VERY Sad Mouricio Pochettino news has been announced this evening after Wolverhampton 4: 2 shocking Defeat
Although he took aim at Anthony Taylor, Jurgen Klopp was incensed at the decision to send Ibrahima Konate off, but he also acknowledged that Liverpool couldn’t be upset about their defeat.
The Reds manager witnessed his team’s second defeat in north London this season after their contentious loss to Tottenham. Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard’s goals in the second half sealed the victory, leaving the visitors with 10 men.
After receiving a second yellow card, Konate turned red in the closing moments as Liverpool had a miserable afternoon in the city. As he made his comments about the official, Klopp remarked that the man in the centre, Taylor, had already sent him off.
“A lot of things were against of us today,” he said to Sky Sports. I received a red card from this referee against Man City for a wrestling match between Bernardo Silva and Mohamed Salah. The same thing happened to Jota today, but she wasn’t given a red card. The idea of holding Havertz on Konate for the first yellow card is absurd. After Havertz is knocked down, Konate is given a yellow card by the referee. With no yellow card, Gabriel treats Nunez in the same way.”
“In general, we can admit that Arsenal deserves the three points,” the German continued, speaking about their performance. The situation was a little peculiar. Our objective was the same as it was in the cup game. We had much greater opportunities in the cup match. Despite having zero shots on goal at halftime, we managed to score the goal, which is a little unusual. We had numerous opportunities today to adjust.
“We managed to get into the game; we had near calls and crosses before the second half. But Arsenal could become a little anxious if you can’t keep it open. The red card did not assist, so we had to make numerous changes to our attempts.”
At Arsenal, Ibrahima Konate received his marching orders.

Arsenal is now able to narrow the deficit thanks to the setback, and if Manchester City wins its last two games, they will pass Liverpool.
With his recent announcement that he will be leaving Anfield at the end of the season, Klopp is hoping to go out on a positive note. Despite his outstanding work, the German has only ever won the Premier League title, which occurred in 2020. Liverpool has been thwarted on many occasions when they have come close to winning titles and have advanced to the final day.
Together with the FA Cup, Europa League, and Carabao Cup final to come, another league victory is still possible.
