The Champions League kick-off Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool FC and Thomas Tuchel’s Paris St. Germain. The two success coach, combines a lot of things. However, Klopp and Tuchel are completely different types.

“Thomas Tuchel and Jürgen Klopp is absolute with the exception of coach, each in his own way,” said Christian Heidel once about the two German coaches meeting on Tuesday with their current Clubs in the Champions League: Klopp’s Liverpool FC receives Tuchel’s Paris Saint-Germain (kick-off at 21 CEST). Blueberry, meanwhile, sporting Director of FC Schalke 04, has worked with two trainers as the Manager of the Bundesliga club FSV Mainz 05. “Thomas Tuchel is a completely different type as Jürgen Klopp, but no worse guy”, was blueberry. “Thomas is one, is completely no matter, what one has capes for a price tag where the comes from and whether it is the national players. He deals with all the same. He is not a simple type, but who believes that Jürgen Klopp is a simple guy who doesn’t know him at all.”

Different Tactics

To the outside Klopp always looks like the dude that can with any. With its open, often amusing style, the 51 wins-Year-old quickly the hearts of the players and the media. Tuchel looks in comparison to the emotional slow-burner Klopp, however, is rather aloof, almost “too cerebral”. However, not only the appearance is different, the two coaches, but also your tactical concept. Klopp is a proponent of the fast shift game. As in the case of Borussia Dortmund, he lets his players in Liverpool almost panic-like, from the Defensive to the front of the storm, no matter which Team is on the opposite side. Also Tuchel loves the fast attacking game, his tactics but more on the weaknesses of each opponent. The 45-Year-old had inherited Klopp as a coach, first in Mainz, then at BVB. With the commitment to the all-star ensemble cast in Paris, Tuchel stepped out of the shadows really well.

With Paris started

Thomas Tuchel: Successful start to the season at Paris St. Germain

Also in Paris Tuchel Heidels evaluation confirmed that a great name for the coach. Although the goalkeeper is locked legend Gianluigi Buffon in the Champions League and can’t play in Liverpool, but he had to give up his place as number one between the posts in the League, most recently at France’s national Keeper Alphonse Areola. Tuchel sent in addition, Brazil’s Superstar Neymar from the left offensive side of midfield, as a classic playmaker. The first games gave him the right. PSG started the new season of the French Ligue 1 literally: Five games, five wins, five points ahead of second-placed. Club President Nasser Al-Khelaifi expressed euphoric over Tuchel’s entry. “We have the best coach in the world,” enthused the businessman from Qatar.

Tuchel is hoping for big run

In the past two seasons was, respectively, in the first round to end of the line, in the four years previously in the quarter-finals. Winning the Champions League is not predictable, said Tuchel, compared to the sports newspaper “L’equipe”. It is clear, however, that it is measured mainly due to the fact, as Paris St. Germain cut-off in the elite class. The PSG, Tuchel, lacked a successful series, as you have about submit Real Madrid. “The day will come when you have a major victory to celebrate, which in turn creates a run.”

Jürgen Klopp: Five games, five wins

A run also Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool FC currently has. Also, the “Reds” won their first five season games in the Premier League, all of them. Only due to the worse goal tally Liverpool is in second place behind the point is the same Chelsea. In his fourth season as coach of the English club, Klopp wants to finally get his first title. Last season, Liverpool in the Champions League failed-finals to Real Madrid in 2016 in the final of the Europa League, Sevilla FC and in the same season in the English League Cup to Manchester City.

“Not even for a second, which is easily”

Before the Champions League opener against PSG stacked Klopp: “The are really good, a very interesting football project,” said the German success trainer about the opponent and pointed out that Paris had played last Friday at the 4:0 win against AS Saint-Etienne even without two Superstars: world champion Kylian Mbappe was locked, Neymar was rested from Tuchel.

“People say: ‘you should win this year the Champions League, because you have achieved in the last year, the finals’,” said Klopp to the high expectations of him and Liverpool FC. “But guys, stop it! We play in the two toughest competitions in the world, the Premier League and the Champions League. Since there is not a second that is easy.”
