Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has described Brighton and Hove Albion manager Graham Potter as ‘outstanding’ and admitted he’s impressed at the job the Englishman is doing at the Amex Stadium.
The Seagulls snatched a draw at Anfield earlier in the season after coming back from two goals down and the former Borussia Dortmund boss has claimed the south coast outfit did something that day that ‘not a lot of teams are able to do’ against his side.
“They played through the lines, between the lines, in behind the lines. That’s what not a lot of teams are able to do,” the 54-year-old said.
Tomorrow is huge for us – picking up three points is imperative to ensure that we reduce the gap on league leaders Manchester City to three points ahead of the Cityzens’ trip to Selhurst Park on Monday night.
We are without a win in our last three fixtures against tomorrow’s hosts.
Our last win against Brighton came in July 2020 – a brace from Mo Salah and a Jordan Henderson strike earned us all three points that day.
Let’s hope for a similar result tomorrow to start the weekend off in great fashion.
