“Skilled gamers simply switching off. It should drive the supervisor loopy because it’s simply schoolboy defending.
“It is the best a part of soccer, simply switching on. Liverpool did all of the laborious stuff nicely when it comes to creating probabilities, tempo, energy and high quality going ahead, however Liverpool can not seem to do the simple issues.
“Liverpool can overlook about profitable the Champions League.
“I imply, they need to have sufficient to get by means of the group, however within the knockout levels towards the Actual Madrids and all these boys, they will be laughing at Liverpool.”
Two years after Keane’s feedback, Liverpool had gained the Champions League and challenged Manchester Metropolis for the Premier League title.
Inside one other 12 months, Klopp gained the membership’s first home league title since 1990.
