Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp called for goalkeepers to be given greater protection in their six-yard box on Friday, a day before his club takes on the Premier League's most aggressive and direct squad.

When Arsenal conceded the second goal in a 2-0 loss to Brentford last week, Klopp believed goalkeeper Bernd Leno's arms seemed to be grabbed by an opponent to prevent him from competing for a long throw-in.

Klopp questioned if goalkeepers were adequately protected during a press conference ahead of Liverpool's match against Burnley on Saturday. Given how much importance Burnley places on set pieces and balls into the box for goals, his words came at an opportune time.

Klopp remarked, "It will be intriguing to see what happens this season." “Because the poor man is the goalkeeper.” It's a different game if he's not protected in the six-yard box anymore.”
