Press Conference: Jurgen Klopp and Virgil van Dijk preview Champions League clash with Porto

The big games just keep coming for Liverpool. On Tuesday night Jurgen Klopp’s double-chasing side welcome Porto to Anfield for a Champions League quarter-final first-leg tie. And to preview the clash, Reds boss Klopp and his star defender Virgil van Dijk staged a press conference at Anfield. An upbeat Klopp was up first, and he spoke about what all these late crucial goals mean, Liverpool’s development as a European force under his watch, Mohamed Salah, last season’s showdown with Porto, and the latest on the fitness of Joe Gomez and Adam Lallana, among other things. Then it was the turn of van Dijk to face the media with the player-of-the-year contender discussing whether the Reds can win both the Premier League and Champions League, the response to being favourites on Tuesday night, how much the suspended Andy Robertson will be missed, and his thoughts on the next star-in-the-making to roll off the Porto production line.
