Klopp Absolutely Savages the Neville Brothers & Claims the Twitter Loving Duo Don't Have a Clue

Published on: 11 December 2016

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has launched a stinging tirade in the direction of both Gary and Phil Neville, defending under-fire keeper Loris Karius while also criticising Gary's failed Valencia stint.


Things haven't gone so smoothly for Klopp and Liverpool these last few weeks, and they now sit in third place, six points adrift of leaders Chelsea.

Karius has been the one taking most of the blame, as his questionable performances between the sticks continue to gather criticism, but it appears that Jurgen's had enough, and speaking in a press conference, as quoted by theEcho, the German ripped into the Nevilles.


"It's a normal situation, criticism from outside," said the manager. "It's normal for me, normal for my players, normal for the goalkeepers, we all wish it would be different but it is not like this.


"I'm not surprised about it. In my very first press confidence I spoke a little bit about English media.


"Obviously you all enjoy it a little bit being this harsh - most of you, sorry!"

"The pundits are the former players a lot of them and forgot obviously completely how it felt when they got criticised.


"Especially the Neville brothers who I have to say really, the one who was the manager (Gary) he obviously should know that too much criticism never helps - but he's not interested in helping a Liverpool player I can imagine.

"But that makes the things he says not more sense. He showed that he struggled with the job to judge players. Why do we let them talk about players on television? I wouldn't but the only thing I can do is I don't listen to them.


"I'm pretty sure Carra doesn't speak too positively about Man United players. So obviously the Neville brothers don't like Liverpool but I've no problem. If they could cause bigger problems than they already have I think they try it.


"Now you have your headline! Welcome! You should have asked the right question earlier. By the way, you can tell him I'm not on Twitter, so if he wants to tell me something, Twitter doesn't help."

It's safe to say that the Neville brothers just had their pants well and truly pulled down.
