Liverpool assistant manager Peter Krawietz believes that he and boss Jurgen Klopp found an instant connection with the club when they joined.

Fans were unsure of what to expect of Klopp when he arrived, given the way his tenure at Borussia Dortmund ended.

However, he managed to take the club to new heights, winning the Champions League last season.

And Krawietz believes that part of the success is due to the incredible feeling that he and Klopp have for the club, which is similar to how they felt about previous clubs Mainz and Borussia Dortmund.

"We always felt something like an identity with the club we were working for. In Mainz, it was our hometown where we grew up so obviously it was easy because it was natural," Krawietz told the Liverpool website.

"We found this in Dortmund pretty quickly. And it is, and was, the same here in Liverpool. The more you learn about this city, of course adapting a little bit, and learn how people think and what they expectof course, it helps if you have a little bit of success!

"Then people can see from the outside things are going forward. This is what we always wanted. We thought the things we want to invent take a bit of time a long-term idea and we'd come somewhere where we'd try to make an impact for the whole club, something that stays for longer even if you are not here anymore.

"Something which stays not only trophies and a good time and that it can go on. It worked in Mainz, it worked in Dortmund and I hope we are in a good way to do it as well in Liverpool."
