Jurgen Klopp claims that he did not even realize that Sadio Mane was in the midst of a goal drought as he prepares Liverpool to face West Brom on Sunday.
the Reds ahead he hadn’t scored in any of his last 10 games, before scoring in Palace’s 7-0 win. That didn’t bother Klopp in the slightest, though, as his team sits at the top of the table.
Speaking before Sam Allardyce’s clash with the Baggies, the Liverpool boss said “we didn’t even know [10-game drought]! He would have lost everything if he had to bet on how many games he hadn’t scored.
“One of our best players in the world has not scored for a while, who cares? Difficult to defend, if Sadio has the ball, you need 2/3 of it ”.
As for the threat West Brom posed over the weekend, Klopp admitted that he knows what to expect.
He added: “Of course, it is complicated. We broke it down this morning and it’s a mix of Everton when Sam was there and what I hope is a tough opponent. Always tough against their teams.

Proper Baggies Fight
West Brom will be looking for a suitable fight. Sam is a specialist in these types of fights. A tough game.
“We analyze them and try to get information, but we focus on what we can influence and that’s it.
“Hopefully we have the ball a lot and we believe. If we create, we have to do it together and be there to counter pressure. I would rather know a lot, but most of the time they change in front of us. “
Allardyce has only been with the Hawthorns for a few days, and Klopp admits that creates a little problem.
He added: “They have more information about us than we do. Sam only had a few days before Villa, not many changes.
“They replace Livermore, but when we prepare we use the games they play, they play differently in front of us because of our soccer. It is always complicated. “
