Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp stressed the need for his team to
develop further this year to maintain its supremacy, after the
“Reds”, the English Premier League titleholder, finished last
season, 18 points ahead of his closest competitors.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Klopp said: “It is natural that we have
to take another step forward because the other teams will take
steps forward as well.”
He added, “It is not about being the defending champion.
We are constantly trying not to develop new challenges but to
find solutions to them before we face problems, but many of
the good things we have achieved must be repeated first and
foremost, so it is not just about changing things, but rather
finding the right approach and planning once.” Other for this season. ”
On the meeting between Liverpool and Chelsea in the league
on Sunday, Klopp said that coach Frank Lampard’s team has
competence in all positions, adding: “There are a lot of threats,
Chelsea has signed and has many good players. We suffered
a lot in front of him last season.”
He continued: “There are many good players in attack, midfield
and defense, so there is no greater threat than another, and
Chelsea as a whole is the danger.”
Liverpool, who narrowly beat Leeds United in the season opener
on Saturday, strengthened their ranks by signing Thiago
Alcantara from European champions Bayern Munich on Thursday.
