Klopp before the game vs Leicester: `There is no tension!`
The Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said he isn`t feeling the pressure after three consecutive matches advised by
partners of live football games in which his team failed to reach victory. The Merseysiders were defeated by Manchester City with 0:5, and then had two consecutive draws - against Sevilla (2:2) and Burnley (1:1). Now the Reds will have two away games against Leicester. The first one is tomorrow at the tournament for the Cup of the League, as Klopp revealed today the names of three of the titulars: Danny Ward, Marko Grujic and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
`I am not sure there is any pressure on us. At least I don`t feel like that. Rather I see an opportunity, a chance to do something really good. The biggest tension is what you make by yourself. I don`t know if the world is ready for such a crazy decision to start with the third different goalie to start the season, but Danny Ward will watch tomorrow. We have many players who are in a good shape, but that have not played. Such is the case for example with Marko Grujic. He made a huge step in his development. For Alex, that would also be a fantastic opportunity. Now you have three names from the starting line!`, said Klopp, who added that Joe Gomez will begin in the center of defense, in the event that Dejan Lovren is not ready. John Flanagan will also be a part of the group for tomorrow`s match.
