Liverpool midfielder Thiago: Working with Klopp? It's awesome

Liverpool midfielder Thiago Alcantara admits he's enjoyed playing for manager Jurgen Klopp.

The Spain international arrived at Anfield after winning the Champions League with Bayern Munich.

However, the 29-year-old has not had the impact in England that many would have imagined.

Thiago says he is enjoying the challenge of playing under Klopp and told the BBC's Football Focus: "It's amazing. You learn a lot and you have to play a different side of the game that you've played before.

"It's awesome because you have to learn, adapt yourself and evolve with that. The team-mates we have are quality, so it makes you even happier to perform and play even better football."
