The German is hoping to land his first silverware since moving to Anfield but is expecting a difficult game against Manuel Pellegrini's men who he feels are in good form
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says he is "greedy" for the League Cup as he prepares to take on Manchester City at Wembley on Sunday.
The German is expecting a tough test against a City side that looked back on top form in their midweek Champions League win over Dynamo Kiev.
Klopp is hoping to land his first trophy with the Reds after just five months in charge against a side coached by Manuel Pellegrini who is set to leave the club at the end of the season.
"Man City will do something else and Manuel Pellegrini can do something else. That’s it, that’s how it is in football, nothing is for all time. You have to accept it," he told reporters.
"City are in a good moment and it will be a very difficult game, but I am greedy and I want to win the cup."
The former Borussia Dortmund coach still has decisions to make over his squad, with yet more off-season signings expected at Anfield.
But Klopp said money was not a worry, insisting there were other ways to build a strong squad.
"I am patient enough. I would like to win every game and I am really, really, really disappointed after a defeat," he added
"But next morning the sun shines again. You have the chance to use it, this defeat and that’s what I love in this job.
"It's not about transfers. Right player, big money, I don't care. If we have it take it, use it. If we don't have it, don't say we have not enough money. Try a different way. That's all."
