Liverpool boss Klopp in the dark over Sturridge fitness
Redknapp believes that at least one of the big-spenders this summer will miss out on a top-four place, claiming that Liverpool are the most likely to miss out. It’s because of a few things that will happen in the next few days or few weeks, I don’t know.
“We will be ready for the first game next week, for sure, but if Arsenal was the best game of the season for us, there would be something wrong with the season”, he said.
“We didn’t think before the game we were on a level with Barcelona and we don’t think now we are on a higher level than them”, Klopp said. We are ambitious, we want to win as many games as possible, then we will see at the end. “But I was never anxious about him settling in”, added the England worldwide. He could have had a goal against AC Milan (in the United States) but it didn’t matter.
“I don’t have a silly team, I don’t have to tell them that’s how it works”.
“Hopefully tomorrow different players play like we did today”.
‘He can go down the outside, he’s got a goal in his locker like he produced against Barcelona.
Despite Liverpool’s impressive and dynamic showing in London, manager Klopp says that the result offers little indication of what Liverpool can achieve this season.
Grujic looked to have suffered a worrying ankle injury, and was replaced by Danny Ings, but speaking to LFCTV after the game, Klopp confirmed that it was “nothing serious”.
“So we have to keep our eyes open – that’s absolutely clear and we will do this”.
“So it was nice to get our reward and take the chances that came our way”. “He will be a real threat for us up front this season”. “We were well aware this was going to be hard”. We can not decide the whole season in one game. If we’d have lost, life would have gone on.
Liverpool ran out victors against the La Liga champions in an encouraging display a week before the Premier League season kicks off.
Jurgen Klopp thinks Liverpool can still get better after his side drubbed Barcelona 4-0 in a friendly at Wembley.
Yet the manager remains uncomfortable with his side being labelled exclusively as a high pressing team.
