Jurgen Klopp has dismissed suggestions Thiago Alcantara was not suited to playing for Liverpool as he explained the one issue the Spaniard has had to contend with at Anfield.
Thiago has been in excellent form in recent weeks and was outstanding in the 4-0 Premier League romp over bitter North West rivals Manchester United on Tuesday. The Spaniard had initially struggled since arriving from Bayern Munich for an initial £20million in September 2020, not helped by a knee injury suffered on his full debut against Everton that sidelined him for almost three months.
The 31-year-old, though, was integral in Liverpool chasing down a top-four finish last term with his performances this season meaning the Reds have won 25 of the last 29 games in which has started, with the only defeat being the home Champions League reverse to Inter Milan in a tie from which the Reds progressed regardless.
