Liverpool: Jürgen Klopp dubs Haaland
On Sunday, Liverpool host Manchester City at Anfield (5:30 p.m.), for one of the most anticipated shocks of this start to the season in Premier League.
Present at a press conference this Friday morning, the coach of the Reds, Jürgen Klopp, spoke about the number 1 attacking asset of the Citizens, Erling Haaland: "He is probably the best striker in the world, so we have to make sure that he doesn't get a lot of balls, ”explained the German tactician first. “That's what we're going to try. Against City, if you squeeze Haaland with too many players, you open up gaps for all the other world-class players. It doesn't make life any easier."
He then praised the work of the Skyblues in integrating the Norwegian: “He has the combination of being quite physical and technical. He knows where the offsides are, reads them well. So much to make a striker, and at City some of the best players around him are setting up goals. It's a perfect fit. As a reminder, Erling Haaland has scored 15 goals in just 9 Premier League games this season.
