Jurgen Klopp issues injury updates on Lovren and Gomez. Press Conference

Liverpool are aiming to return to winning ways and reclaim top spot after their stalemate with Everton, while Burnley are seeking to avoid a third a straight defeat. Oxlade-Chamberlain playing for U23s Ox is a very smart boy and it is clear that he needs some sessions to prepare himself for a game and he wanted these games as well. These games we will see for sure. It looks very positive but it was a long time he was out so we need to be sensible but we think the right time is now. Derby is a tough opponent. The previous game against Everton he could have played but I wasn’t sure about the intensity but now he is ready and we’ll let him start. We are excited of course. Manchester City being ahead and Burnley Luckily we don’t have to change much. The plan is still to win football games and that is difficult enough. We will know the City result before we start our game but we won’t make a big fuss about it because we a re just fighting for the top spot in the league and it’s important to be optimistic and excited. Our only problem this week is Burnley and that’s enough - we have to be really good to beat this team, Dyche is doing an amazing job perhaps with not the best circumstances in the league. We have prepared for the fact it will be tough. Mo goalscoring record If you have chances in a game you want to score but as a manager I’m more than used to players not scoring all the time. Mo has an unbelievable scoring record and that is a part of why we are in the position we’re in now. As long as we keep creating chances that’s fine. Injury updates Dejan trained yesterday completely normally for the first time. Joe is now running with 100% of his weight and that looks good. Most of the problems will be sorted probably after the international break but Dejan we have to see because he’s been out for a while. He is not injured anymore but how fit he is we need to say. Rhian is in a really good way and a place where Ox was three weeks ago probably. Milly everything heals quicker but still three days to go, he trained yesterday with the rehab coach and if you asked him he will say he is ready. Jordan is fine. Manager regrets after fallout situations such as with Dyche We are all human beings and we react in the moment. I make mistakes in my life and I regret them. I have no idea what he said after the game. We are all under different circumstances and that’s all but I don’t think there is anything to regret and I have no bad feelings about this. Training tempo with nine games left and Champions League on horizon We have had a good training week and we are able to do a lot of things. If you have time to train you always have to work hard and hopefully we can put these things onto the pitch. We can do a lot today as well and that’s very important. You can’t play softly during the week and hope players don’t get injured we have to work on things to improve. The most intense sessions is always the game and we will be prepared for that. Burnley early form They are so consistent in what they are doing. I had a similar situation at Mainz when we were challenging in Europe for the first time and lost the first 5 games of the Bundesliga. We were not used to it. Burnely are very physical, quick transitions and counter attacks but when they had to travel and play Thursday, Sunday, Thursday, Sunday it takes time. Now they are going for it like we all are and that gets my respect. Burnley threat The game for us at Turf Moor is not important as it was three months ago. When they play five at the back it doesn’t work out 100% if I am correct so we expect 4-4-2. Barnes is good in the air and gets in behind and they are good on the wings. Crosses we should expect. They also don’t have majority of possession in games so we need to be creative and patient. It will be difficult - they really fight and are highly motivated. When you watch their last three or four games you give respect - they beat Tottenham. I’m sure they’re looking forward to this game. Kick-off time problem We always have this question about when we have a 12 noon kick off. We don’t have issues with this anymore. We need atmosphere at 12 o’clock. If you have a ticket, go to bed at 10pm latest, don’t drink and be on your toes from the first to the last second.
