Jürgen Klopp is clearly a man who loves to celebrate.
We’ve seen as much from the way he embraces his Liverpool players after…well…anything, really.
In fact, he doesn’t even limit it to his own players.
The German is a magnetic character – that much was evident from the way Jamie Carragher looked at him throughout Klopp’s debut on ‘Monday Night Football’.
There was love in the air tonight on #MNF… https://t.co/2VXdPik276

Klopp’s the sort of man who is so charismatic that he can wish you happy birthday on literally any day of the year, and your instant response wouldn’t be “what? It’s not my birthday”. It would be “thanks man, that means a lot”.
That’s quite lucky, as it turns out, as the Liverpool manager sent birthday messages en masse to Reds fans up and down the country earlier today.
Was it a technical error from the Liverpool website, or did Klopp just know that the fans in question would appreciate the pick-me-up? We’d like to believe it was the latter.

Had an email from Liverpool – Jurgen Klopp singing Happy Birthday. It's not my birthday. I'll still accept cakes and cash though.

Thank you to #LFC for birthday wishes signed by Jürgen Klopp they sent me today. I'll re-read them in December, when my bday actually is.

It doesn't have to be your birthday to get a birthday message from Juergen Klopp pic.twitter.com/r27b0y9Vvh

Liverpool fans were big admirers of their manager’s punditry stint alongside former club captain Carragher, even if a few were concerned he was giving a little too much away.
Perhaps they were riding on the high of that appearance, but they’ve achieved something very difficult – they have managed to get people upset that they’ve received no birthday message, despite them having no reason to get one.
