Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has responded to claims from Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer that now is the best time to play the Reds.
The two old foes go head-to-head this weekend at Anfield with both in the Premier League title race this season.
Indeed, United are currently three points clear of the current champions and will be looking to end the Reds’ long unbeaten run at home in the top flight.
With a number of defensive issues to contend with, Solskjaer has remarked that now is the best time to play Liverpool, which has drawn a bit of a cheeky response from Jurgen Klopp.
As quoted by the Mirror, the German said:
“I know Ole said that this is the best moment to play against Liverpool… yeah? Let’s see.”
ANFIELD WATCH VERDICT
There are always a few barbs sent between the two camps when this fixture rolls around and all you can do as a player is go out there and get the result, nothing else matters then.
Of course, Liverpool have had a bit of a blip form-wise and with injuries but still have great quality and will be eager to show their biggest rivals that they are still more than ready for the fight this season.
It promises to be a huge game on Sunday afternoon.
