Former Aston Villa boss offers advice to Liverpool manager-in-waiting Jurgen Klopp

Paul Lambert has offered his advice to Jurgen Klopp if he gets the Liverpool job

FORMER Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert says he will be willing to help Jurgen Klopp settle at Liverpool if he is announced as the new boss.

 

Klopp is expected to arrive in Merseyside on Thursday to agree a three-year deal with the Reds following the sacking of Brendan Rodgers on Sunday.

And Lambert has offered his Premier League experience to the former Borussia Dortmund manager should he need it.

 

The Scot featured for Dortmund during his playing career, winning the Champions League with them in 1997 in a 3-1 win over Juventus.

Lambert also spent time alongside Klopp assisting with training sessions in Germany - and now he hopes to return the favour by helping him at Liverpool.

 

The former Borussia Dortmund manager is set to sign a three-year deal with the Reds on Thursday

"Hypothetically, if he picked up the phone and asked what the league was like then I could give him an insight into it," Lambert told The Sun. 

"Klopp is a top, top manager, he won’t need too much guidance on a lot of things, he’ll maybe just ask little things about it. 

"But if he did pick up the phone or wanted to have a chat if he did get the job, I would meet him."
