The story the boys wrote in the past three years was only possible because we were always focused on the next game, Klopp said. We have bigger ambitions in this competition than Tuesday night so we have to be 100% spot on.
We will hopefully have a couple of fresh legs in, said Klopp on Monday. It's clear that we want that, but it's not like we will do so many changes that you cannot recognise our team anymore and think 'who is that?'.
It was not so difficult because we had a look at the things we needed against Villa and I think you saw how good Adam Lallana worked in that system, said Klopp.
I never thought for a second about the Man City game and the Aston Villa game together, said Klopp. I never thought, OK, you should win that, because (otherwise) maybe we lose next week and then we are on a level.
