Jürgen Klopp awaits 'proper challenge' from Liverpool's european games

Added at:

Jürgen Klopp looks forward to the challenge of Liverpool's 'proper football group' in this season's Champions League.

Speaking exclusively to Liverpoolfc.com shortly after the draw, he said: "The first thing to say is this is a proper, proper challenge.

"All of the clubs have quality, they all have pedigree and I would say they all have a chance. The good thing is that we do also, so it makes sense for us to look forward to the challenge and give it a try.

"We did not ask for any favours and we have not been given any but this is not a competition where you can look for easy ways through because the standard is always unbelievably high.

"The difference this year is that the group stage will be shorter than usual, so we will have to be ready not just for the quality of the opposition but also for the different demands and rhythms."
