Klopp’s Liverpool FC side racked up an impressive total of 99 points across their 2019-20 Premier League campaign. The Reds played a wonderful brand of attacking football, smashing many league records in the process.
Having won 26 of their opening 27 fixtures in the Premier League, Klopp’s men also wrapped up their league title glory faster than any other side in the competition’s history. The Anfield giants sealed their victory with seven rounds of fixtures still to be played.
The German coach was honoured with the year-end accolade whose shortlist included names such as Brendan Rodgers, Chris Wilder, and Frank Lampard. All four managers had enjoyed a superb 2019-20 league campaign in charge of their respective sides in the Premier League.
