Team manager Jürgen Klopp leaves the final mood for a match to his players at the English football champion FC Liverpool.
Team manager Jürgen Klopp refrains from speaking to English football champion FC Liverpool immediately before the kick-off, unlike his coaching time with Bundesliga player Borussia Dortmund. In an interview with the online portals Spox and Goal, the success coach revealed that he would leave the final mood to his players.
“In the cabin, the players take the floor. As with BVB, I keep my speech in the team hotel with regard to set-up, tactics, approach and possibly motivation. In Dortmund, I later became really active in the cabin itself, which is different in England, “Klopp described his changed method compared to earlier years. Among the Reds, there are “enough players” who can take over. James Milner, for example, always skilfully sums up my session, often screaming with all the necessary words to make the boys fire under their butts. ”
Despite more than five years on the island, the 53-year-old continued to cite language barriers as a reason for his atypical reticence, especially in the important phase a few moments before games: “My English has improved considerably over the years, but this trash talk must then sit before the game. You can’t stumble on one, that’s why I’m not doing it. “
