Jamie Carragher backs Jurgen Klopp and makes Chelsea claim after Liverpool 'sacking' question

The Reds have endured a slow start to the new season, winning just two of their six Premier League games before a woeful 4-1 defeat at Napoli in the first round of games in the Champions League last week. The performance in Naples prompted some knee-jerk reaction, with one particular question in the post-match press conference about whether Klopp is worried for his future, following the sacking of Thomas Tuchel at Chelsea.

The Reds boss brushed off the query in typically blunt fashion, and former captain Carragher has backed the German to turn the club’s fortunes around, rather than be replaced by someone else.
