First, Jürgen Klopp may celebrate a victory for his Liverpool FC over Arsenal, but then the German manager has to be upset: a legend of archrival Manchester United had seen some things differently than Klopp. He doesn’t like it at all.
Jurgen Klopp still had to be upset. “Did I hear you right, Mr. Keane said we had a sloppy performance tonight?” Asked the Liverpool FC coach on Sky Sports in the direction of expert Roy Keane. The 49-year-old former Manchester United icon made it clear he was only referring to moments in the Reds’ 3-1 game Monday night at Anfield Road over Arsenal. “He may be talking about another game, it couldn’t have been this one. Sorry,” Klopp said.
The win over the Gunners marked the third victory for the English soccer champions in the third game of the new season. On goal difference alone, Liverpool are only in second place behind former champion Leicester City.
“Nothing was sloppy, absolutely nothing,” Klopp grumbled. “That is an incredible description of the game, it was extraordinary.” Klopp’s team was initially behind due to a goal from Alexandre Lacazette (minute 25). With a double, Sadio Mané (28th) and Andrew Robertson (34th) started the turning point soon after. Liverpool’s third goal came from new signing Diogo Jotto two minutes before the end.
Klopp emphasized that his team was dominant from the start against a team that was 100 percent fit. “You have to be very careful and not get hit by a counterattack.” He loved every second, said the 53-year-old German Liverpool manager, who will meet Arsenal again next Thursday in the League Cup at home.
