Jürgen Klopp

I never got hit by whatever, never, never, never.

It was just he wanted to bring the best out of me.

I think that was what he wanted.

Tough in a way, yeah, how people were brought up in that time probably, but not tough, endless, that you thought, you don't want to have to do anything with him.

No, no, no, I loved him to bits, and he loved me.

He was very proud, but never said it, and these kind of things, so...

He was a good guy, a really good guy.

But with his son, he wanted...

him to be ambitious and was a bit afraid that I might be not ambitious enough.

Who knows if it was right?

Probably it was right.

I don't know.

It was not nice in a way when you tell the story.

It's like, my God, come on, let the poor boy win or whatever.

He had no chance.

It's just you stand on the touchline and you run to the halfway line.

I realized that my dad had, without knowing at that time it was a skill, he could speak publicly.

You don't know that you have that, but I have it.

Today I know it.

I don't care if a camera is in my face or whatever.
