Jurgen Klopp has told TNT Sports to “take me off your list of subscribers”, saying the gruelling fixture schedule is responsible for English clubs falling short in Europe this season. The outgoing Liverpool boss warned that the demands placed on elite players have taken a heavy toll and believes that broadcasters are partly to blame.
Jurgen Klopp has told TNT Sports to “take me off your list of subscribers”, saying the gruelling fixture schedule is responsible for English clubs falling short in Europe this season. The outgoing boss warned that the demands placed on elite players have taken a heavy toll and believes that broadcasters are partly to blame. Advertisement “Seeing lose 4-2 last night means if they go out no English team will be in any kind of European final,” Klopp said.
Yes, other countries have really good teams, no doubt about that, but it’s a sign. “Years ago I think we had four English teams in quarter-finals. And then we take that and say, ‘Yeah, it’s the quality of the Premier League, let’s make more of it!’ We have to change that approach. You always think when I speak about it, it’s because of our last situation. No, it’s a general problem.” Liverpool’s 12:30pm kick-off at last Saturday was their fourth game in the space of 10 days.
