Ahead of Merseyside Derby, Klopp Considers Everton Are Stronger

DBasia.news – The current Everton are different from the past. Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp admits that Everton have changed this season and have some Europe top players.

Liverpool will have a Merseyside Derby against Everton in the Premier League match at Anfield Stadium, Sunday (30/11). Klopp thinks the match won’t be easy for The Reds.

Jurgen Klopp’s argument is The Toffees are deepening the squad by signing great players. Besides that, Everton are just six points behind the Champions League zone currently placed by Chelsea.

“He (Silva) has the best squad, that is how it is. He has brought in players he wanted. Richarlison – what a player he is. (Theo) Walcott came in last year,” Klopp said cited by Sky Sport.

“Since I’ve been here Everton has always been really busy but now it is the best-tuned squad,” the Germany tactician said.

“Now they have creativity, speed, and good organization. (Seamus) Coleman is back and fit, (Michael) Keane is settled and fit, he’s been a brilliant player, and (Lucas) Digne is like a young Leighton Baines,” he said.

“And of course they have England’s No 1 in goal. That is a proper squad and it would be in all leagues in Europe. I am 100 percent sure they would be a European team in whichever competition. But their development and improvement is obvious,” Klopp said.

Liverpool won’t send Alex Oxlade Chamberlain and Divock Origi due to injuries. Meanwhile, Jordan Henderson also absents due to the sanction.
