Liverpool ace: Jurgen Klopp has turned my career around

DEJAN LOVREN insists he has a lot to thank Jurgen Klopp for.

 

Dejan Lovren believes he is playing better under Jurgen Klopp

 

The Croatia international got off to a shaky start at Anfield following his £20million move in 2014 under Brendan Rodgers.

But Lovren has become a regular for Klopp's side this season that sees the Reds eighth in the Premier League table.

And the 26-year-old believes his recent performances have shown Liverpool fans not to doubt him.

 

"I think that they are now starting to realise that I am worthy, and they regret that they initially had a different opinion," Lovren told Croatian newspaper Sportske.

"But Liverpool is a big club, and expectations are high, so it is normal that you are going to be criticised.

 

"I needed someone like Klopp to push me, and to give me support. For such a man, I'm always ready to fight to the end, and for the team and the club."

Liverpool's next fixture sees them host Arsenal on Wednesday night (8pm).
