The two teams have inspired each other to greater heights on the field in recent years with City edging a thrillingHowever, this time around Liverpool find themselves cut adrift — 13 points behind City with a game in hand ahead of Sunday’s showdown at Anfield. Pep Guardiola’s side have gone to the next level since the summer signing of Erling Haaland.
Asked what Liverpool need to do to keep pace with City, Klopp said: “Oh, you will not like the answer, and you all have the answer already. Nobody can compete with City in that. “You have the best team in the world and you put in the best striker on the market, no matter what it costs, you just do it. I know City will not like it, nobody will like it, you’ve asked the question, but you know the answer. What does Liverpool do? We cannot act like them. It is not possible.”
While City are bankrolled by the riches of Abu Dhabi, Liverpool owners Fenway Sports Group run the club on a self-sustaining business model. Klopp also pointed to the huge financial resources enjoyed by Qatar-owned Paris Saint-Germain and Saudi Arabia-backed“It’s legal and everything, fine. But they can do what they want.
JamesPearceLFC All of the major media footballing correspondents have been somewhat complicit in a lack of discussion around the state ownership of teams. They would much rather talk up the football rivalry than highlight the huge underlying issues at play here.
JamesPearceLFC Yet more excuses.
JamesPearceLFC He should be focusing on why Liverpool are not above Brighton, Brentford, Fulham and Bournemouth before he pulls that card surely?
JamesPearceLFC KieranMaguire … he does have a point…
JamesPearceLFC Oh man, in our term 'Ojo dibanding, bandingke', it is premier league. The league more liberal in ownership, city is another level of football club with franchised football club which are exist in another continent.
JamesPearceLFC Nunez only cost 75 million , embarrassing comments
JamesPearceLFC Client journalism at its finest Liverpool have spent a fortune in the last 5 years but you allow Klopp to pretend they're paupers with no challenge
JamesPearceLFC Tuchel said it best
JamesPearceLFC Lol. Mentality Monsters given up.
JamesPearceLFC 🤣🤣🤣🤣
JamesPearceLFC Man City have more £40m+ signings (19) than LIV, TOT, ARS (18) combined..
JamesPearceLFC
JamesPearceLFC So what was the excuse for Liverpool in 2016 then?
JamesPearceLFC Klopp crying again? I can’t stand the bloke. It’s never his or the players fault for a poor run, it’s a bad pitch, the way the other team play, how much other clubs are spending etc etc
JamesPearceLFC A sour bitter man. Arsenal are better than than you fool, you signed a flopp for €100m. Own up to your failures 👍
JamesPearceLFC But they do. £80mn GK, DEF, STK.£50mn MID. £1BNspend. Outspending 99% of all clubs on the planet. Wages to match. Pearce & his cronies at this glorified fanzine are simply spreading Cult propaganda.
JamesPearceLFC I know what you mean. Derby are really struggling to compete with them aswell.
JamesPearceLFC He may have a point but for a club like Liverpool to complain about unfairness makes me sick and falls on deaf ears I’m afraid. Walk a mile in the shoes of some of the other clubs outside the top 6/7
mjshrimper JamesPearceLFC Financial inequality distorts competitiveness. It would be great if all the clubs were given similar budgets each season.
JamesPearceLFC All Klopp does these days, is winge, winge and winge, give us a break Mr Klopp.
TheAthletic JamesPearceLFC Would be perfect if they swapped Salah for Mbappe so Klopp and Mbappe could bitch about everything together
JamesPearceLFC It's pretty fucking obvious at this stage how limitless the resources of UAE and Qatar are. Liverpool's achievement is to give the illusion of there being competition
JamesPearceLFC What are they smoking at Anfield? Klopp is a broken man.
Klopp’s quote on ceilings is spot on
TheAthletic JamesPearceLFC Put Mane in that Roster and see where they will be punk
TheAthletic JamesPearceLFC Dude your Ego drove Mane to Bayern Munich; what the hell are you talking about
JamesPearceLFC Deflection tactics. Go through the fees paid for players. They do act like them but just not as good. Keita and Oxlade Chamberlain cost 110m or so, don’t moan cos you bought some shite
JamesPearceLFC newcastle owner bought a wrong club. he better buy liverpool
JamesPearceLFC You're welcome. Scroll through the bad takes and anti-LFC nonsense.
JamesPearceLFC We don’t even compete with West Ham in the transfer market really. He’s right to call Citys spending out but our owners accepting deafest with another £9m summer NET spend is hardly competing let’s be honest
JamesPearceLFC European football isn't a sport until everyone is on level playing fields.
JamesPearceLFC Funny that Liverpool are a place above City in net spend over the last 5 years.
JamesPearceLFC We can. We just have tight owners
JamesPearceLFC WOW!! Man City fans are amazing so well read and knowledgeable
JamesPearceLFC That explains 10 points in October then
JamesPearceLFC Hmmm very true but you could do better, to be honest.
JamesPearceLFC He’s spot on and a reason why over 38 league games Man City and PSG will always finish on top. When Thiago gets injured we play James Milner, when Kevin De Bruyne gets injured Kalvin Philips comes in.
JamesPearceLFC Yes. John Henry and FSG are definitely crying poor. 🙄
JamesPearceLFC He won the PL, UEFA CL... what is his problem?
JamesPearceLFC Here for the comments
JamesPearceLFC Konate £36m, Diaz £43m, Nunez £70m. Yeah OK
JamesPearceLFC They paid less for Haaland compared to the Uruguayan Andy Carroll
JamesPearceLFC 😂 😂 😂 😂 I see what you are trying to do there
JamesPearceLFC Very nice of Benfica to let them have Darwin Nunez on a free this summer wasn’t it.
