Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp knows that his players want to win on Thursday night.
The Reds trail their Europa League quarter final opponents Atalanta by a 3-0 margin after the first leg at home.
But Klopp believes his players are keen to produce a much-improved performance against Atalanta in the away leg this week.
Asked if he would have any words of inspiration, he stated: “What I remember from that time [against Barcelona] is I usually don't prepare these kind of things like that, especially not a day before or four years before or whatever.
“What I will say to the boys I will think about tomorrow, but definitely nothing about these kind of things were said in the press conference before. I remember I said if we fail then let's fail in the most beautiful way – and that's exactly how I see it again. But, I said it already, we want to win the game – and if we want to win the game then we better play good. If we play good we have a chance to win it and then we will see. It is exactly like that.
“What I said after the game [last week] as well: directly after the game, everybody in the stadium in Liverpool – the Liverpool supporters, the Atalanta supporters, players and our staff – thought that's it.
“But now it is a week later and I don't think everybody thinks it is already decided. We are here and we can be good, but obviously we can be not so good as well so let's see what we can put on the pitch tomorrow. My team meeting will not happen in front of the world here in the press conference, it will happen there and if we win the players will find a reason to tell the world what I said and if we lose nobody will want to hear what I said. That's it."
