Jurgen Klopp demands improvement upfront from Liverpool

It means changes will be kept to a minimum for tonight’s EFL Cup at Sky Bet Championship side Burton, leaving some players frustrated.

“[We’ve got to] move on quickly – stick to what we’re doing, don’t get too down”.

Sunderland have turned down the chance to sign Liverpool’s Mamadou Sakho on loan, according to reports from the Daily Mail.

In turn, he’ll put out a strong team as this will be a good chance to get back to winning ways, and as shown previous year, he enjoys a cup run and will want to replicate that same success this season.

A disappointing weekend for Klopp, in which Liverpool seems to be caught in the eternal loop of “one step forward, two steps back”, was illustrated by their deteriorating defensive display against Burnley. “But then we have to use our skills in the most decisive area”.

However, the unusual thing is that Jurgen Klopp has clearly mentioned that his team needs offensive players or more attacking mindset.

The Reds are licking their wounds after their 2-0 humbling at Burnley on Saturday and Jurgen Klopp will be keen for his side to bounce back with a win at the Pirelli Stadium. “He is a really good player with all you need when he is fit”.

We are very professional, very clear and always working. We had so many shots from outside [the box] and sometimes you have to try but it looked too early and kind of desperate. “There is no pressure in this moment, it is more a chance to bring the Liverpool train in the right direction and that is what we want to do”.

The Brewers have scored 12 goals in five games this season by going after teams and Josh said: “I fully expect them to play the same way”.

There will be some changes, but they are likely to include summers signings such as Joel Matip and Marko Grujic. That pressing game is how they play, and we tend to play quite similar.

Klopp wants an immediate response to the 2-0 loss at Turf Moor, but he again baulked at suggestions he should react by spending.

“I really wait for the day when finally the transfer window closes, because I can’t believe how obsessed you all are with this”, Klopp told reporters at Melwood on Monday.

“I understand after Arsenal, it was far away from being a flawless game and everybody said we scored four, so obviously we can score goals, but we conceded three, so obviously we have a defensive problem”.

“As I said before, until 31 August, anything is possible because anything can happen”, he added.
