Liverpool Keep Quadruple Dream Alive For 'Emotional' Jurgen Klopp

Liverpool remain in the hunt to send Jurgen Klopp off with a quadruple after beating Norwich 5-2 in the FA Cup on Sunday, with the manager admitting he'd have to be "made of wood" to remain untouched by the affection in which he is held. Klopp was greeted by an emotional rendition of "You'll Never Walk Alone" before kick-off and banners of thanks in the first match since the German announced his decision to leave at the end of the season.

The 56-year-old said on Friday when he made the shock announcement on his impending departure that he hoped the "best memories were still to come" despite having won the Premier League and Champions League during his time in charge.

Should Liverpool progress to the FA Cup final, Klopp's final game will be at Wembley and they will be strong favourites to progress to the quarter-finals after being paired at home to Watford or Southampton in the last 16.

"It's emotional but I have to pull myself together. I received all the messages. I'm not made of wood," said Klopp on dealing with the emotions of the past few days.

"There will be a moment at the end of the season where we will say 'goodbye' and it will be emotional, but between now and then we have a massive job to do."

Klopp's opposite number, Norwich boss David Wagner, was the best man at his wedding after the two played together at Mainz.

The pair enjoyed a warm embrace in the tunnel before kick-off, but Liverpool showed no mercy on Wagner's men despite Klopp giving the chance to some of his youngsters to shine.

James McConnell was handed his full debut in midfield and the 19-year-old set up the opening goal as his teasing delivery was headed in by Curtis Jones at the back post.
