Klopp Reveals Which EPL Club He Rejected In 2013

“It was a big honour, the whole talk”, he told reporters.

“You have to defend well because they have brilliant players”, he said.

‘Maybe he is the greatest ever – the John Lennon of football.

Klopp, however, hailed Ferguson as the “John Lennon of football” and said it was a privilege to have a conversation with him.

The German trainer has admitted that his options in attack are not comprehensive now but worries that he could have too many players when everyone is fit if he does dip into the transfer market before the end of the month.

“Here it is different because we already have a department doing all this stuff and I try to prepare – filter all the information we need and prepare meetings for the team”.

“I first had to finish the job with Dortmund and then think about other things”.

“It’s like with you with me when I came here”, he said.

“We have to see what we can find out: Has something changed, really, or was it only the good performance of Newcastle?” Liverpool now have just Christian Benteke as… What he did is not easy for another manager to do’.

“We use this, especially at the moment, to improve the development”.

“Why should I think that much about Man United?”.

“Sometimes you have to make a step back so you can do the next step in the right direction”. Martin (Skrtel) will be a few weeks still.

The previous season Bayern won both fixtures, including a 5-1 win at Dortmund in which Bastian Schweinsteiger, now of United, scored. Historically it is a really big clash and we have to accept that we are protagonists.

One of Klopp’s most quoted comments likens his footballing style to heavy metal.

Klopp was pleased to hear Ferguson had praised his ability and spoken of his worry at how his presence could challenge United.

Manchester United legend Eric Cantona was the face of this Kronenburg commercial, but it was banned in England for misleading consumers. “The stories (going) around I am not interested in”, he said.

“After that, you have to accept that the first question that will be asked, by everybody in the stadium or around the world, will be: ‘Could the keeper have done better?’ That’s part of the job”.
