"Juventus is the favorite for the Champions League": word of Jurgen Klopp. The Liverpool manager in an interview with 'The Guardian', weaves the praises of the black and white team which, he says, "has the best squad I've ever seen in my whole life, with quality players, it's crazy".
"Before the season started my favorite to win the Champions League was Juventus - Klopp's words - but obviously I don't watch enough Italian football so I can't understand how it is not at the top of the standings with 10 points ahead".
For the German coach, to contend the Champions at Liverpool defending champion and absolute dominator in the Premier League there are "Bayern Munich who has an important squad and, if all are well, the PSG is equally incredible. And you can never leave out Barcelona or Manchester City. I have no idea where we can go - he says - but at the moment there is no need to even think about it because we have to focus exclusively on Atletico (next opponent in the round of 16, ed.) What I know, however, is that last year we showed we could beat the best. It doesn't mean we will do it again, but we can. There are so many strong teams out there that you have to be ready to fight, then it's also a matter of luck, to win you also need that".
