Liverpool news: Reds defence a mess… I’m not sure what Jurgen Klopp is coaching - Begovic
LIVERPOOL don’t look like they know how to defend under Jurgen Klopp and they are a ‘mess’.
That is the brutal verdict of Bournemouth goalkeeper Asmir Begovic.
Liverpool’s defence were put to the sword on Sunday as they were swept aside 4-1 by an in-form Tottenham at Wembley.
The Reds’ back four were left reeling as they were two goals down after just 12 minutes and from there on in, left themselves with a mountain to climb.
Begovic has waded in by criticising the nature of Liverpool’s defence, and has questioned whether Klopp is coaching them to be tighter.
“I don't they are. It doesn't look like it,” Begovic told Sky Sports’ The Debate Show.

They don't look organised. They don't look like they want to defend
“They don't look organised.
“They don't look like they want to defend.
“I look at some of their players, their first thought is just how good they can be on the ball.
“I don't think their first thought is defending.
Asmir Begovic doesn't think Jurgen Klopp is teaching Liverpool how to defend properly
“So as a unit they look all over the place.
“And the reason for that could be many reasons.
“It seems to be a little bit of a mess over there.”
