Jurgen Klopp spoke after the friendly against Ahtletic Club ended in a 1-1 draw. The worst news for the Reds was Robertson's injury, but the German coach was optimistic that he will have the Scotland full-back back soon. "He has to get a scan and then we will know more".
Klopp was happy with his team's performance. "I think for 50 or 55 minutes we saw a top game from my team". And also on the importance of having a crowd at Anfield: "They were obviously inspired by the crowd. Having 42k people back in the stadium or however many were here".
Liverpool, with the match against Osasuna in honour of Michael Robinson still to come, have completed a pre-season with plenty of games. On 14th August they kick off the Premiership against Norwich City.
