Jurgen Klopp hails players' character as Liverpool surge back to winning ways

Liverpool left-back Andrew Robertson has warned Bayern Munich that Jurgen Klopp’s side will be at “full throttle” for their Champions League clash next week.

The Reds have been rejuvenated by a four-day warm weather training camp in Marbella, after returning to form with a 3-0 win against Bournemouth.

Liverpool face Bayern next Wednesday before travelling to Old Trafford to tackle Manchester United in a crucial Premier League fixture.

Robertson, however, is adamant that the squad are now rejuvenated and ready for the crucial run of matches.

“Two massive games. When we landed in Marbella on Monday our full focus was on the Bayern Munich game,” Robertson said.

“We need to be full throttle for that game. They are such a good team and they have been the last six or seven years so we know what a tough task it will be.

“But we believe we can cause any teams problems and we have to be at our best.”

Liverpool are undefeated at Anfield in European competitions since 2014, and Robertson believes the home-leg against the German champions will be decisive.

“I think that’s what all good teams do,” Robertson said of revelling in the Kop’s support.

“We had a good run last season and especially in the Champions League, I think it helped massively.

“Everyone knows how special nights here are in the Champions League.

“We feed off each other. Players feed off the fans and the fans feed off the players because it’s up to us to get them to have something to shout about.

“But it also helps when they’re getting behind us and it can maybe give you that extra percentage or whatever in the game.

“That’s what home fans are for. Every club’s got it and it’s all about making the most of it.”
