After being eliminated from the continental tournament at the hands of Real Madrid, the Reds aim their guns at Leeds de Bielsa in the Premier.
Jurgen Klopp spoke at a press conference in the preview of Sunday’s game against Leeds and recognized that Liverpool is “under pressure” in its quest to classify the Champions League next season.
“Yes, we are under pressure, as everyone can imagine, in the sense that we want to finish in the top four, but we don’t know if we will make it. But we have seven games ahead and we will try,” said the German coach.
And he added: “There are two things in football that are important: one is performance, the other is results. We won the last three Premier League games, and in the Champions League we lost one and drew the other. The only game The bad thing we played was the one we lost (3-1 to Real Madrid), everyone else was good or better, so that’s what we have to keep doing: playing our best football. “
In relation to the match against Marcelo Bielsa’s team, Klopp analyzed: “When you think of Leeds, it’s like, ‘It’s uncomfortable, you have to go and do this and this and this’, exactly the same thing that Leeds should think about us:’ My God, how do we defend that? ‘
“We see the situation in which we find ourselves and we see it in a positive way, to be honest. We are close, we have to win our games to put pressure on the other teams,” he closed.
