Jurgen Klopp sends touching Christmas present to brave Ballyfermot granny

This is pure class.

This is Jurgen Klopp and this is Liverpool summed up in one beautiful gesture. The club has always been an all-inclusive, welcoming haven for all of its supporters. They've always looked out for one another and they've always had some special kind of a family bond that's absent in most other places. You don't even need to live in Liverpool or be from Liverpool to feel that attachment to Anfield. It's a rare thing and, no matter how much you might scoff at it when you're following another team, it's a great thing. Now they have a manager who's in serious danger of making Liverpool Football Club lovable to everyone outside of that circle of trust too. Jurgen Klopp is a man of the people. His fans worship him. Jesus, fans of other clubs even worship him. So when someone like him sends a personalised letter, you can imagine how much it means. A grandmother from Ballyfermot in Dublin received a message of support from the Liverpool manager before Christmas to say that the club was behind her in her battle with cancer. 67-year-old Marie Wright is an avid 'Pool fan but was given just weeks to live back in February when she was diagnosed with lung cancer but a campaign from her fellow Reds saw her get to her first match at Anfield to watch Liverpool crush Leicester 4-1. Now, she is still fighting and Liverpool are still behind her. https://twitter.com/patmccarry/status/812251178084012032 According to The Echo, Marie received a personally-written letter from Jurgen Klopp that reminded her she "will never walk alone."

"As one of our supporters, that means you are part of the LFC family and we care about you," Klopp wrote.

She's planning to return to Anfield in the new year. What an inspiration and what a club.
