EPL: That is why they are in fifth place – Klopp blasts Conte’s Tottenham

Following Saturday’s 1-1 draw, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp questioned Tottenham Hotspur’s style of play.

The loss dealt a blow to Liverpool’s championship chances, as Manchester City have the opportunity to establish a three-point advantage at the top on Sunday.

Klopp’s team appeared lifeless in attack, with Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson throwing many hopeful crosses into the penalty box with little success.

Despite their dominance, it was the Spurs who had the better opportunities.

Son Heung-min put the visitors in front before Luis Diaz equalized with 20 minutes left.

After the game, Klopp said: “For all the praise for Tottenham, they won against City – the gameplay works for these games but they are still fifth and for everything they were time-wasting – it makes not easier, it’s smart but not easy.”
