Jurgen Klopp Has No Complaints As Liverpool Lose To Percy Tau’s Brighton!

Jurgen Klopp Has No Complaints As Liverpool Lose To Percy Tau‘s Brighton! Liverpool lost yet another home game in the Premier League last night.

Percy Tau did not feature at all as Brighton & Hove Albion won 1-0 at Anfield last night. This proved to be Liverpool’s second consecutive home defeat.

Burnley’s victory last week ended their 3+ year unbeaten home run. Klopp had no qualms about the defeat last night.

“First and foremost, Brighton won the game and rightly so, deserved. They were fresher than us tonight and did more good things than we did. We lost too many easy balls.” The German coach said in the post-match press conference.

“The best way to defend Brighton is to keep the ball, to play football yourself and when we did that, we had control at least but didn’t create a lot. I said now plenty of times in all the interviews outside, for me the team looked tonight – and it’s long ago we looked like this – fatigued, mentally fatigued and that leads to not the best legs as well. It was a tough week and today we were not fresh enough, that means then [not] good enough to break the formation of Brighton.

“In the end, they scored a goal, had other chances, we kind of as well, but they scored and that’s why they deserved to win” he added.

The manager exclaimed that the league table is not interesting him at the moment. He says that the log table is a “result of the results”, so he is only keen on the performances that Liverpool produce.

“The gap to City, I know, I’m manager of Liverpool and I have to say [because] you always ask and we were champions last year, so I have to say, ‘Yeah, oh my God, we want to be champions…’ Yes, we want [that], but you need the games for it, you need the performances for it, and we don’t have. So, that’s the truth as well. We fight for other things, we fight for three points.

“It is not decided yet who will get the three points on Sunday, so we have to play better and we will try as well. Then we will see. These gaps are not interesting in the moment because they are the result of the results we had already. What we can influence is the next games and we will try for that. For tonight, it was not enough – we saw that, we know that and we have to change that.” Klopp said.
