Jurgen Klopp expects varied approach from Jose Mourinhos Manchester United
Jurgen Klopp does not expect Manchester United to take the route one option against Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday.
United travel to Liverpool to take on their bitter rivals, a massive 16 points behind Klopps side in the Premier League table.
Mourinho is expected to try and slow Liverpools flow, with some fans suggesting the United boss would be happy to park the bus against Klopp.
But the Liverpool boss denied United only have one option against his side, insisting Mourinhos team was not one-dimensional.
They have not only one style, long-ball football or deep sitting — maybe last year a little bit in the game at Anfield, he said.
Im not the Pope of football tactics and tell people what they have to do.
While Klopp labelled Mourinho the worlds most successful manager, his rival suggested trophies were crucial to a coachs success.

Mourinho has won two trophies as United boss, while Klopp has lost three finals as Liverpools manager.
I dont know, it depends on the way you approach it, Mourinho said when asked about Klopps trophy drought.

I think trophies matter, it matters, especially when you have the potential to fight for trophies and especially when you clearly say the objective is to win a trophy.
I think sometimes, to just say its not, is not very intelligent, but when you have the potential, you have nothing to hide.
You know from day one your potential and your desire has a relation with the potential, because to say we want to win, everyone can say that, but another is to say the potential in a way you have.
But I think Jurgen said already they want to win the Premier League, and that is their objective this season.
