Bayern Munich coach Jurgen Klinsmann is remaining defiant amid reports he is set to lose his job. Speaking to reporters before boarding the plane home in the wake of last night's humiliating 4-0 Champions League defeat by Barcelona, Klinsmann ruled out handing in his resignation and claimed he still has the necessary respect from his players.

"Obviously it is a tough time for the coach but we have got to stick together and now concentrate fully on the Bundesliga. We all know why it has come to this but I am sure we will recover the three points that separate us from the top against Frankfurt on Saturday," Klinsmann said.
