Liverpool’s coach, Jurgen Klopp tore into his players for not producing a strong enough performance in their defeat to Leicester city. A manager-less Leicester City defeated Liverpool that had a manager running up and down, yelling at everybody. Leicester City produced a performance similar to the one that propelled them to the league title last season.
“It was not good enough in the beginning, it was not good enough in the middle and it was not good enough in the end,” Klopp told a news conference after the Leicester defeat. “I think it was 100 percent clear what happens here tonight from the Leicester side – back to the roots, the line up was clear.
“It was clear how emotional the game will be because if Leicester doesn’t show emotion tonight then that would have been really strange.
“It was not that intense but we were not even ready for this. We tried to be absolutely ready for the first second but, obviously, we tried not enough, with the wrong tools or whatever. The first goal looked like a friendly game — a player down, a throw in, a header and one pass.”
Leicester City began the post-Ranieri era with an impressive 3-1 win against Liverpool. Jamie Vardy found his goal-scoring boots that Ranieri had probably seized by scoring twice either side of Danny Drinkwater’s goal.
