BBC Champions League Final 2013 Aston Villa boss Lambert on Borussia Dortmund

Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert recalls his time at Borussia Dortmund, who are preparing for their second Champions League final on Saturday, and says his move to a side packed with world-class players "changed his whole life".
The Scottish midfielder signed for the German club from Motherwell in 1996 and a year later won the Champions League with them, beating Juventus in the final - and becoming the first British player to win the trophy with a foreign club.

What a player he was and modest about himself. He was brilliant when he came to Celtic

Hitzfeld is just a genius
No one other would have signed Lambert back in 1996 but he did and won champions league with Borussia!!!
