Fans all say the same thing about Jurgen Klopp's brutally honest interview after Liverpool defeat

Plenty of Liverpool fans were saying the same thing about Jurgen Klopp's post-match interview on Sunday.

Liverpool's Premier League title bid suffered a major blow on Sunday when Klopp's side fell to a surprise 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace at Anfield.

Eberechi Eze gave the visitors an early lead when he finished off a slick team move, albeit enabled by slack Liverpool marking.

Liverpool piled on the pressure after that though and took 21 shots on goal, but nobody was able to find a way past Dean Henderson.

The Palace goalkeeper and his defenders made some excellent interventions, but poor finishing also played a part in Liverpool's downfall.

Darwin Nunez, Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah and Curtis Jones all missed clear-cut opportunities when it seemed harder to miss than score, much to the exasperation of their manager.

Klopp cut a frustrated figure all afternoon, with TV cameras picking up his reaction to Palace's goal and his side's misses.

Klopp is usually upbeat and expressive in his post-match interviews, and can be fiery when things go against his side.

However, on Sunday fans noticed that he seemed totally deflated and run-down after the result that left his side two points behind Premier League leaders Manchester City with just six games left to play.


"He's absolutely done isn't he, looks beyond drained, don't think we will see Klopp back in management for a good while," one fan said of Klopp, who will step down from his position as manager at the end of the season.

"He looks absolutely done," a fan agreed, while another commented: "Yep he knows he's wrecked man, I think the change is coming at the right time."

A fourth Liverpool fan suggested that the "players have disappointed him," as they missed so many chances.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Klopp said: "We lost the game and we feel really really rubbish. Now we need a bit of time to process that because it's a really bad moment.

"It's the second home game in a row we've lost, we are not used to that. We'll have to see how we react to that.

"We have to work on that definitely... we will do that of course, but I cannot now stand here and say 'that's it, that's a starting point for us for the rest of the season', it doesn't feel [like that] in this moment."
