Liverpool face a fortnight’s break and they will be looking to refocus ahead of a hectic end to the season.
The Reds are still firmly in the race for the Premier League title come the end of the campaign having already bagged the Carabao Cup. They are also still in the Europa League after thumping Czech side Sparta Prague.
Unfortunately for the Reds, they won’t be lifting four trophies in May. Jurgen Klopp's side were ousted from the FA Cup by fierce rivals Manchester United.
The German will be aiming to get his side back on track after the current international break. With that being said, take a look at all of the headlines to come out of Anfield over the past 24 hours.
Klopp 'screamed' during furious showdown
Liverpool boss Klopp screamed and yelled at a reporter after storming out of a TV interview at Old Trafford. A clip of the German has gone viral in which he claimed that the reporter was "not in a great shape".
The interviewer, Danish broadcaster Niels Christian Frederiksen, has now revealed how long the tense exchange was going on. Speaking to Tipsbladet, he said: "I was very surprised by it, and those standing around were scared, and they were almost pressed up against the wall like: 'wow, what the hell just happened here?'
"It continued after what was seen on TV. He continued down the hallway, where he yelled and screamed at me. I also followed him because I thought it was something strange."
Elliott gives verdict on FA Cup exit
While Klopp was visibly frustrated at Liverpool’s elimination at Old Trafford, goalscorer Harvey Elliott was in a slightly more optimistic mood. The midfielder believes that the Reds’ exit could potentially be a blessing in disguise as they continue their fight for three trophies.
He said: “Now we can focus on other things, it frees up a few weeks for us. Not as many games any more so the lads can be fresh and we can recover properly and focus on the rest of the season.”
“Our confidence is always there, it isn't going to affect us at all,” the Liverpool star added. “We're going to be annoyed that we didn't win but we're going away with internationals now, so we can forget about it and come back after the break fresh again ready to crack down and fight for the rest of the season.”
