Jurgen Klopp revealed the one selfie he has on his phone is with Lionel Messi and mischievously pointed out that Cristiano Ronaldo was in the same room at the time.
The Liverpool boss is a huge admirer of the Barcelona and Argentina superstar and drew laughs from an audience on an LFCTV Q&A when he suggested he'd snubbed Ronaldo.
Klopp said: 'I have only one selfie on my smartphone. That's with Messi. Cristiano was in the room as well...
In the eternal debate over who is the better player, it seems Klopp's loyalties lie with the diminutive forward.
And Klopp spoke about another legendary figure from the footballing world, Pele.
'My father always told me, whatever people people say in the future, Pele was the best.
'I met him actually, when I was a pundit at the World Cup in 2006. I'm not the type of guy who gets nervous but I was sweating like crazy in that moment,' he admitted.
The German has a dream front-line of his own to work with at Anfield and has steered his side to the top of the Premier League.
Liverpool extended their lead over Manchester City to four points after beating Wolves 2-0 on Friday night.

I have come to realize that this is the reason why some pipo can do well and fail wen it matters the most.cr7's strong mentality is built by the trash he receives day and night from soccer fans,coaches,former team mates, and the general public.he is alone against billions and whoever talks about him becomes famous kkkk.if u talk football without mentioning his name its not complete. he covers all aspects of the game.if he scores a penalty then another guy scores 4goals in a single match,still he will be at the centre of the news for it to bring peoples attention.OK surely wat does it mean(I snubbed him a selfie).did he ask for it?does klopp even know wat he has started?just a selfie and u make news of it.did u know that C.Ronaldo is the most talked about person in the world

stupidity makes people say Messi is a one club legend.ronaldo move from small club to big club that's already buld.from Porto to man u.man u greater at that time, from man u to Madrid . Madrid greater at that time.from Madrid to Juventus.juventus that always sure of the league title every season. Messi on the other hand was lucky to start his carrier in the highest club.y do u want him to come low.are u a devil.

I hate comparing Ronaldo and Messi because both of them are very good in different aspects. You just have to like them both and stop comparing them.Messi's fans will miss Ronaldo most five years after he has retired and Cr7's fans will miss Messi more five years after he has retired because only then you'll start seeing the other side of the divide is seeing now. Just enjoy them both as they continue to entertain us because nothing lasts forever and at one point in life we gonna have to live without them.

I guess messi was available all alone to click snaps however Ronaldo was in the same room with his fans surrounded hence klopp didn't get a hold of him..

We are the luckiest of the generations because we have two G. O. A. Ts with us. We don't have to argue about who is better because even sometimes we can't get to choose between a Ferrari and a Lamborghini
