# Liverpool: Fans flock to surprising Jurgen Klopp admission

**Many Liverpool fans have been discussing Jurgen Klopp’s claim that he would like to work with Andriy Voronin again if he could.**

The Ukrainian worked with Klopp at Mainz, before making [40 appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/andriy-voronin/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/1075) between 2007 and 2010 for Liverpool.

In his 40 appearances, the striker struggled to adapt to English football as he scored [six goals and grabbed five assists](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/andriy-voronin/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/1075), despite scoring [37 in 119 for Bayer Leverkusen](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/andriy-voronin/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/1075) and [30 in 70](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/andriy-voronin/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/1075) for Mainz before moving to Anfield.

Speaking to ‘This Is Anfield’ on YouTube \[via [Anfield Watch on Twitter](https://twitter.com/AnfieldWatch/status/1445826992188837891)\], the Reds boss was asked who is the one player he’d like to work with again and he opted for Voronin.

He said: “If Andriy had known just one day in his life how good he could have been, it would have been absolutely amazing.

“Andriy was an incredible player, an incredible talent.”
