This year, it marks the final one Jurgen will have to endure at Anfield.
It somehow feels fitting then, that one his national team peers is about to do something that could well and truly cause Klopp to erupt.
For the life of us, we cannot work out why Ibrahima Konate was called up to the France squad last week.
It has nothing to do with ability, of course.
But the fact remains that Konate had not even returned from injury for Liverpool at the time of his summoning.
Having missed the Reds’ last three games with a hamstring injury, the centre-back needs to be treated with caution.
Thankfully, that was exercised at the weekend, with Konate sitting out of France’s loss against Germany on Saturday.
There’s simply no need.
The Mail suggest that Klopp will be ‘sweating’ over Konate’s inclusion and they’re surely absolutely right.
As Jarell Quansah and Joe Gomez showed in the No.5’s absence, Liverpool can make do without Konate.
It’s exactly because of that injury record that Liverpool will not thank France for putting their player at risk tonight.
From Didier Deschamps’ point of view, he’s included Konate in the squad, he’s been in full training, so they may as well use him.
Liverpool surely won’t see it that way, though.
With the games piling up upon Ibou’s return to Merseyside this weekend, they’re going to need him more than ever.
