Liverpool boss Klopp continues Pulisic praise

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was full of praise for Christian Pulisic after Sunday's 3-1 loss to Borussia Dortmund.

The BVB teen sensation scored twice to dispatch the Reds in the International Champions Cup.

In his pre-match press conference, Klopp opened up on a potential transfer for the 19-year-old, and he continued his positive words after the game.

He said: "He's a fantastic skilled boy, and it's not a surprise to see. He's a smart player, and unfortunately the USA needs more of these players. He alone cannot do it all.

"Don't put too much pressure on the boy, hopefully you can have a few more of them and then play very successful soccer in the future. If Belgium and Iceland can go to a World Cup then so can the USA. I think he'll be fine."
