Liverpools tough fixture List

We have only tough months in the season.We have to be ready but be focused 100% on the game tomorrow night.

On facing Bayern

After being six years the dominator of the league it was clear this year would be different.To become the champion you need to have the desire of a newcomer combined with the quality of a real contender.Maybe at the start of the season they didnt have that but now they are chasing the situation.From my point of view that makes them even more dangerous.Lets enjoy the game together. We are a really strong side and that is what we have to show.Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp6

Are Liverpool and Bayern similar?

No, we had different targets at the start of the season.They were six-times in a row champion. We have maybe achieved a little bit more than expected, Bayern maybe a bit less [this season].Both are in a similar situation but there is a long way to go. We only think about the Champions League situation tomorrow night.If I wasnt involved tomorrow I would try and buy a ticket.

The importance of home advantage in the Champions League

Playing home first is not usually an advantage but we dont care.These games usually when two good teams face each other will not be decided in one game.Liverpool face another big week coming up6

We respect the competition. There are two legs to play. We will be 100% focused for both of them.Lets create a basis we can use in the second game. Its different but possible.

Liverpools recent Marbella break

You have the rhythm and keep the rhythm or have what we had and have a little break.We had to work on a lot of tactical things. We tried to give some inputs tactical and fitness work and needed the time to bring a couple of players back. We didnt think about the break really.

Klopps love for Liverpool

Very much. Much more than I could have expected because you never know.The welcome was outstanding and since then it became better and better. We grew together and developed together.Im not always in the city very much so Im not sure what people say about me but I feel it in the stadium is very positive.We are a real competitor. Its not enough but a very important step. The story so far is a nice one but not finished – yet.Jurgen Klopp with Mats Hummels at Borussia Dortmund6

On old Dortmund players Mats Hummels and Robert Lewandowski

I worked together with these boys. Two fantastic players.I have to be really thankful. Without them probably my career would not be the same. We all benefited from each other.Thats part of my life and part of my history. Well always have a lot of respect for each other.I know a lot about them. I really like them. We will try everything to, what can I say? To let them not shine.

His Dortmund career adding to the Bayern Rivalry

Only more stress because all the people wanted 600 extra interviews with German news!Its not a little bit personal or whatever.Mohamed Salah and Liverpool face Man United this weekend6

Whoever brought it up that in 2008 I had two phone calls with Bayern [about taking the managers job] I would never have said about it.Its long ago. Its a big club and it was a big competition for us in Germany when I was [Dortmund manager].

Champions League or Premier League?

Its difficult for me to answer the question but for all Liverpool fans its the Premier League. Thats clear.But for now its the Champions League and we have to do our best tomorrow. Thank God we dont have to decide that right now.We have to create an atmosphere on the pitch tomorrow and make it easier for the people.It will be outstanding tomorrow night. Its something to enjoy. Theres a lot of power involved in the atmosphere.Our crowd is really able to push us from 100% to 140%.
