‘We did good stuff in the rest’: Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp steps in to defend win-less Liverpool

Jurgen Klopp has admitted that Liverpool could re-enter the transfer market before the window shuts at the end of the month.

The Reds have stuttered at the start of this season having drawn two games before their 2-1 defeat to rivals Manchester United on Monday.

Klopp admitted that despite the tough start, his side are still producing good moments in the games that they have played so far.

He said: ‘I know how it sounds but we should have won this game if we did little things better, so now we have to find out.

‘The team we lined up with was more than good enough to play a top game. I want to fight through this, players come back and we’ll get better results.

‘In one of 4 games we didn’t perform – Fulham. We did other good stuff [in the rest] and now it is Bournemouth, I don’t take anything for granted.

‘I want to be the one team no-one wants to play against again. That’s the plan for tomorrow.’

Liverpool are preparing to take on newly-promoted Bournemouth on Saturday as they look for their first win of the season.

It could be the last time that the Liverpool squad stays in its current state as the German manager also admitted that the club could re-enter the transfer market before the window shuts at the end of the month.

The Reds have already signed striker Darwin Nunez, Calvin Ramsey and Fabio Carvalho this summer.

He said: ‘We are working constantly on these things. Sometimes it’s expensive, sometimes not the right player, but we’re working. If something will happen or not, I don’t know.

‘I am in support of this team but my main job is to put things right. I can learn a lot in my life when things haven’t gone well.

‘Not my fave situation but I like this part of the job. We need to find a perfect way to fight the outside world again.’

Klopp also gave an update on the squad’s current injuries, revealing that there were no new concerns in the team.

He said: ‘Nobody for the weekend. But after that, Joel [Matip], Curtis [Jones] , Thiago [Alcântara] is not far away, Diogo [Jota] is getting closer, Caoimh will be in training next week as well.

‘Don’t think anybody will be ready for tomorrow.’
