Klopp: 'No problems with parking the bus'

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits that his side will be happy to "park the bus" if that is the tactic required when they travel to face Manchester United.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has admitted that his side may have to "park the bus" if it is required when they take on Manchester United at Old Trafford this afternoon.

The old rivals clash in Manchester in the Premier League as Klopp takes on Jose Mourinho, who has infamously adopted deeply defensive tactics when taking on Liverpool in recent fixtures.

"I've no problem with defending," Klopp told BBC Radio 5 live ahead of the game. "I know what people are saying about a specific kind of football.

"But it's all about winning and there are different ways of winning. We have to defend with all we have but it's not a battle of systems. It's two good teams against each other. If we have to defend, we will, and if people think it's parking the bus, then at that moment, we will have to park the bus."

United and Liverpool are currently battling it out for second place in the standings, where Klopp's charges find themselves just two points behind Mourinho's men.
