Klopp sees difficulty for de Boer to translate Ajax style to Crystal Palace

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits that new Crystal Palace boss Frank de Boer will face difficulties in transferring his style from Ajax to Palace.

Palace played a new 3-5-2 system against Huddersfield last week, but they ended up on the wrong side of the 3-0 result at Selhurst Park. The Eagles will now travel to Anfield to take on Liverpool.

Klopp said: "Wherever we go we all need results, that's what it's about. I have no time or space to think about what Frank de Boer could face at Crystal Palace, I'm sure they've tried a lot to change things and will still try and all that stuff, I know him even more from his time in Amsterdam.

"We played Amsterdam with Dortmund and they were always a footballing side, really lively, but it was Ajax so that is different and in the Dutch league they are a very dominant team."
