“I think Liverpool have nearly dropped out of the top four”, Redknapp told BetSafe. Three of the four goals came from high-intensity pressing: the impressive Sadio Mané’s opener, an own goal from the former Liverpool player Javier Mascherano that doubled the lead, and Divock Origi’s effort.
“It is the best decision he ever made”. I said before the game that we had a great chance to win even though we knew it would be a hard game against top opponents. We could have played no pre-season games but we’ve played very good, less good or bad.
The German admitted that it was a poor result just one week before the start of the new Premier League season, but insists that his side are still in a good place heading into the upcoming campaign.
‘Of course, we should not lose 4-0 but it happened and we can work with it. “We played some games that were very good, others that were less good”.
The boss is convinced that despite the defeat to Liverpool his squad will arrive ready for the official start to the 2016-2017 season.
“From the beginning we saw two teams with completely different rhythms”, said Luis Enrique.
Obviously, playing on back-to-back days didn’t do Liverpool any favors (who thought of that bright idea?), and though most of Klopp’s projected starters featured in both games, they only did so for about a half each.
Klopp has said Benteke would be allowed to leave on a permanent transfer and Brazil forward Roberto Firmino is another option in the central-striker role, with Liverpool flush with attacking midfielders.
“He want make we dey attack out opponents too”. But it wasn’t our day either when it came to making mistakes.
“We will be ready for the first game next week, for sure. We’ve got a healthy-looking squad going into the season”.
However, Klopp was keen to stress that Saturday’s resounding victory over the Catalans would count for nothing when the Premier League season got back underway for his team with a trip to Arsenal, live on Sky Sports 1, a week on Sunday.
