Liverpool forward, Xherdan Shaqiri has disclosed what manager, Jurgen Klopp told him before he came on and scored a brace in the Reds\u2019 Premier League 3-1 win over Manchester United on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Goals from Sadio Mane (1), Xherdan Shaqiri (2) gave Jurgen Klopp\u2019s men all three points against United.<\/p>\n

However, Jesse Lingard did score for Jose Mourinho\u2019s men.<\/p>\n

According to Shaqiri, Klopp told him to be in the game directly before he came on.<\/p>\n

The Swiss international also said that he watched the match from outside and there were a lot of spaces between the lines.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe [Klopp] said to me he wanted me to be in the game directly. I tried to be direct in the game and you can see also I prepared myself very well,\u201d Shaqiri was quoted by Metro UK as saying.<\/p>\n

\u201cI watched the game from outside also, so you can see the spaces and there were a lot of spaces between the lines.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very good between the lines and try to stay there and pick the ball up to have an impact and stay in the game.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the end I scored two goals and we won the game, that\u2019s a perfect day for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shaqiri added: \u201cObviously I\u2019d be lying if I said you are not disappointed when you are on the bench \u2013 every player is disappointed when he\u2019s on the bench,\u2019 he said after the final whistle.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut I always stay positive and try to help the team when I come on and you saw today when I came on I tried to help the team and to have an impact.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
