'Camera in their face': Jurgen Klopp gives touching speech about the biggest challenge in footballers' lives

After the recent Liverpool struggles, Jurgen Klopp gave a heartwarming speech about the biggest challenge in human life and shared about the only difference for the footballers.

Klopp said: "That's a challenge. Always after the game, emotions settle step by step. Either the good ones - you are not flying anymore a few days later if you won a game 4-0 - and the other way round, you should not be down anymore if you lost the game or missed the target."

"But then, the reality check is always the next situation in training. Getting the confidence back, getting the flow back is, for all human beings, the biggest challenge in our lives. On the good days, we are all great. We had lots of days that were not that great."

"The only difference with footballers is they constantly have a camera in their face while they are going through difficult spells. We will give it a try, to try again. It's tricky but you don't do it by putting your finger into it all the time and saying, 'That's not good enough... that's not good enough.' You just try to offer things where things can develop naturally again."

"That's what we tried this week so far and will do until the end, giving the boys the necessary information as well. In the end, you only can enjoy football when you win and that means you have to make sure that we defend [against] them properly and then for the rest we have to build on that."

In their last 7 matches in all competitions, Klopp's team lost 3 games, won 2 and had 2 draws.
