"They are so, so special. Unbelievable, so full of power..."
Jürgen Klopp puffs out his cheeks as he carefully chooses the right words to articulate his thoughts.
“It was the most powerful football I’ve seen.”
The manager isn’t talking about an individual.
He’s not speaking about the abilities of a team.
He’s describing the collective strength Liverpool’s players and supporters generated at Anfield during their electrifying run to the Champions League final.
“As a unit, with our supporters together, we were unstoppable, the whole stadium was unstoppable.”
Those displays of strength were never more on show than on the evenings Manchester City and AS Roma felt the brute force of the red tide.
