Jurgen Klopp was unhappy with the atmosphere at Anfield after his side’s 5-1 win over West Ham in the EFL Cup on Wednesday night.
The Merseyside club put in some impressive performances en route to the League Cup semi-finals, with Anfield often replying to set the tone for the team. But Klopp isn’t happy about that, telling fans to “give their tickets to someone else” if they’re not ready to make a fuss ahead of Saturday’s huge top-flight clash with Arsenal.Via Liverpool manager Paul Horst: “I don’t like the atmosphere behind me. I thought about what they wanted.
We need Anfield on Saturday. I don’t want to argue with their managers and we have to keep Anfield on its feet.
If you don’t feel well, give your ticket to someone else. Anfield has been a shadow of its former self for some time and this season could only get worse. Gary Neville shouted after Sunday’s game against Manchester United that it was the worst game he had ever seen.Wednesday night’s crowd was much better as they got behind the hosts in the quarter-finals of the EFL Cup.
Klopp’s comments will come as a surprise to many, but perhaps the Liverpool boss will want something different when the Premier League leaders come to town on Saturday.
