"Ranked at no.2 in FourFourTwo's list of the best Premier League managers ever, Klopp had a transformative effect on the Reds, leading them to end their 30-year wait for a league title as well as taking them to three Champions League finals (with one win). The iconic German manager, also ex of Borussia Dortmund, stepped away from his role at Anfield last year and subsequently took on the job of Head of Global Soccer at Red Bull."
"Prunea also took aim at Klopp's histrionics, saying: "I never liked him. All that circus you'd say he was chewing bricks with his teeth." The 57-year-old former Romania goalkeeper has always been outspoken: he received a nine-month ban from the Romanian FA for 'comments made about senior officials in the Romanian league'. Prunea maintained he had actually been banned for having taken part in a protest against clubs not paying player wages, and the ban was quickly overturned."
Florin Prunea, a UEFA delegate and former Romania goalkeeper, expressed strong dislike for Jurgen Klopp and criticized Klopp's move to Red Bull Salzburg as getting "money for nothing." Prunea mocked Klopp's touchline theatrics, saying he "was chewing bricks with his teeth." Jurgen Klopp transformed Liverpool, ending a 30-year league title drought and reaching three Champions League finals with one win, before leaving to become Head of Global Soccer at Red Bull. Prunea previously faced a nine-month ban from the Romanian FA over comments about officials, which he says related to protesting unpaid player wages, and the ban was quickly overturned.
