He saw that Van Dijk allowed 4 goals in the friendly, Klopp's unexpected decision with the Dutchman

Liverpool FC did not show its best version in the most recent friendly against Greuther Furth where the team finished with a final result of 4-4. One of the problems that Jurgen Klopp identified was precisely the lack of forcefulness of his team in the defensive zone and allowing mistakes that cannot happen in the following season.

The Anfield club will face an atypical season because it does not participate in the UEFA Champions League, but it will have action in the UEFA Europa League. Therefore, it seems that the objectives of the club could focus on fighting for the Premier League title again and attempting a great feat to be crowned once again as the champions of England.

However, the actions seen in the match against Furth of Germany do not give much optimism. Despite this, Jurgen Klopp sends a message of calm, especially to his great captain Virgil Van Dijk, who did not have the best performance last season, but now wants to once again be the great leader of the team in the lower zone.

What does Klopp say about what happened?

"Of course, nobody wants to concede four goals, but in the second half we tried to create play and we were too late, we passed the ball too late, the first touch was not good, and that's how we got them back into the game," Klopp confessed at a press conference, referring to the fact that there is full support and confidence in all the players.
