Klopp names 'solution' to Liverpool crisis: 'These boys can play football'

Liverpool suffered a home defeat to Crystal Palace on Sunday. Earlier last week, the Reds were beaten 3-0 at home by Atalanta.

The results make it extremely difficult for Liverpool to achieve the treble. Liverpool would need to beat Atalanta by a four-goal margin in Italy and hope for Man City to slip up in the Premier League.

"For winning, as a manager you find a lot of explanations, 'This was great, this was great'," Jurgen Klopp said at the press conference after the Palace loss.

"When you lose, it's not as easy to find these things and they might be obvious but it's not about now putting the finger into that or that or that. The solution is always being really together on the pitch for us. Where we are, we got because we were against the ball an absolute machine, and that's what we have to be.

"In that moment, we have the rhythm, we have the momentum in the game, it's difficult for the opponent, they don't feel great, we feel much better and then these boys can really play football. Today they showed in a really difficult situation that they can do that, and that was good.

"But it doesn't feel great anyway because we lost the game and we planned this day completely differently. But here we are and, how I said, we have to deal with that."
