Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has admitted he ‘nearly clapped’ Leicester striker Jamie Vardy after his second goal against Liverpool last night. Foxes defeated Liverpool 2-0 last night placing themselves 5 points clear at the top of the table. Liverpool trail 11 points behind fourth place Arsenal.
Klopp stated after the game: "Things like this happen when you are in such a good moment like Jamie Vardy and Leicester are," Klopp said. "Obviously you need a little bit of luck but it was really good. First of all you need to be brave enough to do it.”
"It's the perfect season for Leicester and the perfect season for Jamie Vardy. They deserve every point they get and Jamie has deserved every goal he's scored until now. I was close to clapping my hands to be honest but I just felt too bad at that moment."
Liverpool have failed to score in five consecutive games, winning just once in the League in January. With Europa league games resuming this month, an FA Cup replay and Capital One Cup final against Manchester City at the end of the month,Klopp has admitted he is looking for more in his team in the coming weeks.
