Should Jurgen Klopp’s Brewdog-style behaviour see him sent to the stands?

Jurgen Klopp dominates the Mailbox after his performance at the weekend, though his outfit might be the biggest problem.

Klopp should be banned for rest of the season
A quick reminder that Jurgen Klopp was accusing Paul Tierney of bias against Liverpool during a game where a Liverpool player escaped a red card for going in studs-up into an opponent’s actual face… Presumably he was furious that the Spurs player didn’t get sent off for headbutting the underside of Jota’s foot…

Klopp’s behaviour is pretty appalling. Not for the first time he’s gone after Tierney personally, accusing him of personal bias with a level of anger Klopp usually reserves for barmen that skim the head off his pint… He’s trying to effectively create an environment where Tierney cannot be appointed as the match official for future Liverpool games or, at the very least, for the threat of future reprisal from Liverpool’s keyboard warriors if he doesn’t give Klopp the decisions he wants.

Now, all managers get involved in trying to influence referees (Ten Hag talking about Newcastle’s style of play before the cup final springs to mind) but to explicitly and repeatedly slander an individual referee crosses a line – if the tactic succeeds it could ruin Tierney’s career.

Then to compound it by, seemingly, falsely accusing the ref of saying something inappropriate (hilariously forgetting that the ref is recorded)… classy stuff. Incidentally, if it is true that all Tierney said was that Klopp’s yellow should, in Tierney’s opinion, have been a red then (i) how is that inappropriate, given it is literally Tierney’s job to be the arbiter of how such conduct is sanctioned? and (ii) that he only gave a yellow is just evidence of Klopp’s illegal campaign to influence the ref’s decisions is working…

In my view, Klopp shouldn’t be seen on a touchline again this side of the closed season.

Klopp’s biggest crime
After Liverpool wore their ‘psychedelic’ away shirt the other week a few comments along the lines of “bring back New Balance” were made. It then struck me why Liverpool’s season has been such a clusterf*ck, with Klopp kicking off on numerous occasions (most notably this weekend). It’s Klopp’s outfit. The fella is wearing Nike apparel with Adidas shoes which was never going to end well. And at a club whose fans helped pioneer the whole casuals…
