Intensity is one of our strong points, says Jurgen Klopp

Liverpool are off to a great start to the 2019/2020 season, as they lead the Premier League table and won the UEFA Super Cup against Chelsea. The Reds haven’t looked like they might slowing down after being crowned Champions League winners, starting the 2019/20 season with an unbeaten run.

Coming off an impressive win against one of their biggest rivals in Arsenal at Anfield, everyone is wondering if this is finally the year the Merseyside club ends their 29-year first-tier title drought. With few changes to the team, Liverpool looks more ready than ever to challenge Pep Guardiola's team this upcoming season, according to the Daily Mail. 

"Our identity is intensity. I said to the boys, "OK, but how do you think they feel?". Because it was an intense first half, but Arsenal had to make all the runs as well. Sure, we did them, but that means so did they. And the tempo we put in the game from the beginning was really incredible. There was no time to breathe,' Klopp explained reports the Daily Mail. 

Opposition still hasn't found an antidote for the high-intensity playing style the German manager implements on his players, and that could be an advantage for the Reds as they know Manchester City won't drop many points in league games. Yet, it is still to be seen if that's enough for Liverpool to become champions again after a 29-year drought.
