Juergen Klopp, the head coach of Liverpool, discussed the punishment meted out to him as a result of what he said to the referee after being sent out during a victory over Manchester City in the English Premier League.
The German, who was incensed when Mohamed Salah was denied a free kick despite Bernardo Silva clearly making a mistake, was fined 30,000 pounds for breaking FA rules.
In addition to disclosing what he said to the official, Klopp informed reporters that he is not the best person to assess the appropriateness of his sentence.
So, I said: “How can you not? I know what I said, and I know that speaking this from a distance and with a different face will be just OK. How on earth can you ignore that?
Should I be put on hold? I’m not sure; I’ve never been in this predicament; I’ve never been given a red card or a yellow card; I’m not sure exactly; I didn’t do what the other coaches who received red cards and received punishment did; I made the error you should inquire about.
”
“I don’t know about the normal things,” he continued. In the Champions League, everything is a little different now than it was when I was punished a few years ago for a very similar offence.
I’m not comfortable, I’m not happy, and I was expecting punishment.
Klopp discloses the conversation he had with the referee before to being sent off against City because of Salah and Silva’s ball.
