Klopp has good news for Liverpool fans amid Sturridge fitness fears

I honestly thought today the players raised the supporters by the way they got up to Liverpool, how they put them under pressure, how they pressed them.

The draw left Liverpool five points behind Chelsea, who play away at fifth-placed Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday at White Hart Lane. Remember that Klopp knows better than you.

The handball will also be Mane’s last contribution to Liverpool’s Premier League title charge before he joins up with Senegal for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations, a sour way to sign off for the time being.

“There was no foul before the second free-kick and then penalty, there was no foul that is very hard”, he said. I don’t know how it feels when you have to do the things you have to do today.

Liverpool’s Jurgen Klopp claims the free kick leading to Sunderland’s second penalty should never have been given.

The Anfield boss had earlier expressed frustration at conceding two penalties in the match, believing a free-kick that preceded the second should not have been given. If the Chosen One wanted to get all uppity about that, he could justifiably turn on the water works, but who cares, really?

Klopp was asked as to what he thought about the penalty decisions and the German chose to give the journalist a piece of his mind regarding the legitimacy of the penalty decisions.

Moyes told reporters: “I have just said how important it is to have a good penalty kick-taker because during the season, you will get penalty kicks and you always hope that you can almost say, “This should be okay”.

“We have to support each other, all of us in each part of the team”.

Jurgen Klopp is one of the most affable managers in the Premier League but he was understandably not in his usual top form following Liverpool’s 2-2 draw at Sunderland.

The German manager provided a positive injury update on Sturridge, despite the former Chelsea man was helped to walk towards the tunnel.

The German added that he had given his players the chance to opt out of the match if they were feeling too exhausted, but none took him up on the offer. Remember that you’re not a Bitter – I don’t want to talk about this anymore. Bye.

“I have been in this business a pretty long time and the fixtures are the fixtures; somebody gives you the date and the time, and you play”. I have no idea what to say.
