Jurgen Klopp issues rallying cry to try and lift battered Liverpool dressing room

Jurgen Klopp has tried to lift his battered Liverpool players, telling them: “We can still make it an outstanding season.”

Liverpool are wounded and in the last few weeks they have seen their European and FA Cup hopes ended and their Premier League chances suffer a major blow. They face Fulham in a massive game at Craven Cottage tomorrow and Klopp says they must not dwell on these disappointments.

“What should influence us more: the last week or the chance in front of us?” said the Liverpool boss. “I’m fully of the opinion that there’s a next chance for us and we can turn things around absolutely in all departments.

“We can still make it an outstanding season. It will be a good season, but of course how you look at it is massively influenced by the last part of it.

“The boys know I don’t tell them things I don’t believe in and I’m 100 per cent sure we can win all of the games we have from now.”

Klopp knows setbacks are part of football and he wants his players to roll with the punches to get their league campaign back on track as he counts down his final games at Anfield.

Liverpool have slipped from first to third after taking just one point from their last two matches and Klopp wants to see a reaction at Fulham. “There’s no season I can remember where there were no moments I thought ‘Ah, we should have won that, we should have done that’,” he said.

“It’s part of life constantly that you have to deal with them. It’s never about how many punches you get, it’s always how you deal with them if you allow them. That’s how we have to deal with the situation and that’s what we’ve always done.

“If you want to be champion in the Premier League, you have to be close to perfect and if you’re not perfect, you have to deal with the setbacks in the best possible way.

“We had a setback week with three games we didn’t like too much, the results especially, before we beat Atalanta and now we have to start turning it around.”

Liverpool took the first steps in their recovery in Bergamo and in the first half they rediscovered their old intensity before they tired.

Trent Alexander-Arnold was outstanding in his first start since February 10 and says the Reds must find their cutting edge at Fulham after managing just one Mohamed Salah penalty in their last three games.

Liverpool have little time to catch their breath and in seven days they must face Fulham, Everton and West Ham – all away.
