Regard! Liverpool's beautiful montage that Jürgen Klopp shot went viral – Liverpool FC

Earlier this week, Jurgen Klopp was photographed alone on the Kop, the footage went viral – and it turned out he was filming for Liverpool FC TV.

Klopp attracted attention on Tuesday when he was pictured in an empty Anfield, standing alone on the Kop and wearing a red and white club scarf.

It has since emerged that the manager was taking one final photo along with all Liverpool staff involved. Drone footage showed him running out of the tunnel.

Liverpool have now released the finished footage from that day, in which Klopp is filmed entering the pitch and being greeted by the trophies he has won over the last eight and a half years.

“So this is a farewell,” says Klopp.

“I love absolutely everything about this club. I love everything about the city, I love everything about our fans, I love the team.

“After all the years we spent together, and after all the time we spent together, and after all the things we went through together, the respect grew, the love grew.

“I came as a normal guy, I'm still a normal guy, I just don't live a normal life.

“I not only feel at home, I am also at home. I love Anfield. I love Anfield when it's rocking. We really showed what working together can achieve.

“It's hard for us to say goodbye, but let's remember the good times. I will, forever.

“I will never forget all of you. And I will miss you like hell. See you around.”

The video, superbly produced by LFCTV, is four minutes and 57 seconds long and perfectly summarizes not only Klopp's time at the club, but also his impact on the city and its people, as well as the sadness at his departure.

For most people there will never be another manager like Klopp in their lives; a truly generational leader who can be ranked among the best to ever represent Liverpool.

It's only fitting that he is given a fitting farewell as Sunday is set to be an unrelentingly emotional day at Anfield.

We would like to thank the Liverpool FC media team for creating such a stunning montage in memory of the boss.
