Liverpool is back on the winning track, but the problems remain. The Reds smashed the Rangers 7-1 in the Champions League before they won at home against title contenders Manchester City, causing them the first defeat of the season. But the game was eruptions both on and off the pitch. Erling Haaland’s goal was overturned by VAR, Diogo Jota got seriously injured and Jurgen Klopp got the red card. Consequently, Manchester City’s bus was attacked after the match, and Liverpool fans threw coins at Pep Guardiola during the game.Enraged Klopp charged by FA for the red card against CityYesterday, Jurgen Klopp was officially charged for improper conduct by the FA, but will remain at the bench for tonight’s game with West Ham. It is expected that an eventual touchline ban will be active for the next round’s game against Nottingham Forrest. The German tactician already admitted the guilt for barking at the official, but still got the support from today’s ‘enemy’, West Ham coach David Moyes.“Firstly, I hope Klopp is in the dugout opposite because part of this job is that you want to play against the best and you want to go and compete against them. If you were in the position, you would probably feel the same but we’ve all got great respect for referees, the work they have to do. I hope in a way they understand that 90 minutes or a bit longer, we can sometimes lose our heads here or there a little bit. I don’t think you should really be asking me a question about Jurgen Klopp because I can’t speak for Jurgen Klopp. If you ask me a question about managers, yes, I am really keen to talk about that. For 90 minutes or so, it becomes a really emotional game. Sometimes, you can change your character from maybe what your true character is, but I think if we stood there and did nothing, I think our supporters, the public, you, would probably the questioning why not. Actually, I think if you look at the incident why he got angry, he was correct wasn’t he?” said Moyes at the press conference.Klopp: ‘I deserved the red card’Apart from being charged for improper conduct, Klopp had to answer to another question not concerned directly with football and the upcoming game with West Ham. The German was very loud ahead of the City game and tried to find excuses for the bad start of the season, and pointed out at Manchester City and Newcastle, who have rich Arab owners, as the clubs who can do ‘whatever they want financially’, because of their ownership model.Injury plague spreads – two more big names are questionable for the World Cup in QatarNow he was accused of ‘borderline xenophobic comments’, but chose to explain it as a result of a misunderstanding, because he is a non-native English speaker.“’I know what I thought when I said it, if someone misunderstands that I cannot change that. I have to be careful. I know I’m not always careful, I just answer and say what I think. I try to do that in the future as well. Usually it’s never my aim to blame anybody – I just talk about things. I say what I know about it or judge how I see it. Nothing of the things that were made of were my intention. We don’t have to be best friends with other clubs but people don’t want to be friends with us” said Klopp, who took way more time to deal with his own plight, rather on focusing on the game ahead. Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota are now long term injured players, along with Juve’s on loan player Arthur Melo, and Liverpool sold Mane, Minamino, Origi a trio which can play on that position, leaving Klopp with a limited choice or a possibility of tactic formation for tonight’s game.PREMIER LEAGUE – MATCHDAY 12TuesdayBrighton – Nottingham Forest 0-0Crystal Palace – Wolverhampton 2-1 (0-1)/Eze 47, Zaha 71 – Traore 30/Wednesday21:30: (2.85) Bournemouth (3.20) Southampton (2.81)21:30: (4.90) Brentford (3.60) Chelsea (1.79)21:30: (1.51) Liverpool (4.60) West Ham (7.50)21:30: (1.68) Newcastle (3.80) Everton (6.25)22:15: (2.55) Man.Utd.
