Jurgen Klopp has insisted that Liverpool must be "aware" going into their Premier League match against Newcastle United this weekend.
The Reds have been in strong form since the German's arrival at Anfield in October, losing once in 11 matches under the former Borussia Dortmund manager, while the 6-1 win over Southampton earlier this week was the team's fourth straight victory in all competitions.
However, the manager said at his pre-match press conference: "I don't know about the history of Newcastle but I know Steve McClaren and his quality and his experience. We have to be aware.
"I'm still a new manager here. I can't tell you something about Newcastle. I know a bit of their problems in the last year. They thought they needed to buy players and so on. Newcastle haven't played in Europe for a while, so information in Germany was not easy to get.
"If I need to know more of Newcastle, I would take information. We have to play football against them."
The Magpies host Liverpool at St James' Park tomorrow.
