It takes a special kind of person to take on Roy Keane, but Jurgen Klopp did it and won after Liverpool’s 3-1 win over Arsenal on Monday night.
Alan Shearer tried and had some success, and Mick McCarthy … well, the less said the better.
However, Klopp going against Keane might be the best we’ve seen in 2020.
Liverpool trailed off an Alexandre Lacazette goal in the first 25 minutes at Anfield before Sadio Mane responded immediately.
Andrew Robertson added the second before new signing Diego Jota scored his first goal for Liverpool to complete a dominant 3-1 victory.
Such was Liverpool’s dominance that they recorded a whopping 677 passes to Arsenal’s 295, with Virgil Van Dijk accumulating 117 of them.
So when Klopp heard Keane call Liverpool’s performance “sloppy”, he was not at all impressed.
“They left one or two opportunities that they will be disappointed in.
“I’m not sure I heard it right, it can’t be this game. This was absolutely exceptional; nothing was neglected.
“From the first second of the game, we dominate a team in shape.”
In fact, Klopp got so mad that Keane ended up being the one seemingly backing down on the Liverpool boss and trying to calm him down.
What would Sir Alex think of Roy now?
🗣️ “Did Mr. Keane say it was a sloppy performance? Maybe he’s talking about another game… ”👀
