Jürgen Klopp

And now I arrived and the only thing I did when I, the two sessions I had were both exactly about that 4-4-2 playoff.

ball-orientated movements, and we go for MSV Duisburg that time, they were third in the table, we go for them like nobody else.

But I like these moments.

I like to find a reason why it makes sense, why we give our absolute all in a moment like this, why we don't invest only the minimum, why we invest the maximum.

why we would regret it if we don't do it, how better life is if we do it, how much more fun it is if we do it.

I love these moments, and probably something like that.

I told them, and from that moment on, nobody wanted to play against us anymore.

So we were like, wow, animals.

It was great.

It was a fantastic time.

Same team, pretty much changed overnight.

They wrote us off, showed the outside world, whatever you can do.

Most of the time it was real life, but that time, in my meetings later on, I never prepared in a way that I wrote something down or whatever.

Our life was preparation, what happened during the week with us in the world.

That was preparation for a meeting.

I never thought long about it, just remembered it when I needed it.

We spoke, I told the boys.

But that time, they needed one person to believe in them.

And I did.

It was not that I had to convince myself, I have to tell them now.
