The ex-midfielder says the Blancos are better equipped to handle the Champions League final circus, but the man in charge at Anfield can calm his side
Liverpool need Jurgen Klopp to demonstrate a cool head if they are to manage the pressures of the Champions League final, according to two-time winner Xabi Alonso.
The Reds' unexpected run to Kiev sees them square off against a battle-hardened Real Madrid side seeking a third straight European triumph.
In contrast, no member of Liverpool's squad has ever featured in the final, with only Klopp himself able to call on memories of coaching Borussia Dortmund in their 2013 defeat to Bayern Munich.
