'Do me a favour' - Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp hits back at Dietmar Hamann comments ahead of Rangers clash

Jurgen Klopp has hit back at former Liverpool midfielder Dietmar Hamann after he suggested Klopp’s time at the club might be nearing an end. Liverpool have had a poor start to the season, winning just two games from eight in the Premier League and sitting 14 points behind leaders Arsenal. Ad Hamann, who made 283 appearances for Liverpool, said after the 3-2 loss to the Gunners on Sunday that the run of results could lead to talk about Klopp’s future as manager.

Hamann also suggested Liverpool need to find a “spark”, which was put to Klopp before the midweek Champions League clash against Rangers. “Who said that? Didi Hamann?” responded the Liverpool manager.

“Oh great. A fantastic source, well respected everywhere. Where would Mbappe go next after PSG? PSG fans bemused by Mbappe's decision Klopp added: “That (being a former Liverpool player) does not give you the right to say what you want, especially when you have no idea.

“I actually think Didi Hamann does not deserve that you use his phrase to ask a question. Do me a favour and ask your own question. Try to ask without using the word spark.” Klopp’s mood after the defeat to Arsenal has been worsened by the news that Luis Diaz is out for eight weeks with injury and Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joel Matip are both set to miss two weeks.

However, Klopp suggested things are not as bad as they appear and is keen for his side to respond to their recent run of results. “If you sleep on a problem, sometimes you realise life goes on. I just stood there at Arsenal and we had lost the game.
