Klopp Admits Liverpool Defense Made Him Nearly "Vomit"

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp acknowledges his side's defense tactic against Bournemouth almost made him puke - seems he's likely going to have that feeling before the season comes to an end.  

Liverpool tried closing the game at 2:1 - having regain from lacking behind to a goal for Benik Afobe in only the seventh minute, they were doomed in the 87th minute whey were unable to clear a long throw and Josh King equalised. 

With Stoke, West Brom, Crystal Palace and Watford their next four matches, Klopp and his players can expect to have their strength and skills tested.

“We could close the game in one moment, we didn’t, we left it open,” said Klopp, who later switched to a back three after being forced to take off Philippe Coutinho after he was ill at half-time.

“Then a second ball after a set-piece and that made me nearly vomit, actually.

“That’s not nice but we have to take it. It’s my responsibility, all of this.

“I have to be clearer in these situations, obviously, but I will find a solution for this.

“It should be disappointing – that’s really important – but we have to take it like it is, one point more than before.

“It’s not what we wanted but could have been worse, actually.

“We all know we lost games like this already in the season and (last night) we didn’t.

“Maybe we can take this as a positive and then drive to Stoke and try to do better.”
