After thinking about it repeatedly, Klopp finally accepted Liverpool's invitation, willing to come to the English mainland, and willing to be Liverpool's pick-up man.

That is, after the second game of the Chinese team, Klopp has made up his mind, before arriving at the team, Klopp also started his work seriously, his first job is communication, although people have not arrived, but it is always beneficial to do these jobs in advance.

The first name that Klopp thought of in his German apartment!

Thinking of the name, Klopp felt a little like laughing, Zhang Yuan made a deep impression on him, no, not from the Champions League final, but from his first encounter after coaching Dortmund.

At the West** Stadium, the derby in the Ruhr area, the Zhang Yuan who staged a long-distance run, the Zhang Yuan who fought with Rukavina, and the Chinese boy who was secretly scolded by himself as a "bastard".

The scenes of the Ruhr derby are still deeply engraved in Klopp's mind, talent, extraordinary dexterity, wind-like speed, and of course, that is Klopp's impression of Zhang Yuan at that time.

He was very dangerous, Klopp remembered that he had formulated a very detailed tactic at the time, but he still couldn't stop Zhang Yuan, and he was able to get a draw in that game, thanks to the referee's somewhat biased favor with Dortmund, Dortmund has been fighting for a long time, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to get a draw.

At that time, Klopp had a hunch that one day Zhang Yuan would definitely stand at the top of the world, and now he has really done it, he has become the world footballer, of course, there should be a pre-word, former Ballon d'Or winner.

This year's Golden Ball Award should be said to be won by Ronaldo without any suspense, Neuer has a high voice, but unfortunately lost, Messi Silver Ball Award, Zhang Yuan did not even enter the top three, presumably Zhang Yuan is very angry now, right?

Unexpectedly, a few years later, two people who may never have thought of meeting in a team before actually reunited in Liverpool, Klopp quite a bit of a Songhai Cangtian feeling, his first thought of contacting Liverpool's leading star, second captain Zhang Yuan, not the aging Gerrard.

Thinking about the time, Klopp dialed the phone number provided by Qian Huan!

"Hey, Zhang Yuan?!I'm Jurgen Klopp!"

"Mr. Klopp?!" Australia is already at night at this time, Zhang Yuan is playing football games with a few teammates in the room, this period is completely closed management, can not see his family, can not go out of the hotel, Zhang Yuan their evening entertainment is only to play games, play table tennis.

Zhang Yuan's voice was a little loud, Gao Jun and Wang Lei of the national team heard it, Zhang Yuan covered his mobile phone, "Shhh

This room is not a presidential suite, just a single room, Zhang Yuan chose to go to the bathroom to have a telephone conversation with Mr. Klopp!

"Uh, hello! Mr. Klopp!"

There was no sound from Zhang Yuan's side for a few seconds, and Klopp thought that Zhang Yuan was in trouble!

"Are you busy?!"

"Oh no! We're already on break! I'm chatting in the room with a few friends!" Zhang Yuan explained, and then said with a grin: "Mr. Klopp, you call me, you must have decided to take over the team, right?!"

"Haha, it's not hard to guess, right?!" Klopp laughed, "Yes, I've decided to take over Liverpool, and tomorrow I'll go to Liverpool and sign a contract with Liverpool!"

"This is very good, on behalf of me personally, I would like to welcome you to the city! I am looking forward to the cooperation between us!" Zhang Yuan said very cheerfully.

"Thank you very much for your welcome! I look forward to working with each other! You know what?! I just remembered the past, the first time we met, it was in the Ruhr derby, you impressed me very much!" Klopp felt that the start of the day was not bad, everyone had a minimum of respect for each other, Zhang Yuan talked lively, and it seemed that this guy still maintained a welcoming gesture towards himself.

This is very important! Because Zhang Yuan can't see him as a pawn, this is Klopp's view, he admits that his team needs to instill his philosophy, but his philosophy needs to be changed in Zhang Yuan's place, Zhang Yuan needs to play his core energy, and he hopes that his philosophy can be seamlessly connected with Zhang Yuan's characteristics.

In other words, it can be said that the other 9 people on the field, or the offensive system personnel in the midfield, must realize the docking with Zhang Yuan, so that Zhang Yuan can exert his maximum energy.

Klopp doesn't see him as a pawn at heart, he's a man who has the ability to change teams, and Klopp's plan is to make Zhang Yuan realize that ability, not a simple goal-scoring machine.

Now it looks like Zhang Yuan is a goal machine, but it has not been able to change the fate of Liverpool, which is not true, at least Klopp thinks Zhang Yuan's room for improvement is here.

"I hope it's not a painful memory!" Zhang Yuan joked generously, he had forgotten the first encounter with Klopp, who was not very famous at that time, and there were too many people in the position of head coach.

"Haha, not for me! You didn't win the derby, and we ended up 3-3!" Klopp laughed!

Zhang Yuan also gradually recalled, 3:3, about the 09-10 season, right?!

"That's good! I'm afraid you'll hold a grudge, and you'll take revenge on me!" Zhang Yuan continued to laugh.

"Of course not, we are now in a team, and we will cooperate instead of tearing each other down in the future!Tell me?!Why did you come to Liverpool?!I heard that you have a deep relationship with the young boss of Liverpool, it can't be for this reason?!" Klopp began to gradually open the conversation.

"How do you say this?!There are some of them, but it's not the main thing!I got invitations from other teams last summer, Manchester City, Paris, they were all interested in me, but I didn't choose Liverpool just because I was friends with Qian Huan!" Zhang Yuan frankly described the experience of the transfer period, he did not hide the slightest, these things belong to his personal affairs, it stands to reason that he does not need to make it clear to Klopp, but from Klopp's questioning, it is obvious to hear a message.

Klopp wants to ask Zhang Yuan, what did you come to Liverpool for from a European champion?!

"Are you a Liverpool fan?!Want to lead Liverpool back to glory?!Is that so?!" Klopp said with a smile after listening to Zhang Yuan's explanation.

"Well, there are other reasons, in general, there are a lot of transfer factors, maybe not because of me personally, maybe there are others, you know what I mean?!" Zhang Yuan explained on the other end of the phone, "I am looking forward to a new beginning, I want to challenge a period that I have never experienced before! But I am serious, I hope I can get continuous victories and success!"

"Want to be the best player in the world?!" Klopp chimed in.

How to answer this question?! Zhang Yuan actually won the Golden Globe Award, and the idea seems to have faded a lot, but in fact, the world's number one is like that.

"How can I answer your question, Mr. Klopp?!If I say no, will you think I'm hypocritical?!" Zhang Yuan asked rhetorically.

"Honestly, I'd love to answer yes, but I still want to hear what you mean, what you mean!" Klopp said bluntly.

"I'm playing for fun, I've always been! Winning can bring me happiness, championships can bring me happiness, challenges can bring me happiness! Winning the Ballon d'Or once may be enough for me, far less than that!" Zhang Yuan thought for a while and replied to Klopp seriously.

This answer touched Klopp quite a lot, this ambition is very big, Klopp thinks about how he is not like this, he is eager to conquer the world with his football philosophy, and the best coach in world football is really not so important to him, so Klopp agrees with Zhang Yuan's answer from the bottom of his heart, and he said it very well.
