Liverpool face more bad news as Mamadou Sakho leaves Anfield on crutches

“I turned around and, I watch my team and I felt pretty alone in that moment”.

“[It’s a] new manager, new system, we’re just trying to build and keep the confidence in the team”. When I saw the squad – when on my holiday – I thought “good job, I can work with this”.

“Today is a bad feeling it was not necessary to lose this game”, former Borussia Dortmund coach Klopp said.

“If we did the right things in this game, then it would have been a very important game”.

Palace then nearly found themselves a goal down as a Liverpool corner was met by substitute Dejan Lovren, but his downward header could not squeeze past the Eagles keeper. That’s how we have to play, we made many good things.

Sakho picked up the problem in Liverpool’s 2-1 Premier League defeat to Crystal Palace on Sunday and will undergo an MRI scan on Monday to determine the extent of the injury. “We have to learn that we are responsible and with 82 minutes gone, nobody can leave the stadium”.

The loss to Crystal Palace was Klopp’s first defeat since becoming Liverpool manager, and he will have to wait until after the global break to play his next fixture against league leaders Manchester City.

These flaws were pointed out by analysts during the game, who also praised Crystal Palace’s gusto and resourcefulness.

“City dropped points, we dropped points, Liverpool lost to Palace, it just shows what a hard league this is”.

“I am not disappointed about this, the fans leaving, they have reasons”, said the German.

Meanwhile, Klopp will be hoping for positive news on the injury Mamadou Sakho suffered on Sunday. Lallana’s backheel of Nathaniel Clyne’s cross did just enough to divert the ball away from Palace’s defenders and into the path of Coutinho, who bent in a shot at the far post.

“There are many games, but the Europa League is not a problem for English teams”, said Klopp after the 1-0 win in Kazan, relayed by the Press Association (via This Is Anfield).

Jurgen Klopp has had to deal with the fact that his best strikers like Daniel Sturridge and Danny Ings are out injured, while Divock Origi has failed to impress.

“Our ambition was rewarded with that late goal”.

“I really think he has been underestimated throughout his career and I wouldn’t have said that until I managed him”, he added.
