‘We Can Do Better’ - Klopp Insists Despite Liverpool Win Against Leeds United

‘We Can Do Better’ - Klopp Insists Despite Liverpool Win Against Leeds United

English champions Liverpool made it past newly-promoted Leeds United in a seven-goal thriller on Saturday at Anfield that ended 4-3, and Jurgen Klopp has urged his team to improve despite hailing Marcelo Bielsa’s men.

Klopp’s men found themselves in front three times but were pegged back by a spirited Leeds side.

Speaking to the media after the game, the German manager reflected on his side’s display against the Peacocks and insists the visitors forced them to make mistakes.

Klopp also posited that Leeds will have a good season if they keep this momentum in the English topflight.

“What a game, what an opponent, what a performance from both teams. A proper spectacle, I loved that,” the former Borussia Dortmund manager said.

"It is pretty rare you see that many goals in a game, we have left space for improvement in our defending but that is not unusual for a first game. Our players have played a few days ago for their countries so it is possible.

"The opponent forced us to make mistakes, we can do better, we will do better but I loved a lot about the game against a well-organised, passionate side like Leeds. We used our skills to cause them problems, we could have scored more and in the end we used set-pieces which is fine by me.

"It is not like riding a bike, you can lose something in pre-season and it takes time to all come together again. I am really positive about this game. Leeds will have a good season if they can keep up that intensity and they did it in the Championship with more games so why not?"

Next up for Klopp and Liverpool is a visit to Stamford Bridge to face old foes Chelsea.
