How do you not love Jurgen Klopp?
The German has charmed everybody since arriving in England, regardless of which club you support, and his post-match comments after Liverpool's defeat at Newcastle have only cemented his lovable reputation even more.
Watching Klopp's interview just minutes after leaving St. James' Park without a point, it was difficult not to cast one's mind back 24 hours to Jose Mourinho's post-match observations after defeat to Bournemouth.

Where Mourinho re-iterated his belief that Chelsea should have won the game, Klopp gave Newcastle all the credit in the world for the Magpies' defying of the odds.
Where Mourinho hinted at a "lack of fair play" from Bournemouth, Klopp claimed that Newcastle deserved the win because of the position that they were in in the table and praised their playing style.
Where Mourinho remained dour and monotone, suggesting a lack of evolution from his players, Klopp remained his affable self, not wanting to dwell on the negatives.

Fair enough, Mourinho may have been right to feel slightly more aggrieved than Klopp after being denied a relatively clear penalty that would have opened the scoring but Liverpool had a perfectly good goal chalked off in the second half so decisions went against both the Blues and the Reds this weekend, but the managers dealt with them very differently.
