Jurgen Klopp's damning admission on Rodri red card claim sums up Liverpool

Jurgen Klopp claimed Liverpool wouldn’t have beaten Manchester City even if their opponents were reduced to ten men on Saturday.

Despite taking the lead at the Etihad Stadium through Mohamed Salah, the Reds slumped to a 4-1 mauling. Goals from Julian Alvarez, Kevin De Bruyne, Ilkay Gundogan and Jack Grealish guided the reigning Premier League champions to a thoroughly deserved win.

Despite that, there was some controversy as Rodri was somewhat fortunate to avoid picking up two quickfire bookings and simultaneously steered away from a dismissal. Liverpool boss Klopp was asked about the decision to allow the midfielder to continue in his post-match press conference.
