Liverpool's Jurgen Klopp Says Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain 'Needs to Be Patient'

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has urged Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain to be patient as he returns to action for the Reds following a lengthy injury lay-off.

Per Goal, the midfielder is said to be "desperate" to start against his former club Arsenal on Saturday, but Klopp wants him to take his time:

"He needs to be patient in the right way, and everything will be fine 100 per cent. We only talk about Ox because everybody knows how good he is.

"We need to make sure that he can show that on the pitch as well.
