Klopp also spoke out about facing Real Madrid in this year’s Champions League final: “When we lost that [2018] final, my favourite solution would have been let’s play the final against Real Madrid the next year… “It seems to be our destiny. But if you knock out PSG, Chelsea, Man City, you deserve to be in the final.”

Finally, Klopp had this to say on Roberto Firmino:
JK on Firmino “He’s back in training so now we have to decide. It might be possible and make more sense for him to train through the weekend and make big step for Tuesday

Liverpool vs Tottenham
Liverpool’s face off with Tottenham this coming Saturday in a late Premier League kick-off.
The clash is of course a huge one for the Merseysiders, with any sort of slip up expected to cost them a shot at the Premier League title.
Liverpool head into the weekend’s action sat 2nd in the Premier League, one point adrift of Manchester City with four league games left to play.
As for Tottenham, they put an end to their mini rut by smashing Leicester City 3-1 last time out.
Elsewhere, Manchester City are due to take on Newcastle United on Sunday the 8th of May, with the Magpies, much like they were vs Liverpool, expected to prove a tough nut to crack.
