Jurgen Klopp: 'No need to panic buy after Burnley defeat'

Jurgen Klopp: 'No need to panic buy'

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has insisted that he will not panic buy in the wake of his side's 2-0 loss to Burnley on Saturday.

The Reds fell to a disappointing defeat at Turf Moor just six days after opening their campaign with a thrilling 4-3 victory away to Arsenal.

However, while leaving the door open for more new arrivals, Klopp insists that there is no pressing need to re-enter the transfer market.

"If one game should change my mind then I would be a real idiot," he told reporters.

"The answer is I don't know - we will see. I know you would all buy a left-back - but a midfielder?

"Emre Can was on the bench, he had a back problem, Lucas Leiva is injured and you ask me for a hard midfield player."

Liverpool have made seven new signings already this summer, but have recouped their spending by selling players.
