(The Guardian) Liverpool meet West Ham at Anfield tomorrow at 5.30pm. The manager Jürgen Klopp is asked if he is enjoying chasing down Manchester City at the top of the Premier League: “I have to be careful whatever I say then you, some of you, will make something really weird of it. I enjoy the situation that we’re in, that’s true ... I really want to win tomorrow, really ... but if we lose, you will all sit here [the media] and tell me the title race is over now ... and these kind of things. I don’t have enough capacity for all these different scenarios. I don’t really think about it. The only thing I think about is to prepare for West Ham, and then Inter [in the Champions League], and Brighton ... they’re all so difficult to play. I cannot think about what we can win in the end ... I am barely smart enough to get enough concentration and maybe focus for one game, and not the whole general situation. “We are obviously not in the worst moment, but there are so many challenges ahead of us that I really ... I don’t feel in a ‘chasing mood’ [against Man City], or whatever, but hopefully we’re ready to face West Ham in a better way than when we played them there.” It is mentioned that David Moyes has never managed a team to win at Anfield: “Long may it continue ... What West Ham is doing is incredibly good ... I’m really pleased for David, he’s really a nice colleague ... making smart transfers, bringing really good players in and having ... it’s a really strong side, I have to say. Against us, traditionally, they are more defence-orientated with counterattacking but if you let them play football now, with this team ... [Jarrod] Bowen, what a player he became, unbelievable ... [Saïd] Benrahma, outstanding, [Pablo] Fornals, outstanding, [Michail] Antonio, outstanding.”

(The Guardian) Some more from Jürgen Klopp. There was talk of the Liverpool manager’s future plans during today’s press conference, a subject that will cause all Reds fans to put fingers in ears and and hum until all such nasty, don’t-want-to-think-about-it talk has stopped. His current five-year deal was signed in 2019 so, how about it then Jürgen, surely this sexy, quadruple-chasing squad will make you want to stay on? “The plan is still the same, nothing changed really. If I decide to leave in 2024 it is nothing to do with the quality of the squad: ‘My God, I have to manage them’ or ‘Oh my God, I’d better stop managing them’. “It’s nothing to do with that. All we do is for the long term. This club must be even better especially when I am not here any more and that’s the plan, that’s what we are working on. It’s not so important how long I will stay, it is much more important what we do until then.” While we’re on Liverpool, some team news for the West Ham game: The centre-back Joel Matip, who has been far more robust this season, misses out due to an illness (not Covid-related) while Thiago Alcântara’s pesky hamstring still isn’t right. Elsewhere in midfield, Curtis Jones and Naby Keita will be given late assessments. “So from eight midfielders to four midfielders in a week, that can happen easily,” said Klopp.

(The Guardian) West Ham boss David Moyes spent some time Friday addressing player workload and his poor record at Anfield. “We’re not pleased with the Premier League that we’ve had to play so many games, and you can relay that to them please,” said Moyes in today’s press conference. “We had a game on Sunday (1-0 home win over Wolves), a cup game on Wednesday (3-1 loss at Southampton) and now we’re playing again on Saturday (away to Liverpool), so three games in six days would not be correct. “But they (the players) have been really resilient. Whenever we have had to continue playing, even in lockdown and the periods when we’ve been really busy, they have always backed it up and come good again. “I’ve got a lot of confidence that will happen, but obviously with the fixtures we’ve got it’s made it a really difficult week for us.” As for his Anfield hoodoo which shows 17 failed attempts to win there as manager of West Ham, Everton, Manchester United and Sunderland, he had this to say. “Going to Anfield is difficult and it has been for me over many years. I have found it really difficult throughout my career because Liverpool have really, really good teams and they tend to have top managers. Hopefully it gets better this time.”

(The Guardian) David Moyes has also revealed that Ukraine forward Andriy Yarmolenko will miss West Ham’s trip to Anfield. Yarmolenko was given time off last week following Russia’s invasion of his homeland and Moyes says the player isn’t yet ready to return to the squad. “He has been training but he won’t travel to Liverpool with us,” said Moyes. “I don’t think he’s quite ready and we want to give him every opportunity to do everything he can for his family and for his country. I think he just feels a little bit bogged down with the situation at this present time. “I feel helpless and that’s not just me as a football manager, but we as a country and a population. I think we all feel as if we can’t do anything. “We can only give him our full support. We continually ask if there’s anything we can do. “I spoke with him this morning for 20 minutes about it and tried to ask a few questions about what’s going on etc., but it’s really difficult because nobody’s ever been in these circumstances before and I hope I’m never in them again. “Coming into training sometimes makes things feel a little better for him and we try to give him a bit of release, but we also want to do everything we can for him and his family.”

Sadio Mane has shots blocked by Craig Dawson and Ben Johnson in very quick succession.
