Jurgen Klopp discovers Liverpool sack fate after addressing "elephant in the room"

Jurgen Klopp's job as Liverpool manager remains safe, despite the German joking that his unquestioned presence at the club in light of recent sackings elsewhere is the "elephant in the room".

Klopp made the comment as he reacted to Chelsea's decision to sack Graham Potter and Leicester's mutual agreement to part ways with Brendan Rodgers. Liverpool have endured a dreadful season themselves and currently sit eighth in the Premier League.

They are eight points adrift of Tottenham, who occupy the final top four spot, with their future participation in the Champions League now on the line. The awful campaign has unsurprisingly led to criticism aimed at Klopp for team selection and tactics.
