James Milner reveals how Jurgen Klopp is helping him improve his game at Liverpool

James Milner expects to be fit to face Manchester City on Saturday

LIVERPOOL midfielder James Milner is confident Jurgen Klopp can improve his all-round game as he continues to implement his new style of play at Anfield.

 

The 29-year-old had started all six of Klopp's opening games in the charge, but was ruled out of last weekend's defeat to Crystal Palace with a hamstring problem.

Milner is optimistic he will recover in time to face his former club Manchester City on Saturday and believes there is plenty he can learn from Klopp's methods.

"You can always learn whether you are 16 or 17, or whether you are 35 or 29," he told Liverpool's official website. "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 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."
