It is quite hard to imagine the birth of a tactical genius. He appears the heck out of nowhere, and becomes famous for a fantastic style and vision for the game. But, was he ever a kid? Did he play football? Was he born in a tracksuit with a beard, a yellow cap and a pair of glasses? It’s hard to know where a certain Jurgen Klopp comes from.
But then you look at this Wiki article, look through some ‘editorials’ on his past and you go, ‘AH! NOW I know the man who brought unprecedented success to a small football club known only as Borussia Dortmund.’ Most at home, animated, screaming orders on the touchline at the Westfalenstadion and with a wall of supporters singing his praise as his charges go onwards – that is how you see the true Jurgen Klopp.
