“We have to do it and that was everything that we did when we played calm football”.
The Reds have had troubles early in their campaign as they have managed only four points from three games and are placed 11th in the Premier League table.
With the majority of fans behind both goals wearing red, it was felt the previous coloured netting wasn’t as striking to the eye as white while in the thick of the action on the pitch.
Anfield was rocking as the team played with the type of swagger Jurgen Klopp had demanded of his players in order to inject some life into the now 54,000-capacity stadium.
“The history we’ve had of finding players like Mane, I’m talking about a Torres or even a Suarez”, he told LFC TV’s Preview Show (H/T Inside Futbol). It would be really nice if you could stop please!
“We’ve had two weeks now and I hear a little bit of doubt in your questions”, said Klopp. That’s me. It’s very nice, thank you very much. It’s nice but not necessary. It makes sense after a long break you think about how you can get match time and that is hard here because the other players are fit and hopefully stay fit. This is a home game for Liverpool and it’s one you won’t want to miss a moment of so be sure to tune in!
“Our squad was not too small, not too big, but we found a few really good young players in this pre-season where it was like “wow”.
Fuchs went as far to say that Liverpool “look a very strong team this season” showing that the club are becoming respected among the league under Klopp’s direction.
Liverpool were unplayable at times and a stylish move resulted in Mane doubling their lead, only for a Lucas Leiva – deputising in defence for the injured Dejan Lovren – gaffe to tee up Jamie Vardy to half the arrears before the break. “They’ve got pace to burn on the wings and they cut inside a lot, so it’s very hard to defend against”.
