Klopp on 'intense' opening day win

Monday, August 15 2016 by SNTV
  • Reaction from Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp after the Reds beat Arsenal 4-3 at the Emirates Stadium in London on Sunday (14th August).

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Jürgen Klopp, Liverpool manager: (on the dramatic nature of the game, Liverpool's offensive abilities and their defensive frailties)

    "It's absolutely too early to talk about single players, because I have no idea at this moment about single players, because I have to make the analysis. The game was intense for all of us, we made our mistakes together and we scored wonderful goals and so, that's really important. It gives us on the one side the confidence and the knowledge that we can score goals. We knew before this game. And the other side, there is no alternative to defend(ing) together and only then you have a chance in the Premier League. 4-3 is obviously a spectacular result, but it's not a result you want to have a lot of times in a season. So, when you are good enough to score four goals, then you need to avoid... three."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Jürgen Klopp, Liverpool manager: (on soaking up pressure with the score at 4-3 and satisfaction with the win)

    "So, it was pressure but not the highest pressure from Arsenal. I cannot remember - apart from the goals - big chances, so... hard work, but deserved win at the end and it feels brilliant at the moment actually."
