Kop bops to Klopp's pop

Be prepared for a spate of Liverpool players appearing on Strictly Come Dancing after Jürgen Klopp revealed that one of the training ground methods he has used to help rejuvenate Liverpool since his arrival at Anfield last month involves dance.
The enthusiastic German has been putting his squad through its paces to the progressive pop/rock sound of Barclay James Harvest, a British band who were hugely successful in Germany during the 1970s and '80s.
"I was a little surprised that none of the lads had heard of the Harvest - in Germany they are gods", Klopp told bemused reporters on Monday. "Their music has all the elements needed for football choreography: powerful ballads for defensive solidity, dazzling up-tempo sections for aggressive play on the break, and lots of stuff that just makes you want to smile and enjoy football because it's a beautiful, crazy thing. All Germans will tell you they are a really super band - or 'naff', as I believe you say in English."
