Popular Post Guesty Posted 2 May 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 2 May 2023 Think he might get made an example of here. You can't be saying he was unprofessional and he said unacceptable things to me unless you're sure. And if he's going down that route, then really he should say what was said. He knows the ref isn't allowed to reply. Now he already seems to be backtracking. Whilst he might not be a great ref; if you're going to try to basically ruin his career you better be sure. It's one thing saying he's s**t, but quite an other to question his integrity and professionalism. Plus, it's not the first time he's acted the fool in the technical area. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klopp said in his press conference today what he apparently said The whole situation shouldn’t have happened at all, that’s how it is," admitted the German on Tuesday afternoon. "It was out of emotion and anger in that moment, which is never a good leader for the things you do. That’s why I celebrated the way I celebrated. There was a situation with a foul on Mo, no foul, and the foul that was whistled was directly in front of my eyes so I saw it was no foul, but he whistled it anyway for a free-kick and then the goal. A minute later, we scored. That's a moment where I should just be happy that we could score a goal but, unfortunately, I was still kind of angry and that led to the way I celebrated. “I didn’t say anything wrong. I was shouting ‘Without you’, without you’. It doesn’t even make a lot of sense, but that was all. I couldn’t really get close to the fourth official and I didn’t want to get close to him, not at all. I then felt my muscle and Paul Tierney came over to me and I didn't expect a red card. I know I had a red card not too long ago and I didn’t expect for a second a red card because I didn’t feel it was right. I expected a yellow card in that moment and he said to me ‘For me, it’s a red card but because of him [fourth official] it’s yellow’. He showed me a yellow card and smiled at my face, that’s it. Red card for what? We then go inside, I tried to calm down and it didn’t work out properly. I go into all the interviews and then I said what I said. "I said what he said to me was not OK and I actually thought it is not OK because it was not a red card in my view and then the things happen. I understand I opened the box with that, not intentionally- but I opened it. Your colleague [Sky] stepped into it and wanted me to carry on and said all these words like ‘Was it appropriate?’ and I stopped it here. Maybe I should have said in that moment ‘He said to me it was a red card and I didn’t think it was a red card’. But from that moment on, I realised I opened a box I didn’t want to open. “The rest of the things I said about how I felt in that moment about Paul Tierney whistling our games, I’m very sure he is not doing it intentionally but we have history and I cannot deny that. I am not a resentful person, not at all, I think it is a waste of time. But these things that happened in the past, in decisive games for us, that happened. Of course it didn’t happen intentionally, but they are still there. That’s a feeling, nothing else. The refs were really angry about what I said and I heard I was lying and stuff like this. I did a lot of things that day, but I didn’t lie. I shouldn’t have said a couple of things, but lying was not involved in that.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaspa Posted 2 May 2023 Share Posted 2 May 2023 Nothing new. Staggered me a couple of years ago back during COVID season where they were losing at home to Burnley and the like every other week - one time he called a ref over to him at a break in play and started lecturing the ref like he was completely in charge and giving orders. The whole statement above is nonsense "I was acting out of emotion", no, you showed zero respect. To me he seems to think that he's above the referees. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh Guardiola usually goes as strong as possible for all games because he wants to win. I just want Arsenal to win so that the top and bottom are interesting going into the final games.
