 | Klopp on injuries ahead of the World Cup: I hate this topic. Starting a tournament a week after the last game is crazy. Nobody cares about us30-06-2024 |
Jurgen Klopp again expressed dissatisfaction with the density of the calendar.
– I hate this topic! These problems were so obvious, but no one ever said anything about it until the World Cup was three or four weeks away. And now players suddenly get injured, and you say: He won’t be able to play at the World Cup, wow!
The situation of football players getting injured at the end of the season and missing the World Cup is not new. After a long season, this happens everywhere in the world. But starting the World Cup a week after the last game is an even bigger risk. Madness.
Nobody cares about us or how we deal with all this. You are asking me a question. What do you think I should do? Should I ask the players before Southampton or Derby: Do you really want to play?
We are all to blame - and you more than I am - for allowing this to happen. And now this is already happening. And that’s it, we have to put up with this, and the players who get injured and cannot play. This is a catastrophe. But how can we change this? - said the Liverpool coach.
