Klopp, 48, took over at Anfield during the intentional break last month and has lost just one of his seven games in charge.
The German leads his team to Manchester tomorrow for a crunch 5.30pm clash with Toure's City.
And the Ivorian midfielder said he is wary of "new manager syndrome" after Remi Garde's Aston Villa side held City to a draw a fortnight ago.
“I don’t like it when a new manager comes to a club because all the players want to impress him.
“We had the perfect example of the new manager syndrome against Aston Villa which made it a tougher game – we had a lot of chances to score and if we had taken just one of them it would have been a different situation.
“When new managers come in, all the players want to give 100 per cent and fight for everything possible.
"Liverpool are a top club, a top side and it will be a massive game on Saturday.”
City have not lost at home to Liverpool in the league since 2008 but did go down 2-1 the last time these sides met, at Anfield last season.
