Liverpool are still in free fall after their loss to Manchester City and criticism of Klopp's team has not been long in coming.
One of the fiercest has been Roy Keane's. The former Manchester United captain has lashed out at the 'reds', whom he has accused of indulging in winning the title last season and making too many excuses for the bad time they are currently experiencing.
“We talked before the game about them making many excuses, For me they have been bad champions,” Keane began commenting on Sky Sports.
“We talked about some kind of downfall (this season), they won the league last year and they believed their own hype and thought they could beat other teams. When you win the title, you think, 'Can we get it again?' I never thought that about this group. They said, “Let's enjoy this.” I never heard any of the players say “Let's do it again.” Now we are talking about finishing in the top four and that is his goal, ”added the Irishman.
Keane's taunt did not stop here and the former midfielder once again lashed out at the excuses that in his opinion Klopp makes when things are not going well.
“You keep telling me that Liverpool is a huge club. If you are a big club, you have to deal with setbacks. If you want to see Man City and the way they have been, you can say that they are losing their two best players (De Bruyne and Agüero). Liverpool still had their best attacking players on the pitch, they still had the best goalkeeper. International players in the midfield ”.
“Klopp said that maybe the goalkeeper's feet were cold. It's excuse after excuse. Go and go. Just keep going. It's Liverpool Football Club, if they continue to behave like this, it will be another 30 years before they win another title, ”Keane said.
