Rams boss Warne spent some time with the Liverpool manager after The Reds played host to the League One side in the Carabao Cup earlier this season - a match Klopp's side eventually won 3-2 on penalties.
But it was the conversation the two managers had after the match which left an impression on Warne, who was clearly in awe of his opposite number on the night.
