Former RB Leipzig boss Ralf Rangnick has hailed the work of Jurgen Klopp with his Liverpool players.
In an interview with Frankfurter Allgemein, Rangnick paid tribute to Klopp, after the Liverpool boss was awarded Men's Coach of the Year at FIFA's The Best awards on Monday night.
"If you look at Jordan Henderson or James Milner before Klopp they were totally average," he said.
"The fact that they have now become such players is entirely up to their manager. Sadio Man, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino were, until three or four years ago, everything other than typical pressing strikers.
"They just wanted to have the ball and play with it. The fact that they have grown together at Liverpool is all down to Jrgen Klopp."
