“Am I the only one who sees that Pep's right eyelid is kinda drooping, like it's a neuro disease or something.

Jurgen Klopp left Liverpool at the end of last season after announcing about a year ago that he didn't have the energy required to continue at Liverpool.

Pep has a contract till 2027 but could be leaving the English champions at the end of the season after a difficult season on and off the pitch.
