?Jurgen Klopp was extremely pleased with his sides performance after they cruised to a 3-0 win over Middlesbrough on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

Two goals from Adam Lallana and a further strike for Divock Origi helped the Reds bounce back from a disappointing result at home to the Hammers on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Klopp, speaking to\u00a0?Sky Sports,\u00a0said:\u00a0“Good passing game, in possession, strong, good formation for second balls and counter pressing.\u00a0<\/inline>Maybe not clinical enough in and around the box, a few situations where some would say we should try to shoot.<\/inline><\/p>\n

“But 3-0 against Middlesbrough is more than we could have expected before the game, so everything is good.”<\/p>\n

Jurgen Klopp made the bold decision to drop Loris Karius for the game after he was heavily criticised for his recent performances and his replacement in Simon Mignolet helped the Reds keep a clean sheet.<\/p>\n

Klopp went on to say:\u00a0“We’ve had a few clean sheets, not so often, but Simon did a good job, but I don’t think it was the most difficult game for a goalkeeper tonight, which is always a good sign, but he was concentrated, so everything was good.”<\/inline><\/p>\n

Now at the start of a very busy Christmas period, Klopp believes they can keep the intensity and put pressure on Chelsea.<\/inline><\/p>\n

Klopp said: “<\/inline>Look, what means pressure?\u00a0Really, difficult situations are other things in life, it’s better to play football and try to collect points.<\/inline><\/p>\n

“It’s quite intense, but the lads showed again today that we can cope with each situation. A very, very young bench, but still a really good side on the pitch, and to be really successful you need to have a bit of luck, especially with injuries.<\/p>\n

“We haven’t had much so far, but hopefully everything will be good.”<\/p>\n
