Klopp's human side never came up short - Weidenfeller

The former goalkeeper remembers the coach's time in charge of Borussia Dortmund as the highlight of his career as the club was turned "upside down"

Jurgen Klopp is an "emotional type" of coach as well as one who always makes the right tactical decisions, according to former Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Roman Weidenfeller.

Weidenfeller spent 16 years with Dortmund, but his most successful spell with the Bundesliga side came under Klopp's leadership. The keeper played a key role as Klopp guided Dortmund to consecutive league titles, two DFB-Pokal successes and a Champions League final, where they lost to domestic rivals Bayern Munich.
