Klopp: “Postecoglou is an excellent coach – We don’t need a £200m budget”

by

For the excellent work done by Angelos Postecoglou, spoke, among other things, at the press conference about Tottenham-Liverpool (30/9, 19:30).

The German coach referred both to “Spurs” and to the agreement made by FSG (the team’s owning company), which sold several shares for a large consideration.

What Klopp said in detail:

It’s a really strong test. We have not played an easy match so far, the away games against Newcastle and Chelsea were difficult. Tottenham are also doing well and Angelos (s.s. Postecoglou) seems to belong to the top.

I can’t wait to meet him. I’m pretty sure everyone, seeing how Chelsea played, realized how good a manager he is. I think Tottenham wanted to play attacking football and in a year that Kane is leaving the club, he is doing very well.

They are a team that fascinates you when you see them and the game between us will be a real test for both teams. Tottenham are not playing in Europe at all this year, neither are Chelsea.

They are two world-class teams who have a full week to prepare for their games and that is a huge advantage for them. So to get into the Champions League is a huge task this year because there are these huge and restful beasts.

Both teams are playing football and that’s good news because in recent years when you’ve played with Tottenham, you’ve had one of the best counter-attacking teams in the world against you. Now we have in front of us a team that has in mind possession of the ball and how to create.

I know that Postecoglou is a top coach and they will have spent enough time to cause us problems. We hope to be quite well prepared for this.

For the FSG deal, if someone comes and helps us, that’s definitely good. It’s not like we need to have a £200m budget to spend on the team. What is certain is that the money that will come in will be put to good use.”
