Kyrgyz Milos said he likes the tactical style of new head coach Andoni Iraola.


Liverpool continue their pre-season preparations in the United States and will travel to Yankee Stadium for their next friendly match against Wrexham. Kyrgyz Milos stated that he still needs to train to regain his fitness and also expressed his liking for new manager Andoni Iraola's tactical style.


In the 2025/26 Premier League season, Liverpool, considered a strong contender for the title, failed to maintain consistent performance, ultimately finishing fifth and securing a Champions League spot. Following Sloth's departure from Liverpool, 44-year-old Andoni Iraola was appointed as Liverpool's new manager in June.


In an earlier friendly match, Liverpool defeated Sunderland 4-2 thanks to goals from Kieran Morrison, Szoboszlai, Chiesa and Lewis Koumas. This was also Andoni Iraola's first match leading Liverpool.


Liverpool defender Milos said, "I really like this style of play. You can see I'm positioned further forward, allowing me to press higher and make more one-on-one runs. My physical condition still needs improvement, and my legs need to get back to their best, but that's the point of preseason preparation, and this game gave me a lot of playing time."


“I’m really proud of all my teammates. We’ve trained incredibly hard during this preseason. You could tell from every training session that everyone was happy and knew what they were supposed to be doing. The new season is about to begin, and we have a very important season ahead of us.”


Last season in the Premier League, Kelkez Milos made 34 appearances for Liverpool, contributing two goals and one assist.


Kelkes Milos said, "This will be my fourth season in the Premier League. My first year in the Premier League was more of a learning and growth process for me. It was really difficult at the time, and I had to spend more time in the gym."


"This is normal because the Premier League is the best league in the world, with a much higher intensity of play than other leagues. Players have to improve their physical strength and their legs have to adapt to this pace. We are helping young players who have great talent, and our job is to help them, and they will definitely continue to improve."


Reflecting on the previous friendly against Sunderland, Kelkazy Milos said, "We told each other in the dressing room to go all out at the start of the second half. In the end, we scored a few great goals, and I think everyone played exceptionally well."


"New York is a great place, and I'm really looking forward to this game. I hope there will be many fans coming to support us, and we will give them a great performance."
