The World Cup is not yet a week old, and already former Liverpool head coach Jurgen Klopp has had an eventful tournament.Currently Red Bull’s global head of soccer, the 58-year-old has been embroiled in an argument with Germany head coach Julian Nagelsmann, drawn the anger of a trio of high-profile internationals and become a meme.He has also become a hero and hypocritical villain for something that he absolutely did not say.So, the argument with Nagelsmann first…During this World Cup, Klopp is working for Magenta TV, a streaming platform which has rights to every game. He has been paired with Thomas Muller, the former Bayern Munich and Germany forward — now of the Vancouver Whitecaps — and the two have struck up a rapport, becoming a punditry double-act.The dynamic is matey and punchy, with lots of high-jinx and backslapping. Both wore replica shirts for Germany’s first game against Curacao over the weekend, and are leaning into a fans-in-stadium vibe. They are celebrating goals, standing arm-in-arm to boom out the national anthem; they are not playing it cool and, actually, while not to everyone’s tastes, they are a lot of fun.
