Hamann: Klopp and Liverpool can succeed without Gerrard

Former Germany international Dietmar Hamann, believes that Jurgen Klopp can succeed without Steven Gerrard among his staff.

Former Anfield favourite Dietmar Hamann has suggested that Jurgen Klopp does not need the help of Steven Gerrard to bring success to Liverpool.

Klopp recently suggested that the former Liverpool and England captain would be welcome to join his backroom staff at any point.

Gerrard announced his retirement from professional football on Thursday and Hamann seems unconvinced that an immediate return to his boyhood club would benefit either Gerrard or the current manager, with Liverpool just a point of Premier League leaders Chelsea after a strong start to the season.
