggles on the road, insisting his side needed to quickly improve their away form before thinking about vying for trophies again.
“A point at Stamford Bridge is not the point that will define our season,” Robertson stressed after Tuesday’s deadlock.
“We struggled away from home and if we could put our finger on it, we would have solved it by now.
“From now to the end we’ve got to rectify that and next season we’re going to have to fix that if we want to compete for anything because you’ve got to pick up points along the way and that’s where we’ve let ourselves down massively this year.”
