Thomas Tuchel has a habit of replacing Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp at his former clubs.

Tuchel was fired by Chelsea on Wednesday morning following a 1-0 defeat away to Dinamo Zagreb in their Champions League opener, despite winning the competition with the Blues about 15 months ago.

Liverpool also kicked off their European campaign in embarrassing fashion after being hammered 4-1 by Napoli in Italy on Wedensday night.

Although there’s a long way to go before Klopp is fearing for his job at Anfield, Jan Aage Fjortoft posted a jokey tweet about how historically Tuchel often replaces his fellow German coach, as he did at Mainz and Borussia Dortmund.

And here’s how former Liverpool left-back Jose Enrique reacted to the tweet:

No, Klopp won’t be leaving Liverpool anytime soon.

However, the Reds do need to get their season back on track as soon as possible.

They’ve only won two of their seven games across all competitions this season – and one of them was a 98th-minute winner at home to Newcastle United.

Liverpool just haven’t been themselves since the Premier League campaign began and although the same is undeniably true for Cheslea, Klopp need not be worried about being fired.
