Liverpool's Jürgen Klopp discussed his team's preparations for the new season.

"Our pre-season is for some long [enough], for some not long enough. So we have to extend again the pre-season into the season, we cannot change that because we have our time limits. I am more than 20 years now in the business in the same position pretty much and we know how much we have to do in the pre-season to create a basis for the whole season.

This time we have two different groups, if you want, but only from November on. Because we have one group who plays the longest season ever and if you go to the final or the semi-finals in the World Cup it will be crazy, absolutely crazy. And we have the other group where there’s quite a proper break in November. But until then everybody has to do the same. The players who go to the World Cup obviously have to be fit there as well; from that point of view it’s actually a good moment, I would say. We will see how we can deal with that afterwards, but until then it should be fine.

In the pre-season nothing really changed. We have our trip to Asia, which we are looking forward to because we were not there for a long time. On the other side, I hope we can train – we know which time of the year it is there, so I don’t think we come through without rain. But hopefully we can really train. We tried everything to prepare as good; groundsmen already there trying to prepare everything. In the end, we need a bit of luck as well there".
