Jurgen Klopp's final 24 hours at Liverpool were sentimental and stirring in equal command.
On Sunday the Reds bade farewell to a king, a man whose reputation preceded him when he arrived in 2015 and will long outlive him in memories and songs and Merseyside murals.
A legend who has left an indelible mark on this club was given a send-off befitting every inch of his stature, with Anfield in full voice and hanging on his every word.
His last weekend as Liverpool boss saw him box up his office, hold back the tears, and deliver a memorable speech to the Anfield faithful.
