Jurgen Klopp's wife Ulla is delighted she helped her husband make what seem to be the right choice by joining Liverpool instead of Premier League rivals Manchester United.

The German tactician also helped the Bundesliga giants emerge runners-up at the 2012/2013 Champions League season with breathaking performances.
Liverpool legend Phil Thompson has however explained that the manager's wife stopped his move to United because she did not think it was right.
Thompson told TV2 in Norway: "Then Klopp told me he could have taken over Manchester United, but his wife said it wasn't right.
Since joining Liverpool in 2015, the manager has helped the Reds win 1 Premier League, 1 UEFA Champions League, 1 UEFA Super Cup and 1 FIFA Club World Cup.
He has also built a formidable squad for Liverpool as the future of the club is bright with several sensational players having improved trememdously.
