Santa Klopp's delivered AGAIN for every Liverpool fan this Christmas... he's on the road to greatness

HE’S getting a bit like Santa is Jurgen Klopp – delivering a present for the Liverpool fans every Christmas.

This is the third year in a row he has been top of the Premier League over the festive period, but, in so many ways, this is the most impressive achievement of the lot.

I need to preface this by saying straight away that you get nowt for being top at this time of year – except scrutiny.

I know that. So does Klopp. You’re there to be shot at and this year far fewer games have been played at this stage than in any previous year.

But the fact remains that the majority of teams who are top at Christmas go on to win the league, so it means something.

And I can tell you that it means everything to Klopp this year after the injury nightmare he has endured.

Honestly, he will wonder how it can even have happened – let alone that his teams are four points clear and eight ahead of Manchester City, who are still probably the biggest challenges for the title.

Two years ago, being top was pretty impressive because they were seven points clear of a City side possibly the best-ever in the Premier League on Boxing Day. Last year was mind-blowing – 10 points clear and romping away.
