PRESS CONFERENCE UNDERWAY 13. (SOUNDBITE) (German) EINTRACHT FRANKFURT HEAD COACH, DINO TOPPMOELLER, SAYING: "They (Liverpool FC) may not have that little bit extra at the moment, for whatever reason. In recent games, they have been the better team in every match, had more chances to score in every game, and that's why we should, I would say, try to put that into perspective. We'll be facing a world-class team tomorrow, knowing full well that losing four times in a row can naturally affect you. Nevertheless, I believe Liverpool are the favourites, of course." 14. PRESS CONFERENCE UNDERWAY 15. (SOUNDBITE) (German) EINTRACHT FRANKFURT HEAD COACH, DINO TOPPMOELLER, SAYING: "We have a young team, a team that naturally wants to prove itself now. We played against Atlético, we played against Bayern and saw that these teams are still a step ahead, which is absolutely fine. And now we'll see how far we are tomorrow, whether we've perhaps learned relatively quickly from our mistakes. But it's still a different characteristic of the game. I expect Liverpool to have more possession than us, and we will choose an approach that we feel will enable us to defeat them." 16. PRESS CONFERENCE UNDERWAY 17. (SOUNDBITE) (German) EINTRACHT FRANKFURT HEAD COACH, DINO TOPPMOELLER, SAYING: "Michael Zetterer will be in goal tomorrow. We made this decision after a few discussions and looking back a little. Why? Because we feel that it might be important for Kaua (Santos) to take a step back for now. He has had a lot to deal with recently and we feel that he may need this step back to regain the ease and relaxed attitude that makes him so strong. And, of course, we are in the fortunate position of having three top goalkeepers, both last season and this season." 18. PRESS CONFERENCE UNDERWAY 19. (SOUNDBITE) (German) EINTRACHT FRANKFURT HEAD COACH, DINO TOPPMOELLER, SAYING: "I think it's also important to say in this context that the number of goals conceded was definitely too high, as we've already said, but that it didn't really have much to do with the goalkeeper. You have to be honest about that. And that's why it doesn't matter who's in goal. It's always about the collective, and that will be the decisive factor tomorrow, in the coming weeks and, in fact, always." 20.
