Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has told the club’s official website that he is facing a problem in training.
What’s the story?
Klopp’s Liverpool hammered Watford 5-0 in the Premier League yesterday.
It was one of the best performances from the Reds so far this season.
Mohamed Salah scored a wonder-goal – again – and Roberto Firmino bagged a hat-trick.
Speaking after the match, while praising Salah, Liverpool boss Klopp said that one of the problems he is facing is lack of time to train with his players.
Klopp told Liverpool’s official website: “Our little problem is that we don’t have too much time for training, so usually we recover and we don’t play.
“That means we don’t see that often in training because we just don’t have time for it.”
Does Jurgen Klopp have a point?
We know that Liverpool manager Klopp – who earns £16 million per year (£307,692 per week) as salary, according to The Daily Mail – has issues with a lot of things.
Before the game against Watford on Saturday, Klopp criticised the broadcasters for the 12:30pm kickoff time.
While some would criticise Klopp for moaning, others would empathise with him.
In regard to Klopp’s comments about not having enough time to train, we do empathise with him.
Liverpool do have quite a congested fixture list.
It does not help that the Reds could not field Brazilian duo Alisson and Fabinho against Watford.
For a team to perform to the best of their ability, the players need to train, and train well.
International breaks do not help, and neither do early kickoff times which lead to key players missing.
