Liverpool – ManCity: Guardiola critic Klopp
There was a need to talk between the two coaches before the start. The reason: Klopp had falsely claimed that ManCity had two weeks off due to corona. However, ManCity was only free between December 26th and January 3rd.
“Jürgen made a mistake, he has to look at the calendar again. I am surprised. I would not have thought that Jürgen is a kind of coach who makes such comments,” said Guardiola.
“We had Corona, were out for a week and played at Stamford Bridge with 14 players. Maybe I’m wrong, maybe it was three or four weeks. If I see Jürgen, I’ll ask him. I would have that from him not expected. He knows that is not true. Neither team had two weeks off, “he added.
