Klopp warns of 'intense' year for World Cup contingent
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says the next year would be intense for players coming back from the World Cup, as he prepared his side for their trip to Aston Villa in the Premier League on Monday. Liverpool are in sixth place after a disappointing start to the season and face a Villa side who have moved up to 12th after the appointment of Unai Emery as manager in October. "For the players who played in the World Cup, the whole year will be incredibly intense," Klopp told reporters on Friday following his side's 3-2 fourth-round League Cup loss at Manchester City the previous evening.
