From the official site today: Klopp added: âIn an ideal world, we would not have had eight days. In our specific situation it was OK, but when you could see how many changes City could make, then I think they can deal with the situation.
âWhen I thought about the fixtures we will face and what City will face, especially with Champions League coming up plus the FA Cup, I knew it would be really tough for Pep and his boys. But then you watch the games and you think, âWow!â. Itâs pretty impressive. I donât know â they have rhythm, we had a break, what is better we shall see tonight.â
Liverpool prepared for this eveningâs fixture with a light training session at the home of rugby league club Salford Red Devils.
âIt was good, a good pitch,â said Klopp of the workout at the AJ Bell Stadium. âIt is not a long session on the morning of a game, but itâs an important one with a few set-pieces, couple of routines on the pitch, so thatâs important. We did it, so now we are here, the boys are eating and I give you an interview!â
