Jurgen Klopp has told England fans to ignore the noise and keep the faith after seeing their side held to a goalless draw by Ghana.
The former Liverpool boss believes that the Three Lions have an 'exceptional' manager in charge, and that disappointing results are virtually an inevitability even in a successful World Cup campaign.
Klopp meanwhile remained coy on the possibility of returning to management himself in the future.

Jurgen Klopp tells England fans to 'stay calm'
England were impressive in their 4-2 victory over Croatia in the opening game, and could have assured themselves of a place at the top of Group L if they had beaten bottom seeds Ghana.
As it stands, England remain top of the group on goal difference ahead of facing Panama in their final game on Saturday.
" Thomas Tuchel is an outstanding coach. Outstanding coaches sometimes have a draw. That's crazy, huh? Yeah, it's crazy!
"And sometimes you don't score, and sometimes you're unlucky, and all this kind of thing...that doesn't kind of change my mind. He's exceptional.

"[England's] first game [against Croatia ] was super, was really good, tight - maybe tighter than everybody wanted...but they won it.
"I couldn't watch last night, but seeing the results...I know how the British media are. So stay calm.
"I don't think there's ever in the history of the World Cup a team, who won all games. You know, when you win the last game, you are world champions, that's clear. But before [the final], those things can happen."
Best known to many Americans as the scary Trivago man, Klopp currently works as head of global soccer for the Red Bull group of clubs.
Asked if he sees himself coaching again, Klopp joked: "Yeah, I do it every day, actually, to myself in the morning: 'GET UP!', these kind of things.
"We will see, who knows, who knows."
