Arsenal boss Unai Emery has admitted his admiration for Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool.
The two Premier League heavyweights have both won their opening two games of the 2019/20 campaign - the only two teams to do so - and meet in a mouthwatering clash on Saturday night.
He said: It is one very good example I spoke about them last year, my experience from outside, and how they have improved.
Now I think they have a very strong style, their mentality is very strong and they are adding titles.
We are working on our way to create a big mentality, but we also need time. They have an advantage on us in this way.
But I really appreciate their work a lot, their performance is amazing, their spirit and quality, they are a team who can feel strong.
Right now the distance between Manchester City , Liverpool and us continues to be big, but we have a chance to reduce that distance.
Last year we were very strong at home: I want to repeat and improve that way we created, but also showing our best competitive spirit away from home."
