Liverpool brought in four new arrivals during the summer, totalling more than £150m. Xherdan Shaqiri, Alisson, Naby Keita and Fabinho all joined the Reds as they look to challenge for the Premier League title.
They got their campaign off to a flying start with Sadio Mane scoring twice in a 4-0 opening weekend win over West Ham.
Klopp was joined in the dugout by Pepijn Lijnders after the coach returned during the summer to take up a role on the backroom staff.
He had left in January to take on the managerial position at NEC Nijmegen and Klopp believes the return of the Dutchman is a big plus point.
“It is important to mention a returning individual within our own camp: Pepijn Lijnders,” Klopp wrote in Liverpool’s official matchday programme. I cannot begin to tell you how positive it is for Liverpool Football Club that we have Pep back and in such a senior capacity.
“He is totally committed to the best values we hold; his influence this season and for season to come will be important for the entire football operations and I think we have someone who is world class as a coach but also as a person.
“Likewise with Peter Krawietz, who has been with me throughout my time at Liverpool and previously at Dortmund and Mainz.
“I have complete trust in Pete and know he is someone who will work non-stop to make sure we are the best prepared for every challenge we face.
“I feel very blessed to be supported by both of them, as well as John Achterberg, Andreas Kornmayer and the countless others at Melwood who are vital to us.”
Following a successful start to the season, which saw Liverpool top the table after the first gameweek, the Reds travel to Crystal Palace on Monday .
Many have tipped Klopp’s side to rival Manchester City for this season’s title as they look to win the Premier League for the first time.
But Klopp has admitted he has no intentions of being the No 1 team.
“If a team is better than yours, then you have to work out how to be at their level and how to beat them,” he said.
“I have never wanted to have the best team. I have never wanted to be the best player or the best manager. What interests me is to beat the best.
“The best team today in England is Manchester City. The goal then is to beat City as often as possible.”
Salah suffered a shoulder injury in the first half of the game, which the Merseysiders lost 3-1, after tangling with Ramos and was forced off before the interval.
Klopp has been vocal with his criticism of the Real skipper in the months after the final, recently branding his performance ‘ruthless and brutal.’
Ramos is sick to death of hearing the former Borussia Dortmund chief bring up the incident and believes he continues to do so in order to deflect from his side’s shortcomings in the match.
“I’m not going to highlight this again,” the Spain international said when pressed on Klopp’s latest comments.
“I’ve given my view before of what happened, it was not intentional. [Salah] pulled my arm first.
“It’s not the first final [Klopp] has lost, he should stick to his own business.
“Some of us have been operating at a very high level for many years, I’m not sure he can say the same.”
Ramos defended his coming together with Salah and his collision with Reds stopper Loris Karius before the World Cup, saying: “Bloody hell, they’ve given this a lot of attention, the Salah thing.
“I didn’t want to speak because everything is magnified. I see the play well, he [Salah] grabs my arm first and I fell to the other side, the injury happened to the other arm and they said that I gave him a judo hold.
“After the goalkeeper said that I dazed him with a clash.
“I am only missing (Roberto) Firmino saying that he got a cold because a drop of my sweat landed on him.”
Liverpool kicked off their Premier League campaign on Sunday afternoon, demolishing West Ham 4-0 to top the table after the first round of fixtures.
