‘Passing too much’… 22-year-old Liverpool player says Jurgen Klopp has told him to dribble more
‘Passing too much’… 22-year-old Liverpool player says Jurgen Klopp has told him to dribble more
Jurgen Klopp is one of the best managers of all-time for a reason.
The German knows how to make any player better. He’s an expert in spotting what a player needs to improve, and he helps them finetune their game to become the best they can be.
Klopp has done some incredible work with Liverpool’s young players in recent years with the likes of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Harvey Elliott and Conor Bradley all coming through and becoming fantastic players in recent years.
Curtis Jones is another player who has cut his teeth under Klopp, and his improvement over the past two years has been a sight to behold.
Speaking to ITV Sport, Jones has now shared some insight into Klopp’s coaching when reviewing one of his goals in the FA Cup, and he says that the gaffer has actually told him to dribble with the ball more.
Jones told to dribble more
The 22-year-old spoke about the instructions he’s been given by Klopp.
“Do you know what, the manager always speaks to me about driving with the ball more because that is a strength of mine. I changed and I was passing too much, in that game I was getting loads of space and I went on a run and passed the ball when I had a chance to shoot, at half-time he said to run with the ball,” Jones said.
Strong dribbler
Klopp is certainly telling Jones to do the right thing in asking him to dribble more.
Jones is a fantastic player, but he is at his best when he’s driving forward into space with the ball.
He runs with such speed and power as well as having great control of the ball, and if Liverpool can utilise that weapon as much as possible, then they will reap the rewards.
Jones is starting to dribble more, and it’s made him a more confident and exciting player.

Liverpool fans could have been forgiven for feeling a little annoyed at seeing Michail Antonio covering their game last night.
Antonio has recently openly admitted to having a public feud with Liverpool supporters. The West Ham United forward even claimed that Reds fans are the reason he doesn’t want Jurgen Klopp’s team to win the league this season.
Nevertheless, there he was, on Sky Sports last night to give his take on Fulham vs Liverpool in the Carabao Cup semi-final.
Exactly what kind of insight was to be expected from someone who previously claimed that his own team – West Ham – would finish above the Reds this season, we’re not sure.
Antonio made that bold, brazen prediction while speaking on his show ‘The Footballer’s Football Podcast‘. Almost unbelievably though, it turns out that it may not have been the worst claim made on the show this season.
That dubious title might actually belong to Antonio’s co-host, Callum Wilson. Back in August having seen Liverpool draw away at Chelsea, Wilson predicted that the Blues would finish the season above Klopp’s side.
Wilson claim looking foolish
To be fair to Wilson, he wouldn’t have been the only one to come to this conclusion back in August. His reasoning was relatively sound, too.
“I think Chelsea will probably finish higher than Liverpool just because they have invested heavily and they are still active in the market at the moment, which is only going to strengthen their position,” said the Newcastle United striker.

“Whereas Liverpool are losing targets which are then going to Chelsea.”
Fair enough, right? Even after that first game, Chelsea looked a good bet to push hard towards the top of the table. Liverpool meanwhile, still had plenty to prove after a terrible 2022/23 season.
But in the months since, the two teams have gone in opposite directions. The Reds have turned into the most difficult side to beat in the division and currently sit top of it.
Chelsea on the other hand have failed to address the problems of last season. Heading into February, Mauricio Pochettino’s team are ninth in the table. Of course, things could still turn around dramatically. But with 17 points between the team, it would take a major collapse from Liverpool for that to happen.
Antonio isn’t off the hook either. However, West Ham are four points and three places better off than Chelsea, so he’s currently winning out in this one.
With so much of the season still to go, we don’t want to be getting ahead of ourselves. But we think we can pretty safely say that both Wilson and Antonio have been left with egg on their faces here. Not the first time. Won’t be the last.
