VERY Sad Mouricio Pochettino news has been announced this evening after Wolverhampton 4: 2 shocking Defeat

Jurgen Klopp was furious with the decision to send off Ibrahima Konate when he took aim at Anthony Taylor, but admitted Liverpool couldn’t complain about their defeat.

The Reds manager saw his side lose in north London for the second time this season, following a contentious defeat at Tottenham. Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard scored second-half goals to secure the victory, leaving the visitors with 10 men.

Konate was sent off in the closing minutes after receiving a second yellow card, as Liverpool endured a miserable afternoon in the city. Klopp mentioned that the man in the middle, Taylor, had previously sent him off while commenting on the official.

He told Sky Sports: “A lot of things went against us today. This referee awarded me a red card against Manchester City for a wrestling incident involving Bernardo Silva and Mo Salah. Today, the identical thing occurred with Jota, but he did not receive a red card. It’s amazing, then, to hold Havertz on Konate for the first yellow card. The referee then issues a yellow card to Konate after Havertz goes down. Gabriel did the same to Nunez with no yellow card.”

Regarding their performance, the German added, “In general, we can admit that Arsenal deserves the three points.” The circumstances were a little unusual. Our goal was similar to the cup game. In the cup game, we had much more opportunities. We scored at halftime despite having no shots on goal, but a goal is a little unusual. We had to adapt in several situations today.

“We got into the game, had some close calls, and then came the second half. But if you can’t keep it open, Arsenal might get anxious. The red card was ineffective, and we had to drastically alter our strategy.”

Ibrahima Konate received his marching orders at Arsenal.

The setback allows Arsenal to reduce the deficit, and should Manchester City win their two games in hand, they will leapfrog Liverpool.

Klopp wants to go on a strong note, having recently confirmed his departure from Anfield at the conclusion of the season. Despite his outstanding performances, the German has only won the Premier League once, in 2020. Liverpool has gone close on multiple times, leading title races to the final day only to be defeated.

Another league title may come alongside a Carabao Cup final, the FA Cup, and the Europa League.
