Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp names the central area the club needs to improve moving forward.
After failing to qualify for the Champions League last season, the German manager thinks that the Reds must considerably refine their defense. In addition to coming short in the top four, Liverpool didn't win any trophy either, marking the season a disappointing one.
"From the first day we have been back for pre-season, I’ve tried to make really clear our defending has to be at a completely different level to last season. We had better do that or we will have real problems.” emphasized Klopp via Sportskeeda.
Last season, the Reds' defenders struggled to perform at their best, with players like Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold facing significant criticism for their below-par displays in various competitions.
Liverpool ended the season 22 points behind the league champions, Manchester City, and will undoubtedly aim to make significant improvements in the upcoming season, with the hope of challenging for the title.
