Jurgen Klopp’s take on the coronavirus is just one more reason to love him
Jürgen Klopp has a lot on his plate right now, steering Liverpool FC into the home strait of the race to the Premiership title – something that has eluded them so far.
But when he was asked about coronavirus, he found the time to give this comprehensive answer.
“It’s not important what famous people say… My opinion about corona, it's not important."

If everybody with no expert knowledge kept their mouths shut, the world would be a pleasanter place, the internet would be 95 per cent quieter and we’d have a lot less to write about, but it’s still a refreshing change.
Here’s what other people thought of his response.

It would be a great improvement if TV current affairs shows took Juergen Klopp’s advice and didn’t book people to speak about things they have no knowledge about, merely an uninformed opinion https://t.co/Tjvl9Q85a3
