Liverpool lost at home against Manchester United (1-2) this Sunday in the Premier League. A setback which has the effect of a hammer blow for the Reds, who have a fourth consecutive defeat. But that's not all, since the reigning English champions also said goodbye to a great series of invincibility against their historic rivals.
Indeed, the last time the Red Devils won at Anfield was on January 17, 2016, 9 years and 9 months ago. During his tenure, former Liverpool coach JĂĽrgen Klopp made the Reds' den a nightmare for the Mancunians. As proof, we take the memorable 7-0 correction inflicted on Erik ten Hag's men on March 5, 2023.
“I don’t want to die in there”
This poor result against United pushes Liverpool further into crisis. The most skeptical will undoubtedly soon call for the return of Klopp, in place of his successor Arne Slot. But the German technician, now director of world football at Red Bull, sticks to his positions and does not envisage any return to the sidelines.
“I said I would never come back to coach a team in England, which means, theoretically, if it was Liverpool it would be possible. But honestly, I don't know. I love what I do today. I don't have any nostalgia for training, nor sessions in the rain, nor press conferences three times a week. I managed about 1080 matches, I spent enough time in the locker room. I don't want to die in there, even if it smells good.”he confided in comments relayed by the German press.
