Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has admitted he is wary of six Manchester United players, including wantaway star Paul Pogba. The Reds host United on Tuesday night, knowing a win will take them above Manchester City in the Premier League table.
While Klopp’s men are still in the hunt for a historic quadruple of trophy wins, United have endured a dreadful campaign. Even so, Klopp has made it clear that he still fears Red Devils stars Pogba, Jadon Sancho, Bruno Fernandes, Anthony Elanga, Marcus Rashford and Cristiano Ronaldo.
“We don’t face the team who has problems, we face Manchester United. And if I go through the line-up that could play, the goalkeeper is world class, the last line (defence) absolute top, then (in midfield) I’m not sure if McTominay and Fred can play and it might be Pogba and Matic,” he said.
“If you let Pogba play, and he plays through you and behind you and all these kind of things – then up front you can choose from Sancho, Fernandes, Elanga or Rashford, and a guy who scored his 60th hat-trick. That’s what we have to prepare for, not what happened last week or something like that.”
