"I remember a conversation with Ox, he said to Hendo 'When I play midfield, I don't feel as intense as on the wing because I don't have to sprint that often.'.... Ok that's your first mistake", Klopp said.If you want to play in central midfield because it means less sprinting to do, you would be better advised not to join a team managed by Jürgen Klopp, who famously demands extremely high energy levels from his midfielders. Oxlade-Chamberlain has adapted well, though, and Klopp is very pleased with his new signing:
"Technically he has made a few fantastic steps, to be honest. I think there's no doubt about his football skills; right foot, left foot, speed, physicality and generally. And he's still young, there's a lot to come I'm sure and I'm really happy about this signing."
