Go on, try not to smile
That's right, it's another funny story about Jurgen Klopp.
The Liverpool boss has been a brilliant addition to the Premier League ever since he first joined the Reds in October 2015, and his antics have won him plenty of friends - even among the club's rivals.
Love or hate Liverpool, Klopp seems to be a manager that you would want to play for, and a story about his first Christmas party with the club will only strengthen that belief.
It is quite simply brilliant.
Because while things have gone pretty well for Liverpool this season, they weren't quite as smooth in the German's first campaign at the club.
And the mood was worse when, on the day of the Reds' Christmas party, they crumbled to a miserable 3-0 away defeat to Watford.
It was one of their worst performances of the season, but Klopp was still determined to keep morale up at the Christmas party, and as reported by Oliver Kay of The Times, he REFUSED to let any player leave the bash until, at least, 1am.
Klopp said:
“We are all disappointed, but the game has gone now.
“Right now, this is our priority. I don’t mind whether you drink, but no one leaves here before 1am.
“Whatever we do together, we do as well as we can – and tonight that means we party.”
What a man. What a boss!
