The outgoing Liverpool manager took a swipe at broadcasters, the Premier League, administrators and FIFA.
Outgoing Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp launched a lengthy and wide-ranging attack on the state of English football after claiming the Premier League is “overworked not overrated”.
“You will all talk about it if you don’t decrease the intensity for the players. If you make of that fact that English teams are not in a final we all underperformed, I am not sure about that. “It is not overrated, it is overworked. Easy as that. You can talk about that until everyone realises that but someone obviously needs to help the people. That is a little advice from an old man on the way out.”
“I had a discussion only the other day with colleagues from my favourite TV channel that I definitely will not watch again, TNT, and the conversation I have is always, ‘They pay you, they give money to football’. It is not like that, I see it the other way around: football pays them. “You always think when I speak about it it is because of our last situation, the last game but it is a general problem.
“In the end one person cannot put it right as long as all the rest think, ‘Ah, it will be all right, they earn millions, let them play there. Let’s do the first three matchdays in America’ – all really good ideas. Alone you can’t change anything.
