Liverpool ran out comfortable winners against Crystal Palace last night.
Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp addressed the media last night, after his side’s fine 2-0 away win at Crystal Palace last night, but he stopped short of heaping too much praise on his side, highlighting what disappointed him about their performance, as quoted by the club’s official website.

The Reds moved up to second place in the Premier League table after last night’s victory, and they sit behind league leaders Manchester City on goal difference.
Many are tipping Liverpool to be City’s closest challengers this season, and they have shown in the first two games that they are more than capable of winning their first league title since 1990.
Klopp wasn’t entirely satisfied with his side’s display at Selhurst Park last night, however.
The German sat down for his post-match press conference, and shared what disappointed him about his side’s display against Palace, as quoted by the club’s official website:
“I thought we could have done better. Defensively it was absolutely OK, [but] I was not too happy with our offensive play. The rhythm was not good, timing was not good, both full-backs need to be involved much more and open up their game a little bit so we really have different options.”
Despite Klopp’s comments, he will surely be happy with Liverpool’s start to the season, and it would take a brave man to bet against them making it three wins from three when they play host to Brighton and Hove Albion at Anfield on Saturday.
