Liverpool veteran Milner eager to learn from 'top manager' Klopp

Liverpool midfielder James Milner has stated that he is keen to continue learning from manager Jurgen Klopp.


With 13 years of Premier League experience under his belt, Milner is one of the most experienced veterans of the current Liverpool squad.

Despite having a wealth of experience under his belt, Milner always looks to increase his knowledge of all things football and the former Manchester City star has stated that he is keen on learning new things from Klopp who he describes as a 'top manager'.

Milner said: "You can always learn whether you are 16 or 17, or whether you are 35 or 29.

"That's football and the manager will still be learning himself. Obviously he has come in with his new ideas, new training methods and things like that, so it's great for me as much as it is the younger guys.

"Hopefully I can help those younger guys, but I'm still learning myself. Changing managers is always different and I'm still learning the way he wants to play. I've been fortunate to work under some great managers and he [Klopp] is another one of the top managers in the game.

"I can learn as much as I can and hopefully put that back into my game, as a team [member] and as an individual and improve."
