Although it wasn't quite as a bad as a slip that cost the chance of winning the EPL for the first time :whistling:

Ag dont stress about that...we have the global pull and world class players to be able to do that sort of stuff..

They have to worry about the mighty Matip retiring :crylaugh:

Seems Klopp was doing all the moaning and stats don't lie.

Lol, I watched the interview. You Mancs and the manc sided media have decided to put a salty spin on it.

He simply stated, using the word long ball rather than Ibras 'we were more direct' what Ibra also said.

His frustration was clearly with us being unable to manage the switch in tactic and not the tactic itself.

Any link to his post-match interview? Haven't seen it.

I enjoyed his prematch interview more. He said we did not welcome you guys in the program and when he sat down to read it there was no coffee only tea in the can and then something like it's starting already. I love little stuff like that.

I'm fairly sure BBC news (app) also mentioned something about Klopp moaning about "direct football".

Those three quality teams with CL while the average Joes play one a week...they will run themselves out come end of the season when quality is needed
