Klopp lads only managed a
1-1 draw from their away match this weekend allowing Bayern Munich to draw
level at the top of the Bundesliga, However, the coach admitted that his side
only had themselves to blame.
"There was more
in it for us," he said. "Even this team which I fielded can play
better than we did, particularly in the phase just after the break when we were
too deep -- that was unnecessary.
"We
then regrouped and were the better team, but if Alex Esswein puts that chance
in at the end, then Nurnberg would have won and we would have had to accept it,
so a point's okay in the end."
Klopp
was back on the bench following his sending off against Napoli in midweek for a
confrontation with the fourth official, but he said his reputation as an
aggressive coach is unwarranted.
"It's
not the case that I attack the fourth official after every action, even if that
is the impression," he told Sky. "I don't need to be tied up,
everything's fine."
After
winning their first five games of the season, Wednesday's defeat to Napoli and
Saturday's draw have interrupted Dortmund's flying start to the season, but
goalkeeper Roman Weidenfeller says his side can have no complaints.
"We
can be very happy with a point here,'' he said. "We had one or two chances
that we could have done better with, and then we could have won it, but we
didn't play the glorious pass to our strikers to get the goal."
