Jurgen Klopp has taken a parting shot at TNT Sports by declaring that he will never watch the channel again in the future and told them to remove him from their list of subscribers.

The Liverpool manager joked that Amnesty International should get involved because he believes scheduling their games at 12.30pm on a Saturday is a crime and claimed his side have had the fastest turnaround of matches in the global game.

Klopp was long a critic of BT Sport – TNT’s predecessor – for regularly scheduling Liverpool in Saturday’s early kick-off slot and highlighted their recent run of fixtures, from a Thursday away game in Atalanta to a Sunday match at Fulham, a Wednesday night Merseyside derby and the first game on Saturday, when they drew 2-2 at West Ham to in effect end their title challenge.

Klopp believes the schedule is crazy and blamed the broadcasters – though he laughingly offered to be a pundit on TNT in the future as he said: “I watch a lot of football all over the world, the Premier League is the best league in the world.

You can talk about that until everybody realises finally, but somebody needs to help the people.

“I had a discussion only the other day with colleagues from our favourite TV channel which I will definitely not watch again, TNT, and said it’s always a conversation they have, saying they pay you, they give money to football.

I will watch a lot of football, but not all because people can survive without match days from time to time, definitely.”

There are no English semi-finalists in the Champions League or the Europa League which Klopp believes is due to the fixture list.

He added: “[Manchester] City and Arsenal, they are out in the quarter-finals, this is just not a reflection of quality.

You always think when I speak about it, it’s because of our last situation.

“We didn’t lose against West Ham.

While Klopp will not be involved in the decision, he said: “Mo as a player is incredible and I don’t think I should speak about that.

Other people will decide that, especially Mo, I don’t have any signs it will not be like that.
