In-form Liverpool midfielder Adam Lallana has played down the impact that manager Juergen Klopp has had on his own excellent form this season.

As the Merseyside club prepares for the visit of fellow title contenders Manchester United to Anfield on Monday night, the England midfielder said there had been no change in his approach since the German’s appointment.

“I’ve been the same Adam Lallana since the minute I walked in the door at Liverpool really,” the 28-year-old told the Post.

“Obviously players go through ups and downs form-wise or it may take some a little bit longer to settle,” said Lallana.

“A new manager comes in and implements his own style on the team. But the manager is the one who takes responsibility for results. If you’re not doing what he asks you to do, then you’re not going to play.”
