Djimi Traore discusses how his former club Liverpool FC has shaped his coaching philosophy

Sounders FC assistant coach Djimi Traore is still an avid supporter of Liverpool FC, even as he pursues the second phase of his soccer career in the United States.

Traore, who won the UEFA Champions League with the Reds back in 2005, chatted with LiverpoolFC.com about his journey into the coaching ranks, and how his philosophy on teaching the game has been shaped by copiously studying the tactical identity of Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool side.

"I watch all the details, I watch all the ideas and the way his team plays, the interaction between players, the movement,” Traore told LiverpoolFC.
