This week's guest on Football's Greatest was a world class player in his prime. It's Chelsea, Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern Munich and Germany legend Michael Ballack.
He and Jeff sit down to discuss the best German players to have played in the Premier League: Was Mesut Ozil misunderstood? Why was Jurgen Klinsmann made for English football? And which former Manchester City star was sometimes difficult to manage?
He also gives his view on whether Jurgen Klopp will become Germany head coach one day, reveals what made footballers want to play for Jose Mourinho and what he thinks is holding back the current Chelsea side.
Football's Greatest is a Folding Pocket production with BBC Studios.
