Klopp said his players failed to respond to the early mistake from Bogdan, which set the tone for a chastening afternoon: ‘We lost our minds after the first goal, we lost our compact formation, we didn’t play easy when we should have, ‘ said the German.
Jurgen Klopp says there’s no disputing the validity of the first goal, and Liverpool must accept defeat. “In terms of positions where we need to buy, you could go right through the spine of the team – centre-half, centre-midfield, striker”.
Quique Sanchez Flores believes Watford are ready to fend off any January offers for star striker Odion Ighalo.
But Bogdan quickly disabused them of that idea with a horrendous third minute mistake that gifted Watford the lead.
The game continues with pace and push from both sides but Watford taking advantage of it, pulled a second 12 minutes later.
Jurgen Klopp accused his Liverpool flops of losing their minds in Sunday’s woeful 3-0 defeat against Watford.
However, Klopp was more concerned with Liverpool’s lacklustre response to that early setback.
The result leaves the Swans in the relegation zone after winning only one of their last 13 Premier League games, while West Ham recorded their fifth draw in their last six.
“I had both hands on the ball but we are talking about a split-second”.
Over the course of the 90 minutes at Vicarage Road, hosts Watford had just 35% of the possession, took six shots of which five were on target, and earned seven corners. “That’s the situation – they scored the goal, we didn’t score the goal”. “If there is space to execute it, sometimes I get lucky and sometimes it doesn’t work, but it’s become a part of my game”. We came here to do something really different than what you saw.
“But we kept working and kept creating attempts on goal”.
“I think he’ll finish the season with Watford, after that anybody knows”.
“We didn’t do it and then a counter-attack decided the game”.
We were clearly the better side but like so many times before were not able to make use of our chances.
Odion Ighalo has warned the Premier League’s big guns they will have to show Watford more respect – because they are not just on a brief stopover in the top flight.
