Jurgen Klopp for winning trophies for Liverpool
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says his players should enjoy playing in Wembley’s “special game”, but regrets the schedule, which will interrupt any celebrations if the Reds win the trophy today. He said:
“The season is busy, but it will never happen that the FA Cup is just a normal match. This is a special game and for some the biggest in their careers. We want to enjoy it and deliver for our people.
“We couldn’t celebrate the Carabao Cup because we played three days later. If we win the FA Cup, it’s the same. We had a parade with Dortmund when we won the cup. It was big. We are now playing in Southampton instead of a possible parade.
“I’ve never won the FA Cup before and most of my players have never won it before. We really look forward to this opportunity.
“The boys made their socks to come here, with all the different challenges of the year.
“Now this is a huge final for us and I am really happy to be a part of it. We always do our best to reach the final [previously]we just didn’t make it. “
