However whereas the media have been keen to attract comparisons to an analogous process that was required towards Barcelona, Klopp was very proof against disclosing how he’ll method his crew speak.
He did, nevertheless, refer again to his well-known quote from the eve of that match in 2019, which went like this: “If we will do it, fantastic. If we will’t do it, let’s fail in probably the most lovely approach.”
And that message stays true forward of what might be his ultimate European sport at Liverpool.
On his crew speak, Klopp stated: “I normally don’t put together these items, particularly not a day earlier than or 4 years earlier than – what I’ll say to the boys I’ll take into consideration tomorrow.

“I stated it already, we need to win the sport. But when we need to win, we higher play good, and in case you play good we have now an opportunity to win it. Then we are going to see.
“Instantly after the sport [last week] everybody within the stadium at Liverpool, supporters, Atalanta, and our workers thought that’s it, however since then I don’t suppose all people thinks it’s already determined.
“We’re right here and we may be good, let’s see what we will placed on the pitch tomorrow, however my crew assembly is not going to occur in entrance of the world within the press convention.
“If we win, the gamers will discover a cause to inform the world what I stated, and if we lose, nobody will need to hear what I stated.”
Let’s hope we get the previous!
