"He's a high-quality manager, one of the best in the world for sure. This long period, it's really rare that you can do this but he did. He's a football maniac, in the best [sense of the word].
"It was always a challenge to play against him and again a challenge that I'm looking forward to."

Jurgen Klopp vs Arsene Wenger

Arsenal won three of those games, Dortmund two, with one match drawn. But Klopp has done very well this season against Premier League's heavy weights.
in the process beating Leicester and drawing at Tottenham, the kopps' outstanding away wins against Manchester City and Chelsea has proven to Klopp that his wards can turn-up in big games.

"After 10 minutes at Chelsea it was a very, very good away game and from the first second against City," he said.
"The main information we should take out of these two matches is we have to be really good. If we are good, then it could fit for this game of course.
"But Arsenal, together with City, are the two best teams at this moment in the Premier League. To stay in a good position against Man City, they need all the points, they cannot [pick and choose] where they want to get it.
"They will show us that they have real ambitions this year. They're in a good moment.
"We can be, we're not that consistent in the performances in the last weeks but [the 1-0 win over] Stoke was a good sign of what my team is capable of."
