Press conference: Jurgen Klopp on Ancelotti's Everton, Salah, injuries and more

Liverpool will be preparing to play an away game against Everton on Saturday. The Reds suffered a 7-2 defeat to Aston Villa before going to an international break. Ahead of the game, Jurgen Klopp gave a press conference where he spoke out on international break, previous Merseyside derbies, Mohamed Salah and more. On his previous Merseyside derbies "I've lost enough derbies to know how it feels, I don't need that. All the game were difficult and we have to play. Built up like crazy. We were always in the games and that is what I am most concerned about. We have always respected Everton, for good reason." On international break "I don't like to answer this question because it sounds like I moan about something I have no control over. "If you're a serious journalist, write a piece about it." On Ancelotti's Everton "They did some good business and Carlo is a sensational manager. It was clear if he has time to build something and resources to build something, that is what he will do. "The team look really, really good. I'd like to say something different. "A lot of teams made good business in this window and they will all improve." On derby record "Ten years for them, long may it continue from my point but we've never once thought about it. We've never had that in our mind. Hardest work for us tomorrow and we will be ready." On Salah "Very impressed. He scored twice v Villa but he would like to score in other games when we win. Overall, he's been really good so far. Complete. Involved, a proper option and still sharp finishing." On covid testing and team selection for 12.30pm KO "Both teams are in the same situation. We both had players away, it is fair. When it was decided, there was never a triple-header. "We make a decision and sometimes we have to overthink it again. Most of the FAs were serious on the testing programmes. We brought most back on private planes. "We wait for the results but we expect them to all be negative." On injuries "Very, very positive with Alisson. It looks really good. I don't have a time-frame. "Naby won't be ready. Oxlade is long-term. Everyone get back healthy from internationals." On Mane and Thiago returning from coronavirus "They've had five or six days in training I will say. He assess every day. "We measure if they are more fatigued than normal. They look really good. We would never risk anyone. "The boys are ready." source - LiverpoolECHO Join us on Telegram
