Klopp on ‘important’ win and ‘sh*t hamstrings’
“If we have more injuries – and we have enough injuries – we have to think about it. If not, we have to work with the players we have”.

Neither Riyad Mahrez nor Jamie Vardy finished the match, with an admission from the manager that the former was suffering from fatigue, while the latter had been playing through a bout of illness.
“Then, we just need to wait to score to win”.
Leicester will look to respond at home to Manchester City on Tuesday, while Liverpool is at Sunderland on Wednesday.
It was not the result that anxious and perplexed Ranieri tonight, but this notable lack of a spark.
Ranieri has recalled how taking a trip to the south of Spain to watch Klopp and his Borussia Dortmund team training during a winter break helped to revitalise his spirit and give him the fight we have seen in Leicester’s historic start to the season. Despite their first away loss of the season, the Foxes remain top, but will be looking for a response in their next fixture.
TOTTENHAM EYES TOP FOUR: With three games coming in quick succession, Tottenham has an opportunity to establish itself in the top four of the Premier League. Three minutes later he did connect, finding space at the top of the box, then stretching to first-time the feed from Roberto Firmino past Schmeichel’s dive to his left-hand post. Klopp set up with Jordan Henderson and Emre Can at the root of a 4-2-3-1, leaving out defensive midfielder Lucas Leiva in favor for a more attacking approach.
And yet, Benteke’s overall performance left plenty to be desired. Andrej Kramaric replaced Mahrez 12 minutes later.
Benteke – who came off the bench for the injured Divock Origi – missed a glorious chance for a second in the closing moments as he failed to convert from close range with Kasper Schmeichel out of his goal, but Klopp was nonetheless thrilled with his impact.
However, the Belgian forward picked up an injury in the win and Klopp is now hoping the 20-year-old is not facing a lengthy sideline spell.
In fairness to the £32.5m striker, he has only started two consecutive games under Klopp which is a sequence hardly allowing him to find his rhythm and range.
Liverpool downed leaders Leicester courtesy of Christian Benteke’s lone goal.
24′ – CHANCE! Origi gets the better of Morgan in a wide position and he bursts into the penalty area but can’t beat the goalkeeper from a tight angle.
