We’re used to seeing Jurgen Klopp smiling with that dazzling and almost-too-big-for-his-mouth goofy grin but the new Liverpool manager also has a fiery side.

It was on full display during the second half of his side’s trip to Stamford Bridge when Klopp decided to respond to some criticism from the stands.

José Morais, a member of Chelsea’s backroom staff sat immediately behind the dugout, decided to take umbrage with Klopp’s protests to fourth official Lee Mason.

Klopp, undeterred by Morais’ shouting, gave some right back, reportedly telling the 50-year-old coach to ‘take a time out’.

Earlier this week, Klopp called Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho a “nice guy” despite his touchline antics causing much controversy in recent weeks.

Perhaps this incident is proof you can be a very happy, smiley football manager and still keep a bit of fire in the belly.
