I'm not a Liverpool fan but I couldnt think of a better place for Sven to receive an respectful ovation. As ever, much admiration to the fanbase.

I don't know why there is so much hate on this club. This is the most special, emotional, passionate club in the entire world. Making a dying man's wish come true....enough said.

What a fitting tribute from a great English Club to a great gentleman . Liverpool you did him proud.Brilliant upload.x

[neilwatson]

I'm a Man Utd fan and this was a beautiful gesture from Liverpool to Sven, our clubs are rivals but there's moments in football when rivalry gets pushed to the sides for the common good and this is one of them.

When the football gods come to take Sven from this planet, he can proudly look back and remember that in his life, he got to manage his boyhood team and shag Ulrika Jonsson.

A true football gentleman
