I thought he'd dropped back to centre half down to his physicality and height mate.
See Tezzz. He's reading a book on him.
Just did a quiz about Klopp on the BBC website, and one of the questions was what position did he play after he was a striker. The answer was RB. I swear he was a CB? Does anyone know?
Just double checked the book and typed some direct quotes for you.
"Klopp was brought to Mainz from Rot-Weiss Frankfurt as a striker. As a young player, his pace had been instrumental to his switch from amateur to professional football."
"Like so many attacking players, the longer Klopp's career went on, the further back on the pitch he moved. Following on from his attacking role, manager Josip Kuze then moved him to the right of midfield. Subsequent manager Wolfgang Frank shifted Kloppo to the right side of defence for good."
So seems as if he went from Striker, to Right Mid, to Right Back. Hopefully that clears it up a bit.
Off to town now to get hammered and then off over the water to the ground. Have a good one lads.
