New Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says he values a great tackle as much as a goal.

Klopp spoke with the Mirror about his style of football, which will be all about power and passion.

“I am not the guy who is going to go out and shout, 'We are going to conquer the world!' or something like this. We will conquer the ball. Yeah? Each. F***ing. Time!" he said, with ferocious emphasis.

“We will chase the ball. We will run more. Fight more. We will work more together. Better together. We will have better organisation in defence than the other teams. We have to find our own way to play. The result is only at the end.

“Our performances have to be enjoyable for ourselves. I don't want to tackle too rough, but if there is a tackle that is legal, that is a good tackle that gets the ball, it's like a goal, if you want. Yeeaaah!

"The players have to get the feeling in the game that, I don't know, they can dive in the game. Out of the city, it doesn't care. What I want is to be a real special team."

Klopp added: “I said these words 'full-throttle football' in Dortmund, I know, and my God I can't say always the same things. But it will be full-throttle football – we want to do the work now."
