Liverpool boss Klopp says Milner in career best form: Don't forget Wijnaldum

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp believes James Milner is in career best form.

Klopp also says Gini Wijnaldum deserves better press.

“We talk about Naby Keita, that's good, he's new," said Klopp. “But James Milner made big steps in the last three years, that's the truth.

“I don't want to judge his career but it feels like it's the best moment of his career.

“Gini Wijnaldum, no-one speaks about him. He came from Newcastle as kind of a number 10 or winger. He can play the six [role] and the eight in the way I don't know many players can. They don't talk about him.

“The world is like that. When it's new it's fantastic, [but] what you already have [feel like saying] 'yeah, I'm still here too'."
