In the first game as English champions, Jürgen Klopp experienced a debacle with Liverpool FC. After the game, he reacts annoyed. His mood could soon improve. Bayern Munich’s Thiago should face a change.
MIistermacher Jürgen Klopp reacted annoyed to a reporter’s questions after Liverpool’s 4-0 defeat at Manchester City. “If you want to turn the story so that we were not concentrated, then do it,” said the Liverpool coach visibly irritated at Sky Sports. “We didn’t act like someone who became champion a week ago – it was all good.”
The reporter had asked Klopp if the 0: 4 should be seen in connection with the title win. That annoyed the German coach. “I saw a brilliant attitude. I saw a fight, ”said the 53-year-old somewhat annoyed. “They used their chances and we didn’t. Of course, City deserved 100 percent of the win, but a 5-3 would have been possible. Now it’s 4-0 and we have to accept that. ”
Last year’s champion Man City, who is still 20 points behind the Reds in the Premier League table, caused the highest with Kevin De Bruyne (25th minute) with a penalty, Raheem Sterling (35th) and Phil Foden (45th) Halftime deficit for Liverpool for over five years. “City is incredible,” said Klopp. “I’ve seen their games, they haven’t played a bad game all season.
