So as a forward, I really enjoy watching these three or four players attack, score goals and create chances. It’s really exciting,” Torres said, who also showed his admiration for the work of coach Jurgen Klopp.
“It’s amazing. From the outside you can see all the work that the club is doing and Jürgen too. The level of the team is huge, great. You can see that people are still enjoying it. I think Jürgen understood from day one the passion of the club. fans and joined everything to create a great team, “added Torres.
