The news that Jurgen Klopp will miss Liverpool's game with Sunderland today due to appendicitis has sparked Twitter discussion.

As you might expect, social media users around the world have poked fun at the fact the German will not be in attendance.

While there are plenty of get well soon messages, and nothing too harsh, users are joking that Liverpool's form is the cause of his ailment!

Comparisons to crocked forward Daniel Sturridge have also jokingly been raised, in a mini-role reversal. Though as per, the England man too misses out of the starting lineup.

Now the fanfare surrounding his arrival has largely subsided, fans are poking fun at his rather inconsistent spell in charge so far.

Some are even suggesting the former Borussia Dortmund coach is at the Etihad Stadium to watch Leicester thump Manchester City in the top of the table clash!

All in good jest of course.

Get well soon, Jurgen!
