Klopp: Liverpool has to make massive steps, we have to grow

Liverpool head coach Jurgen Klopp commented on his team's victory over Toulouse (5:1) in the Europa League.

- Result good, performance good [and] especially a lot of really good individual performances, which is nice because it is important for development. Besides the goal we conceded and the chance we gave them when Trent had his spectacular save, around that everything [was] what we expected. Toulouse are a good team, they are playing football, [but] we put a proper shift in and that's what I wanted. Then the goals we scored were wonderful. I would say the right players scored the goals, all of them were really, really good. So, nothing to complain [about] really.

I think I've said before, I think it's really easy to fall in love with this team because it [has] so much excitement in it. We have to make massive steps, we have to grow, we have to get more stable, we have to do a lot of things but a lot of signs are really promising. That's true as well. How the team interacts with each other is really nice because when you talk about the rebuild of a team then it is all about the things you see on the pitch, obviously, but to see that there must be a rebuild off the pitch as well – and that's going really well. Players growing into their new roles, if you want. That's all good. But besides that, nothing really happened.

Imagine if we didn't win all three games in the Europa League and everybody would tell me, 'How can you not?' so it's always small margins. So far, it's OK and before we play Toulouse again we have three games. There is a lot that can happen between now and then, and I would like to play them all one after the other and not making too big steps.
