“How can I be happy with this?”

“Not many teams will get the ball as often as Liverpool, because they have so many bodies in midfield, at times Firmino goes in there as well, so it takes concentration and focus from players to see through that and realise they’re not hurting us too much”. “Good link-up play between the two strikers, everyone knows I prefer, when I can, to play with two strikers – and it was a good press”.
“We had absolutely no luck and everybody needs to be more clinical”.
But the £25 million summer signing explained that they struggled because they “play differently” to Arsenal, whom they had beaten in their opening game the previous weekend, declaring that Burnley play “with lots of long balls” and by constantly “trying to win the second ball”.
“In my opinion, we could have avoided this situation in five or six times before and that it came to the situation where Alberto could have done better – that’s right”. I have lost a few games in my life, and I accept that I will lose a few more in the future.
“Our timing and decision-making today was not really good”.

“We should be ready in our development and these mistakes shouldn’t happen any more, but our training drills did not include us playing the ball at the wrong time [for the goals] to the opponent”.
“We made two mistakes and they scored two goals, and we didn’t create any big chances”, Wijnaldum rued, calling it “the story in the first-half”. I try to keep a level head – I know how it works, one day you can be the best player in the world, and the next you can be the worst, so I just take the good with the bad.
Overall, it was a disappointing performance from the 25-year-old and hopefully he will put in a decent performance in the upcoming games for Liverpool or he could be replaced by any other player for sure. But would you said to Jurgen’s face, David?
“I’m looking forward to battling against them in the Premier League for Burnley”.

‘But it’s the second game. “That’s cool”, Klopp said at a news conference when asked about Moreno’s display.
