According to a report on Liverpool Echo, Klopp felt that one good result does change the club’s targets. If we can get that right then we won’t be too far away.
“We all must think what will happen in the future, we have an important game on Wednesday, sometimes it happens in football to play like this”. But the idea with Klopp is to press and to be aggressive.
“It’s probably only the home form that’s let us down, but in a way that’s a pleasing thing because we know what we need to try and change”. Klopp has a lot of energy in himself and he expresses them on the field and he expects his team to do the same. “It shows the quality we do have”. Lucas may have started the campaign out of ex-manager Brendan Rodgers’ squad but the former centre-back says the Brazilian midfielder is enjoying a new lease of life at Anfield. They stand ninth, eight points behind the leaders, Leicester. The title may well be beyond Liverpool but the Champions League is surely a realistic possibility.
“We have qualified for the last two years”.
“They are not in their best moment here now in domestic football but I am sure we will find a team who wants to qualify first in the group”.
Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel, who scored Liverpool’s fourth against City, said Klopp had made a major impact at the club already.
Firmino was playing in the most advanced attacking role while two notable out-and-out strikers, fit-again Daniel Sturridge and Christian Benteke, were on the bench. It was a decision I made. He and his compatriot Firmino appear likely to create something for one another almost every time they’re on the ball. Him and [Philippe Coutinho] combined well and he was top class.
City’s defeat was their heaviest at home since their move to the Etihad Stadium in August 2003 and dropped them from top of the Premier League to third.

“I think we didn’t prepare – we lost so many balls in attack it was impossible to create chances, we conceded four goals and could have conceded at least three or four more”. He’s always there at the side of the pitch, I love his enthusiasm, it’s like he goes on the pitch with them – he’s like a twelfth man.
