More wins to come, says Juergen Klopp

The Juergen Klopp effect began to really take hold on Saturday as Liverpool hammered mercurial Manchester City 4-1 at the Etihad Stadium to provide the Merseysiders’ new coach with his most striking Premier League win yet.

Liverpool’s buoyant German boss hailed the emphatic win as feeling “perfect” before insisting that he felt there was a lot more improvement to come from his confident side.

It was a well-deserved win, full of zest and attractive football from the visitors which left Liverpool’s Adam Lallana enthusing:

“We didn’t give them a second on the ball. Going forward we looked very dangerous, it was great fun!”

Having lost just once in eight matches since Klopp took over from Brendan Rodgers, Liverpool have moved up to ninth in the table on 20 points, eight points behind leaders Leicester City.

“It feels perfect! The game was not perfect but it was very good,” Klopp told the BBC. “We played with big passion and that’s the most important thing for us.

“The good news is that we can do better. We have quality, we could have more goals. The boys can believe now that they are stronger than many people think.

“We took our chances and made our goals. They were brilliant goals,” Klopp added, evidently purring at how intricate interplay led to collector’s items from his brilliant Brazilians Coutinho and Firmino.
