Jürgen Klopp has plenty of recent form for touchline antics, but just how far does the Liverpool coach have to go before it’s announced that Klopp has lost the plot? Do football managers not have to guard against bringing the game into disrepute?
Last night the Liverpool boss was at it again, this time screaming at Sean Dyche, although Klopp told Sky Sports that “I didn’t start it”.

Winners losing.. It’s not in their genetics…… Show me a good loser, and I’ll show you a loser.
😆 Mate you definitely win first prize for most downvotes… Nothing wrong with this comment either (obviously bindippers in the house).
And Frank! Klopp wants a row with everyone.
And coming up is the master at defensive structure Jose!!
Its clear Klopp has been found out. Tactically without tall defenders to attack crosses – all teams can counterattack from a low block defensive structure. The Liverpool players have really had enough of full on pressing. When Liverpool take their foot off the pedal to get a breather then the opposition gets the opportunity to attack the weakened defense which have been very prone to mistakes.
Klopp is having a go at all the recent coaches playing totally defensive – had a go at Ole also.
Act being the operative word.
Welcome to Premier theatre.
Ahhh Liverpool dropping more points…..Standard.
They had to shut the bookies this season didn’t they? Clowns.
His mask of endless grinning has certainly slipped this season. Now we are seeing his whole character, not just what he wanted to project…
The truth of the matter is that they’re all poor losers and sore losers in their own way. Understandable but there comes a point where they need to remember that they’re getting paid getting on getting on for 20m a year. Show some more class now and again…
Ginger Mourinho
Very underrated is Dyche, proper manager.
Who remembers when some people thought poch was a better coach than him
Can you imagine the reactions if another manager had done that in front of Klopp? Let’s say Jose celebrates wildly in front of Jurgen after seeing Spurs smash in their 4th next Thursday… Klopp would have lost it completely, and the media had probably been on his side.
Hasn’t this got the look of his last 18 months or so at Dortmund? Imploded completely. Went from being double winners and Champions League finalists to mid table scrapping. Little cracks at first. More and more animated at the touch-line. His snappy comments at press conferences started to sound bitter. But the press and media still seemed to love him though.
Klopp’s a dickhead and gets away with murder. It’s true if Jose acted in the same manner he’s spend most of the season in the stands. It must be so sweet for other managers getting one over on him with his sideline antics. I washed my hand of him when he bounced up and down in front of gentleman Chris Hughton as Liverpool’s 4th goal went in against Brighton at Anfield.
If I was Dyche…I may come out to clarify after the “I didnt start it” comment. Klopp starts a lot without starting anything. He is that guy that makes a crass joke about someones mum/wife/kids and then when he gets confronted or lamped “I didnt start it…” You know full well Klopp has done something in front Dyche, I am not sure of all the PL managers, Dyche would be the one I picked a fight with.
I think the PL need to look at why Klopp manages to speak to the referee and leave the technical area so often.
Well said. Behaves like a spoiled child and it’s embarrassing to see.
How is Mourinho considered the sore loser rather than Klopp or Pep, I’ll never know.
He’s become a parody act
His jumping up and down, waving his arms about and his over the top grinning has irritated me from the moment he arrived.
He’s a competitor and a top manager but he needs to wind it in, needs to accept that he can’t have it his own way all the time. He’s been backed to the hilt and indulged by everyone at Liverpool, he needs to display a little more humility.
Like a lot of managers, he’s always sweetness and light when their team wins…
