You do it, but if you could, you would do it in the summer,\u201d Klopp stated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is a reason why you sign a player. The reason is the quality that he has. The reason is the way that he is playing the game. With Luis, where it has been really special is that when we saw him we knew that he would fit in immediately.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is really difficult usually but because he did not have to change, that is why we have a really confident boy here. He was in a really good moment with Porto, playing good for Colombia, and so he came here full of confidence. But what we tried to make sure is that he does not lose that because of the playbook as we tell him that he has to do this and he has to do that. We want him to be natural.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.101greatgoals.com\/football-betting-tips\/match-previews\/football-predictions\/brazil-vs-chile-betting-tips-conmebol-world-cup-qualifier-preview-predictions-odds\/\">Brazil vs Chile betting tips: CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifier preview, predictions &amp; odds<\/a><\/h3>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.101greatgoals.com\/news\/watch-lionel-messis-top-10-greatest-goals-of-all-time\/\">Watch: Lionel Messi\u2019s top 10 greatest goals of all time<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jurgen Klopp has been speaking about why Liverpool chose to sign Luis Diaz in the January window.
