Wolves boss Bruno Lage: Liverpool NOT best in the world | OneFootball

Wolves boss Bruno Lage insists today's opponents Liverpool aren't the best in the world.

However, the Reds are regarded as among the top five, insists Wolves' manager.

"I don't know if they are the best in the world, but they are among the best three or five, for sure," said Lage. "The coach is there, he knows the system, the players are there, they know how to play, they always play with great intensity.

"It's very difficult to play against Liverpool but I think we have our chances and that's why I'm proud, especially for my players, how we've made it to these 14 games so far. That's what makes me happy and confident for tomorrow."

On Mohamed Salah, he continued: "Whether he's the fittest or not, he's a top player. Not just what he's been doing this year, but over the years, it's very difficult to play against him. He's very fast, he's very intelligent, he finds the right spaces, so we have to be on the lookout for him.

"When you look for the three strikers, it could be him, Mané, Jota or Firmino, they know how to play together and will create a lot of problems for sure, but we'll be ready because we also have our strategy of making trouble for them."
