Premier League: Saka puts Arsenal in front against title rivals Liverpool
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp speaking to Sky Sports about the death of Conor Bradley’s father: “I think the best way to be now is around his family and that is where we have sent him.
“Very sad news and I told him to take his time, that is clear. We will see what the next days bring.”
On Dominik Szoboszlai: “Dom fell in the same area where he was injured before, we had a look at it and there was no chance he could be involved in this game and we cannot take any risks.”
On Darwin Nunez being on the bench: “Nothing to do with intensity in the games we have.
“It is how we start and how we use the full power of the boys. Darwin from the bench is a good thing to have as well.
“It is just for this game how we thought it made sense. But we really think when he comes on he can change the game and have a real impact.”
On Arsenal: “A well set-up team quality in all departments and really well coached.
“The wings are a super threat, we have to make sure we get that done.
“Defensively they are strong from the physical point of view and tactically a good football team always asks questions and we have to make sure we ask more questions.
“That is the idea today, we played an incredible game a few days ago. Is that possible away from home? I would like to give it a try.
“Now we have just played them recently, I heard Mikel say ‘we have to do the same’.
“We have to play better, the second game at home was okay and the game here there was a lot of passion in the cup game, but they were better for long periods but we scored the goals.”
