Following Liverpool’s victory at Sheffield United, Jurgen Klopp found himself in a tense on-air confrontation with Amazon TV presenter Marcus Buckland. The clash occurred when Buckland made a light-hearted comment about Liverpool playing in the early Saturday lunchtime slot. Klopp, who has previously criticized the scheduling of his team’s matches, accused Buckland of being “ignorant” for making a joke about the timing.
During the exchange, Klopp expressed his displeasure, stating, “That is really great to make a joke about that. Really?” When Buckland insisted he meant no disrespect, Klopp responded, “You were already.”
Finished like a striker! 🤩

The heated moment took place after Liverpool secured a tough victory at Bramall Lane, silencing the home crowd through Virgil van Dijk’s goal and a late strike by Dominik Szoboszlai. The win came amid the devastating news of Joel Matip’s season-ending anterior-cruciate ligament rupture.
Despite Klopp’s confrontation, Liverpool continues to keep pace with Premier League title contenders, sitting just two points behind leaders Arsenal. Klopp acknowledged the challenges faced during the match but emphasized the importance of winning and recovering during this time of the year.
Virgil van Dijk’s captaincy was evident in his performance, contributing a goal and showcasing leadership on the field. The victory marked Liverpool’s third win in eight away games this season, positioning them well for a successful run in December.
All the time in the world.
