The interviewer asked Klopp about his team's loss of intensity. The former Borussia Dortmund">Borussia Dortmund man replied seriously: "It's quite a stupid question, If you see us often, you can ask us the other times why we have so much energy. I don't know how many games we've had recently and how many Manchester United have had. This is sport. I am very disappointed by that question, but you thought it was wise".
But far from steering the conversation elsewhere, the reporter pressed the issue again. The German coach exploded and said as he left the mixed zone: "Come on! You are obviously not in a great shape. I don't have the nerve for this.
It is not the first time that Jurgen Klopp has been involved in such an incident. On 6th December 2023, after the match between the Reds and Sheffield United, the German already had a confrontation with a journalist from 'Amazon TV.' In this case, what he didn't like was that the journalist joked about the short rest time his team had to face the next Premier League match.
