Feature10 years ago today: Jürgen Klopp begins his reign at Liverpool

The German's arrival – and declaration of his intention to turn 'doubters into believers' – on Thursday October 8, 2015 was the start of a ride supporters will never forget.

Seven major honours were won and countless memories made, along with life lessons for everyone to carry forward, across his near-nine-year reign.

Klopp's appointment sparked a frenzy that had never been seen – even before he touched down on Merseyside.

'LNX30HY'.

Those who know, know.

For those that cannot recall, however, it was the number of a flight more than 35,000 people were tracking in real time online.

A plane that had departed Dortmund bound for John Lennon Airport did not require much mental arithmetic to figure out who was on board.

After landing, Klopp's appointment would be made official in a city centre hotel, where he concluded negotiations and then put pen to paper on his contract.

It was also the location of the now-iconic first interview, which would be released the following morning.

Confirmation of the football world's worst-kept secret came at 8.58pm.

A 103-word statement on Liverpoolfc.com said the club was 'delighted' to announce the news that Klopp had been appointed as its new manager.

Short and sweet but the meaning seismic, and more than enough to satisfy the millions waiting for the moment.

And then Klopp got to work immediately, saying: "We have to change from doubter to believer. Now."

A mission he completed.
