Didi Hamann knows what it takes to win the Champions League, the midfielder famously come off the bench at half-time to help Liverpool defeat AC Milan in 2005.
Despite Klopp transforming Liverpool into one of the most dangerous sides on the continent, Hamann doesn't think the Reds will add to their haul of six European Cups this season.
Instead, the ex-Manchester City and Bayern Munich midfielder has backed one of his other former clubs to go all the way in the tournament this season following an impressive summer in the transfer market - and it's all because of Philippe Coutinho.
Coutinho struggled when facing Liverpool for the first time since leaving the club in the Champions League semi-finals last season as he endured a difficult 18 months at Camp Nou.
But that hasn't stopped Hamann from backing the playmaker to be the difference for Bayern this year as they look to reach the final for the first time since their final victory in 2013.
"With Coutinho this is possible," the German said when asked about Bayern's Champions League chances. "He is one of the world's best number tens.
"He is going to change Bayern's game fundamentally."

Didi had short memory. Coutinho last play against Liverpool with Messi and Suarez. And Liverpool handicap Barcelona with out playing Salah and Firmino. This season if Liverpool play Bayern , they can afford to handicap Bayern without playing the front 3 and still win.
you do know that bayern have now spent the most they've ever done so chances are, with a proper game plan we would beat Liverpool. not saying that we can right now, but you never know what can happen in football

they're looking for ways to: 1. get as much money for their reports and postings, that it does not even feel shameful to publish lies and half-truths. 2. get fans of the Liverpool Reds to square-in Dietmar Hamann and reason as though he has said something wrong. Liverpool fans do not hate Mr. Hamann - he is a legend, for all of his clubs - more so to Liverpool.
you are very correct.
