Jurgen Klopp was not allowed on the sidelines during our draw with Aston Villa due to his current suspension but he still ensured that he had a chat with them on the pitch, before the game began.
The 55-year-old was clearly only not permitted to be in our dugout for the duration of the game and so he ensured that his usual pre-match routine of being on the grass with the players was completed.
It’s impossible to know from this video what was said but seeing as we conceded a penalty and had VAR checks that all found no red card on Tyrone Mings, no penalty for Jordan Henderson and Cody Gakpo’s goal ruled out – it didn’t seem to make much positive difference.
Whether there is a real vendetta between the German and those in charge of officiating our matches, will be very hard to prove but it’s safe to say it’s far from a healthy relationship at the moment.
