Riedle talks Klopp impact, Liverpool & Dortmund

This is a really nice interview with former Liverpool and Dortmund striker Karl-Heinz Riedle by BWin.

He has been talking about Jurgen Klopp’s impact at Liverpool, title chances as how the Reds compare to Dortmund.

On Klopp: “Jurgen has been a very successful coach at BVB. When you‘re looking for a new challenge and you receive an offer from Liverpool, you don’t have to think twice. It’s simply a cool club. He fits in perfectly.



The development has been fantastic – similar to what happened in the early years in Dortmund. If you compare the amounts other clubs have spent to Jurgen’s investments and who he brought in for that money, he did an absolutely great job.

On Liverpool & Dortmund: Liverpool is the English counterpart to Borussia Dortmund. Emotions, fans, the whole set-up – there are not many comparable clubs around, but Liverpool is certainly one of them.



On Liverpool’s title chances: “Id be so happy for the club to win it but probably it won’t happen this year. The gap to Chelsea is already quite big. Chelsea are pretty stable this season, one might not have guessed that.
