Tony Pulis: 'Jurgen Klopp is a fantastic manager'

Tony Pulis has described Jurgen Klopp as a "fantastic manager" ahead of Liverpool's match against West Bromwich Albion at Anfield in the Premier League.

The Reds have lost just twice in 13 matches since appointing the former Borussia Dortmund manager in October, while securing a League Cup semi-final and progression to the knockout stage of the Europa League.

The Baggies manager said at his pre-match press conference: "He's a fantastic manager, his record shows that he's been a top, top manager in Germany, working his way through and being successful and then going to Dortmund and doing an exceptional job there.

"He's got one of the best clubs in England, with some top, top players, so he'll have the opportunity to push them on and progress.

"He's had a good start, he looks bright and breezy and his command of the English language is excellent, so it looks like he'll be here to stay."

West Brom are unbeaten in their last three Premier League outings, while Liverpool lost 2-0 to Newcastle United last time out.
