As the Reds move into the quarter finals, where they will play Manchester United, Klopp lavished praise on Danns.
He stated: The striking instincts, there is no doubt about that. There's no youth level where you don't have that. We have 10-year-olds with the striking instinct. And he showed in the final that he arrives in the right moment, so he was there three times in a final. Your second outing for your boyhood club and you arrive three times and with a bigger, longer toe, he probably scores already in a final. That he is there is cool, that the goals have the same size in the youth department is cool as well because that's why in a situation like that, chipping is really good. Unfortunately, I can tell you now already in his career he will miss chances as well, that will happen and probably in similar situations.
But for now, I cannot imagine how this week must feel for the boys. It feels pretty good for me but I know about all the problems we have around as well. They don't have to care about that, so they can just fly and they deserve that. It's the week of the Academy and I'm so happy to mention them again, just because it's exceptional. We should not forget Trey Nyoni came on tonight that looked promising as well. Not in the squad because (they are) injured, Ben Doak, who had already a few really good games for us, and Stefan Bajcetic, same age group. There is a lot to come. Conor (Bradley) we don't mention anymore in these circumstances, (Jarell) Quansah we don't mention anymore in these circumstances. It's pretty special what's happening.
It's really difficult because we unfortunately have too many games for not enough players. But so far we found somehow a solution and we have to keep doing that. We have to create when we play here an atmosphere which is super-special. The people thankfully did that again, I loved it. It was not a game in the first half where you can be ecstatic all the time but the support we got, the feeling the people created is positive. It was super-class, I loved it really. And second half was easier to go for it and then we did that and it was top. And in away games, whoever comes with us needs to try to push from a corner or wherever in the stadium to do that because it's trickier. We will see who can play on Saturday that's unfortunately really not a lot of time. They (Nottingham Forest) played tonight as well, I know, so let's see."
