José Mourinho was quick to react to his team's defeat at Anfield. The Portuguese coach spoke to Amazon cameras after the game against Liverpool, who won the game in the last minute thanks to a goal from Firmino, and said: “I told Klopp that the best team lost, but he didn't agree. It's his opinion. If I had behaved like him in the band, I'm out. Is that animated? For some reason, I am different “.
In addition, Mourinho analyzed the Tottenham game: “We have been very close to winning but we have missed the opportunities. We had the game under control, a draw would have been a bad result, so you can imagine how we feel about a loss“.
Later, the Portuguese explained how he saw the game on Tottenham's social networks: “If it had been a draw I would not be happy, because it would have been the least we deserved. People love to talk about the possession, for me what matters is what you do when you have the ball. And we had opportunities when they suffered. “
Klopp: “Mourinho? I thought you were joking”
Meanwhile, the Liverpool coach did not want to deepen the duel with Mourinho: “I was not at all heated. He wasn't happy because he told me that the best team had lost, and I thought he was joking! But i wasn't. So that's all”. “We played a really good game against a superior team that is a monster of the counterattack. You lose a ball and there is an 80% chance it will end up in your goal, “Klopp said of Tottenham's footballing attitudes.
The both of the victory was to Firmino's credit. “I love talking about Bobby's goals, but it always sounds like we're shocked! Oh, Bobby scored!” It is not so weird that it ticks. He is a top-level player and scores goals, but he has some things to do for us that sometimes keep him out of the box. I couldn't be happier for him. And for us because it was a top goal and very important“said the German. Although the Reds are solo leaders, Klopp does not rule out the Spurs: “They are one hundred percent one of the favorites because of the quality they have and the way they play. They will be there until the end of the season. “
