The key data as Jurgen Klopp leaves Liverpool with impressive statistical record

Jurgen Klopp will bring the curtain down on one of Liverpool’s most successful managerial reigns against Wolves at Anfield on Sunday.

The German has won eight major honours including the Premier League and Champions League with the club and here the PA news agency takes a statistical look at his time in charge.

Win record

He has won more than 60 per cent of his 490 games in charge – with one to come – and provided Liverpool’s greatest Premier League performances since the competition’s rebranding.

They won the 2019-20 title with 99 points, just one fewer than Manchester City’s record 100 two years earlier, while their 97 as runners-up in 2018-19 is the most for any team who did not finish as champions.

He is one of only seven managers to win over 200 games in the Premier League, with his record currently standing at 208 out of 333 games. The names above him on that list are Sir Alex Ferguson, with a record 528, Arsene Wenger (475), David Moyes (269), Harry Redknapp (236), Pep Guardiola (224) and Jose Mourinho (217).

Klopp will finish with 491 games in charge in all competitions and will narrowly miss out on 300 wins, with Aston Villa substitute Jhon Duran’s late brace in midweek keeping him on 298 and adding a 109th draw to go with 83 losses.

Victory over Tottenham in Madrid, following a spectacular semi-final fightback against Barcelona, brought his first trophy with the club and the following season saw Liverpool win the UEFA Super Cup, the Club World Cup and then the Premier League.

A domestic cup double in 2021-22, winning both finals in penalty shoot-outs against Chelsea, allowed them to also add the 2022 Community Shield.

A second Carabao Cup followed this season but defeat to Atalanta prevented Klopp from adding an eighth different trophy in the Europa League, having also lost the 2015-16 final to Sevilla.

Goalscorers

Mohamed Salah leads the way with 211, with his long-time strike partners Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino the other men in three figures on 120 and 111 respectively.

Sixty-three Liverpool players have scored goals under Klopp, from Emre Can bagging the first goal of his reign in a 2015 Europa League clash with Rubin Kazan to Jarell Quansah in his penultimate game in charge.

The German has won 60.8 per cent of matches and will finish just short of Sir Kenny Dalglish’s 60.9 per cent across two spells, and narrowly ahead of the club’s formative managerial partnership William Edward Barclay and John McKenna who won 60.6 per cent from 1892 to 1896.

Only Bob Paisley, with 20 trophies including six league titles, Bill Shankly (11) and Dalglish (nine) rank ahead of Klopp’s trophy count with the club.
