The criticism was great.

And it stops.

But not only because of the idea of ​​founding a Super League - the European football association Uefa is also targeted.

Jürgen Klopp thinks it is "absolutely great" that the introduction of the Super League has failed.

The coach of Liverpool FC also has clear words for the reform of the Champions League.

“Uefa didn't ask us, the inventors of the Super League didn't ask us.

Nobody asked us.

It just always means we should play more games.

We just have to deliver.

What is the reason?

Money! ”, Said Klopp, whose employer was one of the founding members of the Super League.

Protest by Arsenal fans

Massive fan protests from England, including on Friday evening at Arsenal FC, had caused the project to fail for the time being.

The Arsenal supporters demanded the resignation of owner Stan Kroenke in front of the Emirates Stadium.

According to Klopp, he is not naive and has no problems with changes.

“We all wanted to get rid of the Super League, but at the same time the new Champions League suddenly appeared.

And who read that concept and said, 'Oh, that's perfect'?

And who is telling me now that it's not about money?

That's a joke, ”said Klopp, complaining that the only ones who would never be asked are players, coaches and fans.

At the same time, like Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola, he complained about the even higher number of games.

“More games are impossible.

The structures are not designed for more games, "said the former coach of Borussia Dortmund and 1. FSV Mainz 05. Ex-Bayern coach Guardiola predicted more injuries:" Ufea knows, does it care?

Absolutely not, ”said the Spaniard.

Uefa passed the Champions League reform on Monday.

Now 36 instead of 32 teams are to take part, the total number of games increases from 125 to 225 - this brings the clubs and associations higher income from television broadcasts.
