Liverpool coach who was roundly mocked leaves after five years with Jurgen Klopp message

Liverpool's specialist throw-in coach Thomas Gronnemark has revealed he will be leaving the club at the end of the season.

Gronnemark first joined Liverpool back in 2018 after manager Jurgen Klopp found his team was often losing possession from their own throw-ins. And while the decision to bring in Gronnemark was ridiculed at the time by some pundits, it ultimately proved to be a successful one with Liverpool winning the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup during his time at Anfield.

Former Liverpool defender Steve Nicol and ex-Everton striker Andy Gray were among those who criticised the appointment of Gronnemark. Nicol branded it "absolute nonsense", while Gray mocked the idea of a throw-in coach altogether.
