It is always tough, always difficult playing against Klopp's teams.
Chess holds its master in its own bonds, shackling the mind and brain so that the inner freedom of the very strongest must suffer.

We cannot go after thousands of men until we learn how to win one.
Getafe is an uncomfortable rival for Barca and for anyone. They are experts in winning second balls.
All the great captains have performed vast achievements by conforming with the rules of art--by adjusting efforts to obstacles.
