Budapest (dpa) - World coach Jürgen Klopp reacted with clear words to the crisis talk about the English soccer champions FC Liverpool and his person.

"We are all completely convinced that we have the right team on the one hand and the right coach on the other," said Klopp after the 2-0 (0-0) on Tuesday in the first leg of the first leg against RB Leipzig in Budapest Channel Sky.

The coach clearly rejected the fact that there are first cracks in the Liverpool structure.

“That was really funny last week out of nowhere: I'm not supposed to have flown home with the team and all that kind of thing.

This is all nonsense.

There aren't even any tendencies for that, "emphasized Klopp and added:" My coaching career has gone like this: I break into the problems myself and have to dig them out myself.

Nobody pays me a severance payment and says: 'Go home and let others do it'.

I always have to do it myself.

And that's how it is this time too.

And that's how it is done. "

Klopp has slipped to sixth place with Liverpool in the Premier League.

There have only been two wins in the last ten league games.

After the Leicester bankruptcy, there were rumors in Liverpool that he was considering resigning or taking a break.

“I've had better times, for sure,” said Klopp, not only referring to football: “I don't think it's sporty that bad, I think it's socially bad and privately it wasn't good either.

The sport is to be regulated.

Football problems are resolved with football. "

The former trainer from Mainz and Dortmund recently also had to cope with the death of his mother.
