MY LOVE FOR LIVERPOOL
I have been a die-hard fan of Liverpool over the last 11years and have never regretted following the club ever since. The fan chants, the passion of the players, the anthem of YNWA, all of it was love at first sight. Many people have asked me in the past as to why I chose this club and i could not single out just one single reason! It was everything about the club.
I have seen the toughest periods in the last 10 years as well as have been through the better periods. The barren phase was hard to bare with less financial backing, lack of quality players/staff, and dodgy managerial decisions but we pulled through and finally got Jurgen Klopp who changed us from Doubters to Believers putting us back on the map, Klopp didn't even have a full fledged world-class squad during his time but his ability to motivate and get the best out of a team as a collective and individuals really made him special.
This club has taught me that despite not having much success, the fans are one of the most loyal and will stick through thin and through even if they were a tad bit stubborn. The fans are like no other, of course, they might get upset at bad performances, but they will never show that they hate the team.
My idol would be Steven Gerrard as he symbolizes the passion and the attitude that every modern player would certainly look up to even today.
