Ralf Rangnick, an old friend of Jurgen Klopp, worked with Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane, Ibrahima Konate, Joel Matip, Naby Keita and Takumi Minamino during his time as a coach and sporting director at Schalke, RB Leipzig and Red Bull Salzburg.<\/p>\n
Rangnick isn\u2019t taking credit for his former players\u2019 success at Liverpool, but he believes the manner they learned to play in Germany and Austria is now paying off for Klopp\u2019s Liverpool.<\/p>\n
In a pre-match interview with Sky Sports, Rangnick stated, \u2018Having six players from prior clubs is not an accident.\u2019 He also explained that he didn\u2019t say how much effect he had on those players, but it\u2019s quite evident that a huge club like Liverpool, one of Europe\u2019s top clubs, has six former players who no one knew when he signed them at RB Leipzig and RB Salzburg. He also stated that he and Jurgen Klopp know each other from their time in Germany, he praised Klopp for the work he has done with Borussia Dortmund and FC Mainz before coming to Liverpool and also thinks that his German counterpart is one of the best coaches if not the best.<\/p>\n
