Agreed. He's also very personable. I like him. Really not sure why people have an issue with him.
It's quite embarrassing how some people take offence to almost anything in football.
Fair enough, it's a comedy quote. Anyone can say "if we were a bit better we'd have won", but why take offence to it rather than just chuckle at what amounts to a daft truism?
With you on that bud.

Weird post. He's saying opportunities were there for the win (see the shot against the bar). Also not quite sure where you seem to be picking up that he's showing no dignity? Very complementary interview where, frankly, he doesn't need to give one iota about how the opposition played. His team dropped points from a winning position and he could easily have been far worse about it.
I thought klopps comments in the week about wanting a replay were a bit daft, but there's nothing to see here.

He also helped stop De Zerbi getting himself sent off, after failing to calm down after the yellow.

Klopp is very likeable to be honest. And I love watching Diaz play. I know he's a great player, but I find it very hard to like Salah.

He’s honest and straightforward and will give credit where it’s due.
and that original quote could be seen as another way of saying “we weren’t good enough to win”….. which is fair enough.
In the first half, yes I agree, but they were so much better in the second and should have been 3-1 up were it not for that hilarious miss from Gravenberch.
I also don't agree with "we were excellent". I think we were "improved" on previous weeks, but our passing isn't crisp enough, we're making 2-3 HUGE mistakes every match (including this one), and our final 3rd decision making isn't as good as it could be.
Now, every team goes through patches where we're off the boil and this is one of those patches. If we were excellent as you say, we wouldn't keep conceding goals at the rate we are and in the manner we are.
On Klopp, no problems with his post match comments. Generally he was actually pretty positive and, frankly, we're lucky he helped to calm De Zerbi down because he was about 30 seconds from another sending off. Klopp had no need to intervene to calm him down.

Klopp is a ****.
I thought that, apart from one clever turn that led directly to their first goal, Diaz was really poor yesterday
Any fan, manager or pundit who watched that game and concluded anything other than “draw is the right result” is a bit dim. Both sides made mistakes. Both sides missed a sitter that probably wins them the match. Both sides looked dangerous at times.
Klopp said it was the right result.
