Jurgen Klopp's first Liverpool team now - from Pogba's 'toughest opponent' to rival coach

Jurgen Klopp introduced himself to English football back in October 2015 when he took his new Liverpool side to White Hart Lane.

The Reds, hardly recognisable from the team we see now, battled to a goalless draw with Tottenham as the Anfield project begun. Klopp would inherit a squad from Brendan Rodgers but wasted no time in putting his own stamp on things when the opportunity came about. Of those who started in north London, only James Milner and Divock Origi remain at the club.

The pair have been integral to Liverpool's success under Klopp, which includes triumphs in the Premier League and the Champions League. Around them the club have signed quality names, owing largely to shrewd business in the transfer market. Of those that left Liverpool, few, if any, have gone on to better things.
