Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says it would be foolish to make any panic buys in the wake of Saturday’s loss to Burnley.

However the Liverpool manager was left disappointed, with Sean Dyche’s side holding themselves together and going on to win the Premier League meeting 2-0.
One particular issue has been the left-back role, with Liverpool fans unconvinced by Spaniard Alberto Moreno, leading to James Milner’s start in the position.
However, Klopp said Thursday: “Are we doing this every time someone’s performance isn’t very good then we talk about it in a press conference?”
“I think there is a lot of belief there now and a lot of fight”, he said, albeit before Saturday’s game.
Not one Liverpool player actually did well in the entire game and we would be looking at the performance of one of the new boys in the squad, Georginio Wijnaldum. We always spoke about how we can defend together differently because the situation was created two times before the penalty situation. Klopp said. “When we gave away the first goal they defended for their lives”. That’s really important that we have these different options in the box.
“If we had found the flawless fit with all the things around – it is not about money only – playing style, defending skills, offensive skills, technical things – I think you would know because we would have made a transfer”. He’s an experienced player and I don’t want to force a new position on a player.vI want players to be convinced by themselves.
The fixture will bring back good memories for full-back Stephen Ward, who scored his first Premier League goal against Liverpool at Anfield for Wolves in December 2010.
‘It’s not a defending problem, it’s an offensive problem. “Sometimes you have the kind of games that it doesn’t work, and you have to keep your confidence and look forward”.
It worked with Sam Vokes putting them a goal to the good after just two minutes.

“Usually, in a game like this, you win if you don’t make mistakes at the wrong moment but we did. We have to accept the result and carry on”. They know it already, that this is not the pass we want to play. We were really struggling for bodies that night!
