Does anyone know anyone about him - their DoF picked Klopp's guy in Wagner at Huddersfield and seems to be going back to the same well.
He managed a semi pro team for 6 years and has now had 2 years in charge of Dortmund's reserves again playing in the semi-pro leagues. He might be good, who knows but he's done nothing of note in senior football - playing or managing

Don't know much about his personal connections but although the instinct is to compare directly to Wagner I'd be cautious; as you say, Wagner is Klopp's guy but Farke replaced Wagner several months after Tuchel arrived and I don't see that the styles will necessarily be identical. BVB do produce a hell of a lot of good people all over the club though so there's no reason to think he'd not be decent — but he's not as established as Wagner was, in my view.
