Jurgen Klopp insists the Reds will need the help of the Anfield army to defeat Manchester United on Sunday following their 2-0 win over Wolves in the Premier League.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes his side will need to put on another brilliant performance when they host the inform Manchester United on Sunday.
Liverpool added another three points to their Premier League points at Anfield on Wednesday night as second-half goals from Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah saw off the visitors.
The Reds will host their long time rival in the Premier League this weekend, though Klopp admits it will be a difficult game but the German insists the atmosphere at Anfield can help.
Speaking with the media after the Reds victory over Wolves, Klopp said: “I think Man United is the team in form in the moment, maybe together with Arsenal and City are [also] doing well.”
Manchester United hosted West Ham in the FA Cup game and the Red Devils manager Erik Ten Hag made six changes in the line up of the game.
“The teams up there are all in a pretty good moment and I didn’t see yet the line-up [for United’s Emirates FA Cup game with West Ham United] but maybe they changed quite a few? That means some of them will be a bit fresher than us, but it’s a home game and it’s Anfield,” Klopp added.
“I thought Anfield proved a point tonight again, it was super, super-enjoyable. It felt like a proper unit, we were all together – I loved that. That’s what we need again on Sunday, but of course it will be difficult. Again, if you face United at the weekend whichever result you’ve had before, either way you have to strike back or whatever, but now we have to use it for our general situation. We have to build on the performance and on the result – and we try everything to do exactly that.”
