Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is looking forward to facing Crystal Palace's Roy Hodgson.

The Reds go to Palace in the early kickoff tomorrow.

Klopp said: "When Roy was in Switzerland, he implemented 4-4-2, my former manager showed a lot of videos of him.

"That was the first time he crossed my way, so I'm really pleased I met him in the Premier league.

"He's an outstanding person and a really nice man. When I see him I ask him, what are you still doing here? But he looks happy, he enjoys it, I couldn't respect it more. He was my inspiration but he doesn't inspire me to work the job that long. Great guy."
