Jurgen Klopp: I blame this for Liverpool dropping points against Southampton
JURGEN KLOPP has blamed the Anfield pitch for Liverpool’s sluggish display against Southampton.
Jurgen Klopp wasn't impressed with the Anfield pitch
Liverpool failed to strengthen their grip on the top four spots as they were held to a goalless draw earlier today.
James Milner missed a penalty, as the Reds were unable to break down the plucky visitors.
And Klopp thinks the pitch didn’t help matters.
“In a possession game you need to have the best circumstances if possible, especially in a home game.
“Today we couldn’t have this. It’s nobody’s fault, it’s only a description.”
Liverpool are up to third, however have played a game more than Manchester City and Manchester United, who are fourth and fifth respectively in the table.
