It didn't take long for Liverpool to name the successor to Brendan Rodgers, and Jurgen Klopp is already a hit with Liverpool fans.
While his reputation as a winner, taking Borussia Dortmund to the title and a Champions League final, is clearly largely responsible for that, his charisma is also something that fans have been looking forward to experiencing up close and personal.
A few of them have already had a chance to do that, as the new manager was spotted out having a drink in a pub last night, wearing his trademark hat, and was happy to pose for pictures with fans of the club.

He obviously wasn't having too many drinks, as he was up early this morning to head along and catch the U18s game, keeping an eye on young talents that he might be giving a chance to in the coming weeks and months.

Of course, the fact that he's planning on bringing some excitement on the pitch will only serve to further his reputation too.
