Based on his demeanour during his press conference, you wouldn't worry about Jurgen Klopp having to deal with the weight of expectation at Liverpool.
Articulate, good-humoured and charismatic as ever, he dealt with today's events with expected ease.
But one thing I was interested in hearing about from the horse's mouth were indications about the style of play he will employ at Anfield, given that he has publicly spoken about his love for a "heavy metal" style of football that was evident during his Borussia Dortmund tenure in the past.
There were enough clues in his responses to the media today to suggest that his philosophy remains mostly unchanged.
More than once he referred to the word "emotion" which will underpin his approach.
"I believe in a playing philosophy that is very emotional, very fast and very strong. Everybody knows me. I haven't changed in four months. [My style is] emotion inside, it's speed, it's a transition game. All the things that make football interesting for me I want to see on the pitch," he said, while also tellingly referencing "full-throttle" play.

So, there is enough evidence that pressing and counter-attacking at speed will be key to how the team play and it certainly worked for him at Dortmund, apart from his final season when the team ran out of steam.
Liverpool themselves played a frenetic style during their Luis Suarez-inspired title charge in 2013-14 and they do have players capable of putting opponent's under immense pressure.
Summer signing Roberto Firmino was part of a Hoffenheim side which pressed and made more tackles per game than any other club in the Bundesliga last season according to WhoScored.com - even more than Dortmund.
They also scored the joint most counter-attacking goals in the last campaign, with Firmino among the most prolific attacking tacklers in Germany in the last campaign with 2.7 tackles per match. That would suggest that he should be well equipped to adapt to Klopp's high intensity, high graft game plan.
Captain Jordan Henderson and his deputy James Milner would also have the attitude to fit in from midfield, while there is pace across many departments in the side (full-back, up front etc) to conduct blistering counter-attacks and lightning fast transitions from defence to attack and back again.
His first match will be away to Tottenham next Saturday lunchtime where we will get a first glimpse of his approach, but at least we have an idea of the game-plan in mind.
