Reds fans around the world were left gobsmacked by their iconic manager’s revelation, which nigh-on stunned his players into silence.

He admitted: “The players didn’t have a lot of questions, I spoke to them all together and then a few after that.

“We have a really strong bond. Usually when a manager is in a dressing room and talks like that he got sacked.

“It isn’t like that because of the things we achieved so that is why my responsibility is so big.

“We had last year’s situation and I think a lot of managers would have got the sack and there was never any intention to do that.

“And my responsibility grows and grows, so when it is not right anymore I have to tell.”

The player’s shock was recently conveyed by Reds and England defender Trent Alexander-Arnold, who admitted: “[It was] just a complete surprise to all of us as players.

“It was one that we didn’t see coming, you never do, especially when things are going so well.

“We were flying, up and around the top of the league, we’re fighting on all four fronts at that point for every trophy we could so you’re expecting the good times to keep coming and coming and coming.

“So when he tells us the news and his decision we have got to respect it obviously.

“But it’s one of them no player wants to hear and it was one that kind of shook the dressing room for a couple of hours.

“But he told us, ‘Look we’re professionals, don’t let it get to us’.

“There will be a lot of noise around, of course, but we have got to go and do our job, try and win games and give him the best possible finish.”

Liverpool currently top the Premier League table by two points ahead of Arsenal, who could only draw with champions Manchester City on Easter Sunday.

The Reds will be back in action on Thursday, welcoming relegation-battlers Sheffield United to Anfield.
