Jurgen Klopp demands Liverpool are given three points if Man Utd fans get tonight's game postponed

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes his side should be given all three points if Manchester United fans get Monday evening's game postponed. Check out his comments below:

A clash between the two sides in May 2021 was forced to be rearranged after United fans protested against the Glazer family's ownership of the club.

Supporters are expected to protest once again after a dismal summer and poor start to the campaign, although staff at Old Trafford should be better prepared this time around.

Klopp addressed the prospect of a repeat incident in his pre-match press conference and was brutally honest.

"Plans for the game not happening? Yes, going home on the bus," Klopp explained per BBC Sport.

"I really hope it will not happen but if it does happen I think we get the points.

"We have nothing to do with the situation and if the supporters want the game not happening, then we cannot just rearrange the game again and fit it in somewhere in an incredibly busy season.

"People tell us we are fine, we go there and play the game hopefully and go home. But in a situation like this, always the other team should get the points because they have nothing to do with it and they have prepared for it."

Last year's contest was in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic and expected to be played behind closed doors.

However, thousands of supporters turned up to protest just weeks after the failed European Super League proposal.

That, coupled with the Glazers' lack of investment and care since taking over in 2005, saw tensions boil over.

Some managed to get onto the Old Trafford pitch and others protested outside the Lowry Hotel, where United players stay before home games.

United boss Erik ten Hag was asked about potential protests and explained: "I can only say the owners want to win - and the fans, we want them behind the club.

"I can understand sometimes but I am not that long in the club that I can see all the backgrounds, but we have to be unified and fight together."

Liverpool would go on to win the rearranged fixture 4-2, 11 days later.

The Red Devils are currently 19th in the Premier League after losing their opening two games.

Ahead of the game, Casemiro is expected to be presented following a £60 million move from Real Madrid.

He is United's fourth signing of the transfer window after Tyrell Malacia, Christian Eriksen and Lisandro Martinez.

United reportedly want to sign four more before the window slams shut on September 1.
