Klopp: ‘How we didn’t beat Arsenal, I don’t know’

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says he still could not believe his side did not take all the three points in Sunday’s Premier League against Arsenal at Anfield.

The Gunners, hoping to reclaim their eight point lead at the top of the Premier League log scored two first half goals but needed goalkeeper Arom Ramsdale to thank for leaving Anfield with a point.

‘A bit typical for us this season. An open game, completely open, they score with the first situation and the second one. Our reaction was good. It was a spectacular game in the end. How we didn’t win it with those late chances I don’t know.’ Klopp told Skysports after the game.

‘I’m caught in between [being happy and not]. I have no problems with drawing. Arsenal were good but they could and should have lost this game. The point for them is better.

‘We had moments and chances where we didn’t finish the situations off. Slightly typical. They’re flying so they score with their first chance. The goal we scored helped massively. At half-time it wasn’t over. It was a sensational atmosphere. Good moment to get the equaliser.

‘All of a sudden we were in charge of a wild game. We deserved at least a point. If Ibou [Konate] uses his head [for a late chance] it’s a goal. Maybe he slipped. He had a chance, it was just there.’

On his thoughts on the Andy Robertson clash with the assistant referee at half-time: “Nothing. I know it happened but I didn’t watch it. If it happened the pictures will speak for themselves.”
