Oliver Kahn speaks out on Liverpool matches

Ex-Bayern Munich goalkeeper Oliver Kahn has spoken out on upcoming clash between Bundesliga champions and Liverpool in Champions League’s round of 16. “For FC Bayern this is absolutely perfect. This is what they need. They want to challenge the best and in Bundesliga they have suffered enough over the last months." he told Goal and DAZN “Bayern always has the quality to win the Champions League. Nevertheless Jurgen Klopp reached the final with Liverpool last season. They have many good and quick players for Klopp's system with high pressing and quick transition. It is no coincidence they're leaders in the Premier League. That is one of the toughest opponents for Bayern.” Kahn has also mentioned favourites of this season in UCL. “PSG is the team that should have learned the most over the last years. “But to win the Champions League you need more than just a squad that is worth 1.5 billion. You need to have that experience it takes to win this trophy in the end. And the players must be in their best shape when it is the most important. “We have seen it with Bayern under Pep Guardiola - they played fantastic football, but in the semi-finals it was over. Similar to PSG. If they learned from it, they should be ready.” “And Juventus. A very strong team in defence with many players that make you uncomfortable to play against. And they have [Cristiano] Ronaldo, who brought a special atmosphere to this club. His presence alone lifts the other players. “Of course we have to mention Barcelona. I don't think Real Madrid can do it again. If they win it for the fourth time in a row I'd be speechless. “Bayern has proved they are capable of anything in the Champions League. But of course that depends now on the matches against Liverpool.” he added.
