We got three points. That\u2019s the important thing,\u201d Klopp said, looking happy but more subdued than usual after a European win that left Liverpool second in Group A on six points after three games.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t wait for the moment when I can read newspapers again. But the criticism is completely fine. We are not over the moon about our situation,\u201d he said of the reaction to Liverpool\u2019s latest leaky performance in a 3-3 draw at home to Brighton at the weekend. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI saw tonight a team fully committed, that\u2019s what I like a lot. It was exactly what we needed tonight. A new formation, we had to change things. We had plenty of chances, imagine if we had taken more of them. Really good game. Very important.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe expected a reaction. Everyone expected a reaction. We really want to turn this into a positive and for that we need consistency. For that, you need top-class defending and we had that tonight. It worked out pretty well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2018WONDERFUL GOAL\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Right back Trent Alexander-Arnold has been particularly under fire of late for Liverpool, criticised for leaving gaps in defence as he marauds forward. <\/p>\n<p>Yet he got it all right on Tuesday, scoring a spectacular free kick to set Liverpool on the path to victory while also helping to keep a clean sheet. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe played a good game, defensively especially. And a wonderful goal, eh? I am happy that he had that,\u201d said Klopp, noting some tweaks in the formation to give Alexander-Arnold more cover when he went forward.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe take risks. We were not in the perfect moment, that\u2019s why we adjusted it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Klopp, whose team are three points behind Napoli in Group A though still in a qualifying position, said he expected a very different game when Liverpool face Rangers in Scotland next week. \u201cWe respect them a lot,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He was delighted with his front four of Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe way the boys moved up front today was extremely good,\u201d he said, saying Nunez was bound to score soon after a string of saved shots against the Scots. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cTwo set piece goals as well \u2013 I love this as it means you don\u2019t need to wait for VAR!\u201d he quipped of Alexander-Arnold\u2019s free kick and Salah\u2019s penalty.    <\/p>\n<p> (Reporting by Andrew Cawthorne; Editing by Toby Davis)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/uncategorized\/soccer-klopp-relieved-at-liverpools\/attachment\/champions-league-group-a-liverpool-v-rangers\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI9402J-BASEIMAGE.jpg\" alt=\"tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI9402J-BASEIMAGE\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/uncategorized\/soccer-klopp-relieved-at-liverpools\/attachment\/champions-league-group-a-liverpool-v-rangers-2\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI9402I-BASEIMAGE.jpg\" alt=\"tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI9402I-BASEIMAGE\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/uncategorized\/soccer-klopp-relieved-at-liverpools\/attachment\/champions-league-group-a-liverpool-v-rangers-3\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI9402K-BASEIMAGE.jpg\" alt=\"tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI9402K-BASEIMAGE\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/uncategorized\/soccer-klopp-relieved-at-liverpools\/attachment\/champions-league-group-a-liverpool-v-rangers-4\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI9402L-BASEIMAGE.jpg\" alt=\"tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI9402L-BASEIMAGE\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Andrew Cawthorne LIVERPOOL (Reuters) \u2013 Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp praised his team for riding out recent criticism of their dip in form to register a comfortable win over Rangers<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":66,"featured_media":1889503,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1673016","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_finder_url":"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/uncategorized\/soccer-klopp-relieved-at-liverpools\/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=soccer-klopp-relieved-at-liverpools","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1673016","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/66"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1673016"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1673016\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1889503"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1673016"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1673016"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1673016"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
