Jurgen Klopp has reiterated that he will not step down as Borussia Dortmund coach, and said that nearly every fan needs to go through times like these.

In his seventh year at the club, Klopp has come under significant pressure for the first time after Sunday's 2-0 defeat at Eintracht Frankfurt left Dortmund bottom of the Bundesliga table and fighting against relegation, according to sporting director Michael Zorc.

However, Klopp, who recently hinted at an interested in coaching in the Premier League, has already said that he will not step down as Dortmund head coach.

Speaking at a PR event in Frankfurt on Monday, he reiterated once again that he intends to stand by the Bundesliga side.

"I am not someone who just steps down. I do it all or nothing. And as long as Dortmund wants it, I will do it. I am a fighter. And I am a better coach than in 2012, you just don't see that in the table," Klopp said in quotes reported by Bild.

On Sunday, for the first time this season, Dortmund supporters denied their players a round of applause after the match, and some of the BVB fans also whistled at the players following the defeat.

"I totally understand the criticism, that's just human. I also understand the whistles. They are normal," Klopp said.

"But everyone who whistles must also question himself whether it's helpful to have a go at someone who just failed a test and tells him: You are too stupid to piss in the snow. But regardless of that, the situation feels disastrous. Nobody needs it."

The Dortmund coach added that he can cope with defeats, and added that those "who only want success have one chance: To become a FC Bayern fan."

On Friday, Dortmund host Hoffenheim at the Westfalenstadion and roles have been reversed from their meeting in the 2012-13 season. That year, Hoffenheim needed all three points from their last match to stay in the Bundesliga, and in the final 10 minutes turned a 1-0 deficit into a 2-1 win.

"We've presented them with another year of Bundesliga football through a horrible match in the past. I hope they remember it," Klopp said.

Elsewhere, Zorc has told Bild that all player contracts are also valid for the second league, and urged the BVB players "to accept the situation and handle it professionally."
