Jurgen Klopp ruling out the third Wolves goal on the basis they had been defensive and started playing on the counter-attack was certainly not the first time the Liverpool manager exposed himself as the sorest of losers.
“Man United had momentum in the first half because they were purely there to defend us. Whoever said before the game that this game is always built up like a mountain and stuff like that and then we come here and they only have to defend. So one day I will really wait for the day when they have to make the game against us and we defend – and let’s see how that is.
“Since I’ve been in England it’s pretty much been like that. We come here put it all together, attitude, tactical defensive shapes. Eight players defending, with the quality of Man United, it’s not easy. “I’m not the person who should be frustrated by United’s style. In the last years they just defend, that’s how it is, it’s no criticism, it’s just a fact. We always play against the wall. We need to do better, but it is how it is. I don’t think Man United can play like this if the other team doesn’t have the ball as much.
“We play very often against a team like this. When you think United v Liverpool you think both teams attacking, but it’s not.”“soaked up pressure really well” and Liverpool “didn’t create too many chances,” adding: “I take it as a compliment, that we’ve defended so well. When the opposition manager is frustrated, that’s a good sign our boys have done well. I think we’ve been closest to winning both games against Liverpool, so I don’t know what the problem has been.
