Jurgen Klopp claimed that a reporter’s questions were a ‘waste of time’ during his pre-match press conference. The Liverpool boss will be preparing his side to face Premier League leaders Arsenal on Sunday afternoon and hoping that they can get back to winning ways.
‘How can you expect I give you an answer and say “two were because of that and four were because of that”. That is a real waste of time.’ When asked whether he made changes due to the Man City defeat or simply to manage player workload, Klopp fired back: ‘We had a game against City, which is an influence physically and performance-wise. It is both.
The Reds have failed to win in any of their last five matches – including a 4-1 defeat to Man City and a 0-0 draw to manager-less Chelsea on Tuesday night. Klopp made wholesale changes to his Liverpool line-up for the match against Chelsea, which raised questions from reporters at the press conference.
