Steven Gerrard won’t play for Liverpool against Southampton, jokes Klopp
“All great players can play together”.
“I think if you look at the fixtures we’ve played already, we’ve played a lot of tough teams away from home, so that’s obviously nice”, he added.
“I’m not sure what level Swansea wanted to reach before the season started but for this team I see no problem in the league”.
This isn’t the first occasion that the 28-year old has hinted that he’s looking to replace Mignolet as Liverpool’s first choice goaltender and it likely won’t be the last. “I heard as well that there was one – these sort of things are always written at the time but, no it’s not true”, Klopp was quoted as saying by the Express.
Rush believes the Belgium worldwide will get better as he gets even fitter.
“This is very important because as a Southampton team we have two opportunities to win a title”.
“We can’t ignore the last two games and we can’t ignore the next game, that’s the situation”.
The duo have scored six goals between them this season, though have only started a combined total of 11 matches.
The Merseysiders have been without the Brazil worldwide since he suffered a hamstring injury in the 4-1 win at Manchester City earlier this month.
“What’s realistic is to finish in the top four but it would be great to win a trophy for the supporters”, he said.
“We have worked hard to put a week of working into these players but unfortunately like every team you go through a difficult period”.
“If you don’t get the win here then it sort of throws that good performance (at City) away”.
Jurgen Klopp has jokingly dismissed the idea of picking Steven Gerrard for Wednesday’s Capital One Cup quarterfinal at Southampton – but has praised his influence since returning to train with Liverpool.
“Realistically it is most probably their best chance of winning a trophy but it is knowing how to do it”.
There are some serious issues with this Liverpool outfit such as the defense but in all honesty I don’t think that they will be exposed this game since their opposition is not playing amazingly well and Jurgen Klopp is an wonderful manager who will be able to adjust accordingly.
