Tonight's Champions League group stage game at Anfield will be Gerets' first match as the new manager of Marseille and it's one he's eagerly looking forward to.

"What a fantastic opportunity it is to start off your career here at Anfield against a team like Liverpool in the Champions League," said the Belgian, who managed Galatasary against the Reds in last season's competition.

"They are one of the best teams in Europe with a top-draw manager who's proved himself with everything he's achieved in Europe. They deserve all of our respect."
