The Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp thinks Chelsea`s loss on Wednesday was the best way to prepare his team for tomorrow`s visit to Stamford Bridge in the crucial league match of the Premier League`s seventh round. The German, however, disagreed with the treatment that Anfield`s defeat could eventually have a positive effect on the team in view of the battles in the Premier League and the Champions League. This is going to be a heavy game for both teams, a very important match, the best preparation for tomorrow`s clash was the Wednesday match, the players will be different, but we will have taken the lesson. we use the information we received from the previous match.
'We want to win all the tournaments we participate in, so at the moment I do not see any positives of dropping out for the cup If I or Sarri had used only kids in this match, it was going to be fun, but that was a real clash for the cup and the two teamsthey showed how much they want to win. I do not think the difference can be five points if we can win, it`s nothing, there are 31 games via soccer livescore to the end.`, said Klopp.
The German added that it is not yet clear whether the Merseyside defense leader Virgil van Dijk will be ready for tomorrow`s derby. The Dutchman suffered an injury in the Southampton match last weekend and has not trained the team since then. 'Virgil is a world-class player, and when he can not use a footballer, it`s not good. Dejan Lovren played for the first time in 10 weeks, and for most of the time he could not even train. Virgil is ready to play, if not, we have other options, we can play it and it`s him, but we prefer him to be in the squad.'
