Besides being of German descent, what have these two got in common ? Both of them are not gracious enough when their teams don’t win,and should give more credit to the opponents. Chelsea failed to beat Burnley, even though they had enough chances to win three games. Tuchel then went public saying Burnley were lucky and didn’t deserve the draw. Following that immature outburst , Klopp then blamed the referee for not giving a foul on his goalkeeper when West Ham scored from a corner kick. Klopp obviously saw the incident very clearly from 60 yards away through a group of players ,in the crowded penalty area. Why don’t these so called elite managers just say their team weren’t quite good enough on the day ?
In klopp’s case, his defence was poor without Van Dijk. Now he’s back, it’s still poor. Nothing has changed at all. Still very vulnerable in the air, especially from set pieces. That’s what he should be thinking about, instead, like his German counterpart, blaming everyone else except themselves. These minor teams ARE allowed to get a decent result now and again, when it’s least expected.
