What they said
Jurgen Klopp appeared on Monday Night Football this week - and dissected all things Red.
But here is his verdict on the latest Liverpool team: "We are a good football side but we have to improve.
"Not just in set-pieces, but a lot of things. We did well against Hull and now Swansea is the next challenge and it is a big challenge.
"It feels good at the moment, it is better that we are optimistic, but nothing has happened really.
"Football is, on good days, a nice and simple game and on bad days, you can't find a solution. That is what makes it so interesting."
