What Jurgen Klopp has said about Erik ten Hag ahead of Manchester United vs Liverpool FC fixture

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has already described Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag as one of the most "exciting" coaches in world football ahead of today's meeting between the two clubs in Thailand.

United and Liverpool will each get their pre-season preparations underway when they meet at the Rajamangala National Stadium in Bangkok. Both sides arrived in the Thai capital over the weekend and have been training in humid conditions ever since.

While the contest will signal the beginning of another season where Liverpool will go in search of another Premier League title crown, it will mark United's first game under the stewardship of Ten Hag. He was appointed as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's permanent successor back in April and he will be determined to make a winning start to life at the helm, although match fitness and ensuring his players have taken his demands onboard will be his main focus.
