On June 27, 2020, Liverpool chairman Tom Werner expressed his confidence in the team's ability to enjoy sustained success under manager Jurgen Klopp.

Werner's comments came after Liverpool won the Premier League title for the first time in 30 years, with Manchester City's defeat at Chelsea sealing the title for the Reds.

Werner, who has been chairman of the Merseyside club since 2010, believes the winning mentality created by Klopp since he took charge in 2015 will keep the team hungry for more success next season.

According to Werner, the team's hunger for winning will not be diminished, and he praised Klopp for rescuing Liverpool from mediocrity.

Werner also heaped praise on Klopp, saying, "We want to undersell and overdeliver. We hopefully would be ensuring another period of sustained success."

He added, "One of the things that stuck with me this year was their hunger for winning. I don’t think that will be diminished. They’re such a good group of players."

Werner also praised the team's humility and kindness, saying, "They’re humble, they’re kind, they enjoy each other’s company."
