Manager Jurgen Klopp was happy with how well his players performed and says they have given themselves a great platform for success this season.

Speaking to , he said: ‘I think it was a really mature performance. After two weeks not together, it’s really tricky. I don’t think after the international break, I’ve ever saw the best game of the season. A very controlled performance.

‘Big two months now. We have the chance to create the situation we wanted to have. The boys have done well to create a top class basis. But we all know it’s a tricky one. We all know it’s hard to win one trophy. We just have to take it game by game.’
