Jürgen Klopp described Arsenal as a 'tough, tough, tough' opponent as he analysed Monday's Premier League meeting with the Gunners.
Having taken a maximum six points in the top flight so far this season, Liverpool next host Mikel Arteta’s side at Anfield – the first of a double-header before they clash in the Carabao Cup fourth round three days later.
At his pre-match press conference on Friday, Klopp detailed the challenges of facing Arsenal, who beat the Reds in the teams’ previous league fixture and edged August’s FA Community Shield on penalties.
The boss also fielded questions on Liverpool’s unbeaten record at Anfield in the Premier League – which now stands at 60 games – and on the possibility of improving on last season’s level of performance.
