Klopp assesses Genk challenge, Reds' focus and late comebacks

The Reds have their sights set on bolstering their qualification hopes with a win in the Group E tie after securing a 4-1 victory over Felice Mazzu’s side in Belgium a fortnight ago.

Nevertheless, ‘a proper shift’ is what will be required from his side, according to Klopp, if they’re to collect maximum points in a group he believes remains wide open after three matchdays.

And while journalists asked the manager during the pre-match press conference whether Sunday’s top-of-the-table Premier League clash with Manchester City would present any kind of distraction, his response was unequivocal as he heaped praise upon his squad’s focus levels.
