Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has identified two players that have seen their performances improve incredibly since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was appointed.
To Klopp, Paul Pogba and Ander Herrera have clicked after the managerial change at Old Trafford. Both were on the score sheet when they eliminated Chelsea from the FA Cup tournament with a 2-0 win at Stamford Bridge. Inj fact many pundits have claimed it is time Man United appoints Herrera as their captain given his leadership skills.
“They have found a solution and it has worked out. Since Ole was there pretty much everything changed. We see the Pogba that Man Utd signed a couple of years ago, and [Ander] Herrera in outstanding shape. They were all good before but now they are full of confidence and use their potential. That makes a big difference. Sometimes you need changes, and in football, it’s very often the manager, that helps. In this case obviously, it helped. It is a different side, a different style, but still United. They have all different ways in their toolbox to get results.” Klopp told reporters in his pre-match presser.
Liverpool were victors in the first leg encounter at Anfield where they pulled a rather comfortable 3-1 win over their arch-rivals.
