Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has enjoyed a swipe at Manchester United after touching down in Thailand today.

A press conference was held at the airport shortly after the Reds squad touched down for the first leg of their pre-season tour. United are already there after flying in on Friday.

But before any of the press could get a word in for the boss or his players, Klopp jumped in with his own teasing swipe: "First question I have...did it look like this yesterday when Manchester was here as well?"

A few cries of "no, no" could be heard in response.

On the United clash, Klopp added: "Usually football matches are the most important thing for us. But in this specific case it's really more for the people.

"We have 37 players - all generations here - and we have to use all of them. The boys who were on international duty in the summer only arrived today pretty much. They cannot play too long but we will try to give them a few minutes as well.

"Manchester United. New manager. Trained a little bit longer than us. Not sure, but might be in a better situation in the moment. We see it as an important test because it's against United - and we don't play friendlies!"
