Klopp explains what he saw for 'first time' as problems catch up with Liverpool

Jurgen Klopp admits Liverpool’s gruelling schedule finally caught up with them as he bemoaned the lack of ruthlessness that cost them an FA Cup exit at Manchester United.

And the Reds boss believes too many of his players were running on empty during the extra period that should have been avoided by the visitors taking their chances during a one-sided second half. “But we didn’t finish the game off and when you leave the door open away from home at Old Trafford it’s clear they will get chances and they could score the equaliser and Marcus had a big chance at the end of normal time.

Mohamed Salah, who had scored Liverpool’s second, and Dominik Szoboszlai were replaced during the second half, but despite having tiring players Klopp admits the lack of senior options on the bench made it difficult to introduce fresh legs during a frantic extra period.
