Jürgen Klopp

Even when we had arguments, we always found a way out as me player.

And it never got carried into the team that I lost respect.

They lost respect for me because I acted that way.

So we always stayed together.

We always find a way that they understood, okay, it's really important that we get through this, that they sorted, the boss sorted with him or the boss sorted with us, that we can go from here again.

I have no clue.

The coach I learned the most of, Wolfgang Frank, when he came back to Mainz, he was at Mainz, very successful spell, left, and then we were in trouble again.

He came back, and I was the captain.

And we had a very experienced player from a first-division team coming to Mainz in the second division.

Lars Schmidt was his name.

And Wolfgang said, Jürgen, can we talk?

Jürgen, I want to make Lars the captain.

Good.

So then you are not captain anymore?

Yeah, I know.

So it was exactly like that.

It meant nothing to me.

So my role was not... I was a leader in the team, not on purpose.

I was on the pitch, an aggressive leader, which I didn't like.

So heart rate above 140, I lost it very often in a very, very not good way.
