Overview
Born in Göppingen in 1964, Jürgen Klinsmann will go down as one of the best German strikers of the modern era. “The Golden Bomber”, a nickname which derives from his blonde hair and predatory goal scoring nature, enjoyed an illustrious playing career which stretched across Europe. He played for many famous clubs, scoring 232 goals in the process.
He is particularly well thought of amongst the faithful at Tottenham Hotspur, where he had two spells, in which he became famous for the ‘Klinsmann Dive’, a celebration which he pioneered as he celebrated his first goal for the club against Sheffield Wednesday. He recently managed the German national team to an unexpected third-place finish in the 2006 World Cup. He subsequently resigned in July 2006 and since then has been linked with various managerial posts such as Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and LA Galaxy. It remains to be seen where the German’s next adventure will begin.

Harry Redknapp has just been sacked by Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy, he then apoligised to the fans. "I am sorry I had to sack such a popular manager however he was rude towards me and my family and it is unacceptable in my eyes. So I relieved him from the position but I will be signing someone as good as if not better than Harry."
The fans were a bit annoyed about the sacking a few said "Harry was doing good for us and we could have made champions league with him but it doesn't matter, hopefully Mr. Levy will be able to find someone as good as him for the job!"

Jurgen Klinsmann Interview.
"This year I aim to make it into the top six, I hope to have a good run in all of the cups and perhaps maybe win the league or FA Cup. This will not be easy, not by the farest stretch of the imagination however, I think it is possible for me to do this with such a talented group of players and there are some world-class players in there!"
"Next year? Well I guess I am generally aiming for round abouts fourth, but we'll see how it goes, let's get this season out the way first then I'll starting preparing for next. Thankyou for you're time to listen to me."
