Van Gaal's 'sex masochism', 'sore loser' Ronaldo & Rambo Ibrahimovic - The best quotes of 2016

Jurgen Klopp, Jose Mourinho and Zlatan all feature as Goal's Mark Doyle brings you the most memorable comments of the past 12 months.

The end of another year is always an apt time for reflection. Unless, of course, you're Jurgen Klopp, who had no interest in celebrating his first anniversary as Liverpool boss.

"I'm a year older and all this s***," the German grumbled in October. "We will not celebrate, I can tell you that! Hopefully nobody brings me a cake! I have no time and I am not in the mood for reflection."

Here at Goal, though, we always like to take stock at the end of the year and look back upon what's gone before. We're even bigger fans of picking out the most memorable quotes of the past 12 months to remind ourselves just how amusing, entertaining, repugnant and poignant 'The Beautiful Game' can be.
