“I don’t like saying that, being Liverpool, because I’m anxious about I but no, he’ll do well”, the Scot added.
“This is a great club because of many good decisions in the past, good players, brilliant players, now we have to work in the present”. Apart from Coutinho, who gives us that star quality in terms of invention and flair, we probably don’t have the quality of other big teams, but we’re a very powerful team, and Klopp likes powerful teams.
Recent reports have suggested Klopp could try to lure Marco Reus and Ilkay Gundogan to Liverpool, but Dortmund are confident their former coach would not approach any players without previously contacting his ex-club.
The German has penned a three-year contract at Anfield and succeeds Brendan Rodgers in the hot seat.
“Liverpool are taking a massive gamble by appointing Jurgen Klopp and making him work with the Invisible Men”.
Speaking from inside the England camp, as he’s now on worldwide duty, Lallana revealed that he and a few of his Liverpool teammates had watched Klopp’s first press conference together, and were impressed with what they saw.
“If you don’t trust your manager, why have him there?”
“As yet, we don’t really know what the Brazilian is”.
“I believe it is better to have 11 players do the same thing wrong than everybody doing what they want”.
“The biggest problem is that the Premier League is one of the most hard in the world”.
“He will stress again to his players, “do not think about the next game only think about this game”, play as if there’s no tomorrow”.
