JURGEN KLOPP WANTS Liverpool to play with โmore fun in their eyesโ when they take on Tottenham at White Hart Lane on Saturday.
The former Borussia Dortmund boss will take charge of his first Premier League game against Mauricio Pochettinoโs side, with the visitors looking to secure only a fourth top-flight win of the season.
Klopp says he understands the pressure of the top job at Anfield but has called on his players to enjoy their football again in order to recapture their best form.
โThe most important thing is to train as often and as long as itโs possible to do, and not think about expectations from outside. Iโm not interested in them,โ he said on Thursday.
โThe pressure I make for myself is big enough โ I donโt need anyone else to tell me I have to be successful. I know that.
โIf I say we have to make a restart, we have to start new. So Iโm not interested in the faults of a few weeks ago, Iโm only thinking about making things stable.
We have to be active, ready for work, ready to enjoy the game. Weโre playing against a very, very good Premier League team. They look fine-tuned, maybe they have some problems with injuries or other things but itโs a good team.
โI know how I want to play. But in the end, itโs only football. All these guys are able to play real good football, itโs the reason theyโre here. Now we have to open our chest and run, fight, shoot, defend together, attack together, like it looks like in your best dream.
โThatโs what I expect, that we can see that we have worked together. I want to see more bravery, more fun in their eyes, I want to see that they like what they do.โ
I just love seeing Brits knocked out
@Succulent Goujons: thatโs all well and good, but sheโs an Aussie ;) lol
