Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has hailed West Ham United at his latest press conference, which was broadcast on the club’s official Youtube channel.
Klopp was told that Liverpool have a very tough run of games coming up by a journalist, who pointed towards clashes with Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City and Leicester City in the imminent future.
But Klopp was keen for West Ham’s achievements not to be overlooked, after David Moyes’ men won their sixth game in a row last night, ahead of their clash at the weekend.
He said: “West Ham flying! Don’t forget them, hey? Six on the bounce!”
West Ham’s brilliant run of form has seen them leap into the top four.
Although Liverpool or Tottenham can catch them with a win on Thursday, David Moyes’ side are now growing in belief that they could challenge for a European spot this season.
Liverpool also seem to have had their confident knocked in recent weeks, so beating West Ham will be no pushover.
Klopp’s side have won just once in their last seven games, with concerns forming around their lacklustre performances.
