Manchester United are still in contention for four trophies this season and hope to bid farewell to manager Jurgen Klopp.
Klopp has announced he will step down next summer after almost nine years as Liverpool manager. But he does not want his impending departure to be a distraction for the rest of the season and will focus on Liverpool’s next league game against Brentford. Here at Mirror Football we round up all the latest Liverpool news. Jurgen Klopp made his blue card feelings clear after receiving a yellow card for his angry reaction.
Unfortunately, the win against Burnley was canceled out by an injury to Trent Alexander-Arnold. Trent Alexander-Arnold has suffered again from the knee problem that saw him miss three games last month.”That’s right. He felt it. “He put it on the pitch, so we have to make an assessment,” Klopp said in his post-match press conference. In a personal interview with Sky Sports, he said: “The knee area is the same. “It’s not a bad thing, but he felt it again and we have to look at it and evaluate it.” Trent said it was fine, but I had to be careful taking it because I felt it wasn’t fine.
“Klopp’s post-Liverpool projectsIf Klopp does leave Liverpool at the end of the season, the first thing he will do is help round out his two assets.Klopp has vowed to take at least a year off from football to focus on family life, including continuing work on his two properties in Wiesbaden and Majorca. He admits the property in Mallorca has been his biggest headache so far, saying: “It’s not bloody over yet and I’m still paying the bills.” Klopp and his wife Ulla bought the property for £3.4m in 2022, but renovation work has been delayed and the 56-year-old now plans to “fit in”.
The Burnley manager was booked against Liverpool, meaning he will be suspended when the Clarets play Arsenal next weekend.Klopp also received a yellow card from referee Tim Robinson, and after the game, Kompany only showed him the yellow card after his team-mate told him he had arrested the referee. “I think I got the yellow card because I think the referee looked for me and Jurgen Klopp should have focused on getting the yellow card,” he said.
“I opened my arms. That’s what I’ve done in a lot of games. But suddenly a card appears. suddenly. I am now suspended for the next game. I should have known it was just a way to level things, it didn’t make sense, but we had to keep going. “Don’t complain.”
