The post Jurgen Klopp: Christian Benteke Better Suited To Crystal Palace Than Liverpool appeared first on 360Nobs.com.
After sitting out midweek, the normal back four will be all ready to go against Palace.
18′ – GOAL! Crystal Palace 1-1 Liverpool: A horror show from Lovren who slices a clearance straight to James McArthur and he heads over a stranded Karius.
Lovren, visibly affected by the mistake, made amends for his error soon enough when he out-muscled his marker to meet Coutinho’s corner with a thumping header.
Liverpool: Karius (7), Clyne (8), Lovren (7), Matip (8), Moreno (7), Henderson (7), Can (7), Lallana (8), Coutinho (9), Mane (8), Firmino (8). They were left to rue some loose defensive work that only illustrated why it has been so long – 15 league games – since a clean sheet.
Gerrard left Anfield to join LA Galaxy a year ago, having inspired Champions League and FA Cup wins, but failed to claim a Premier League winners’ medal.
“I thought that was a really interesting battle because that’s an area Liverpool have not been as strong in, so I thought they played well today”. Zaha is probably the player I rate highest in the Palace team, and he would demolish Alberto Moreno.
“I have nothing bad to say about him”, he added. We are focused to have a good season, our group is very close and are aware of what lies ahead.
Since Jurgen Klopp arrived Anfield, Liverpool stopped being a one man club due to the attacking talents all across the field and that made Giggs beleive Liverpool are now ready to be premier league champions. They will be looking for the second league win at Selhurt Park against Liverpool, who are enjoying a great start to the season.
Liverpool took control of the game as they began to retain possession and started to push for a fifth goal of the game to try to ensure there was no way for Palace to repeat one of their famous comebacks on the visitors. The Reds’ fine run of form has got former Manchester United player and interim manager, Ryan Giggs anxious as the Welshman sees this season as a special one for Liverpool.
Christian Benteke can provide some threat to Liverpool, his former club this weekend.
The Liverpool manager jokingly apologised for the “boring performance” of his team before declaring: “Of course, it was all good”. It makes sense, I think it is just natural human reaction.
Asked to comment about Coutinho, he smiled: “Good football player”.
Pardew told BT Sport: “It was too open at times for us and we gifted possession a little bit too much to Liverpool“.
Palace fans were infuriated after the first goal when neither the referee nor his assistant called for offside on Emre Can’s shot.
