„Liverpool“ coach Jurgen Klopp believes that even after losing on Saturday against „Burnley“, it would be foolish to buy a newcomer at the moment.
Although the „Reds“ dominated in terms of ball control, shots, and created opportunities, they failed to convert them into goals and were defeated 0-2. Nevertheless, Klopp is not inclined to change his approach and is not looking for a newcomer for the team, stating that he will definitely not panic buy.
„If one game would change my opinion, then I would be a real idiot. I know you all would buy a left-back, but a holding midfielder? Emre Can was on the bench as he had back problems, Lucas Leiva is injured, and you ask when we will see a tough tackling holding midfielder? The answer is simple - I don't know, we'll see“, the German coach stated.
The coach revealed that even after such a failure, he is able to see positive things, but emphasized that he will do everything to prevent such a result from happening again.
„We could have looked better, but I saw many good things. If you had told me last year that we would play against „Burnley“ like this, albeit imperfectly, I would have been really surprised. They couldn't defend against us the way they wanted. It wasn't a bad game, it was just an experience we didn't want. It's not a problem in defense, it's an attacking problem.
We need to be better prepared in our game creation and such mistakes should not be repeated. We are putting additional pressure on ourselves.“
