<\/p>\nKlopp also downplayed their tag as favourites and insisted Unai Emery\u2019s side will not come to Anfield just to lay down and die.<\/p>\n
Liverpool currently sit top of the Premier League and opened up a six-point gap after trouncing Newcastle 4-0 on Boxing Day, while Arsenal are in fifth place.<\/p>\n
Although Emery claimed Klopp\u2019s men could go the season unbeaten, the German rejected claims that his opposite number was trying to play mind games, saying: \u201cWas the question for Unai Emery, \u2018Do you think Liverpool can go unbeaten?\u2019 Is that a normal answer then?\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were not as good as we can be defending-wise. I think it was in the period of the Napoli game when we didn\u2019t do too well. We needed this couple of weeks for adjusting a few things. We did that.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey are good, strong with the ball and very lively. Their counter-attacks are crazy-quick. Aubameyang and [Alexandre] Lacazette are a good strike two. Outstanding strikers up front, quick on the wings, a really good team.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
