Liverpool fans bring back five chants at Jürgen Klopp farewell against Wolves

Liverpool fans can be relied upon to rise to the occasion. Amid all the club's planned tributes, perhaps Jürgen Klopp will have been most touched by the Kop's spontaneous farewell gesture.

After all, Klopp has spent most of the second half of the season playing down the narrative of his departure, imploring focus on the bigger picture. Today, of all days, that did not seem especially likely, but the Liverpool supporters rose to the occasion and struck a perfect balance.

Of course, there were renditions of Klopp's song, and the traditional pre-match You'll Never Walk Alone made Klopp visibly emotional. But in a slightly less predictable move, Anfield was made to ring with the sounds of some old chants.

Not long after kick-off, the sound of Si Señor could be heard ringing around Anfield. One of the defining figures of the Klopp era, this was in its own way a tribute to the manager, recognizing all that has been achieved during his tenure.

But Klopp will have loved his players being given a share of the spotlight. And hardly anyone was left out as Anfield almost exhausted its songbook.

As well as Roberto Firmino, there were tributes to Sadio Mané, Georginio Wijnaldum, Jordan Henderson and of course Divock Origi. The Belgian was responsible for perhaps the most iconic moment of the Klopp era, scoring the fourth goal against Barcelona before later clinching the Champions League final against Spurs.

Meanwhile, plenty of the players still at the club were recognized too. Virgil van Dijk, Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Andy Robertson and more all heard their songs sung, underlining the sheer number of players to have thrived under Klopp.

Liverpool.com says: This was Anfield at its best. Klopp wanted to focus on the game, but will surely have liked this tribute, a celebration of the last nine years rather than purely the manager himself.

But of course, if one man has made the last nine years possible, it is Klopp. Whether as many of these songs would have emerged without the German at the helm is doubtful: he has made Liverpool into a dominant force, and the chants brought out at Anfield were a perfect reminder of some of the memories that will last for a lifetime.
