No, Klopp knew exactly what he was saying. A tournament that will make him loose 2 of his best players is not what you forget. It's out of anger he called AFCON little.

The least you can do is to READ and understand the news before commenting. That's the least you could have done.

You should be ashamed to make such statements...

Was Rome built in a day?!!! Was the European competition always like it is today?!!

We should never allow foreigners belittle our people, nation or continent... It is even more stupid to join them in doing so.

Klopp called AFCON little. He got angry when a reporter asked him to apologize. Read the post again you might understand it better.

You choose your words carefully as an important person of influence... That's the way it is.

It's a reporter's job to fish for goofs! Have you forgotten how FFK fell headlong into that reporter's trap?!!

Ed Cavani made an honest and harmless remark, and was made to burn for it.

Na people like you sell black man to white men. I don't blame you. You were born like this and for this.


Black man like you will enjoy whiteman privildge and still think he made that happen.
The last CAF champions league final, VAR was use in the 1st leg and in the 2nd leg when a goal was rule out and the team thought they were cheated protest for VAR intervention but that was the time the ref let it known to the players that VAR was not working.
What a way to sell out abi.
You will leave this continent with a slight opportunity but still bash another for belittling it.

Is AFCON not a little tournament? Boring matches with under 2 goals and poor video coverage.

What it really is doesn't matter...

It's deeply insulting for a person of Klopp's status to make such statements about a continent's football tournament...

A continent that gifted him exceptional and indispensable players in 3 very key positions!

When you are important, you choose your words very carefully!

Buhari is an underperforming and clueless head of state, but will Biden, Macron, Queen Elizabeth, etc, make such an "honest" statement in public without damning consequences?!!

Klopp may not have meant his word but sometimes the truth doesn't come plainly.
Messi won COPA AMERICA and he is favourite for FIFA best award.
Aboutrika did win AFCON 3times and never went close.
Untill winning afcon carry same weight as EURO'S (UCL,UEL), COPA (CL,CS), etc in fifa award, then CAF will just be a little tournament

ifytrik:
can also make such statement if it was the European championship he was talking about?

Relax. He is not a native English speaker. Such people sometimes have hard time finding the right words to express what they’re trying to say when speaking English, and that translates to them sounding extremely blunt and rude sometimes even when they dint mean to be.

He merely tried to point out the the Afcon is not really a high profiled tournament around the world like what he is used to. No insult intended.

The above are well known facts sir... Can Klopp make such statements in public?!!

That something is true, doesn't make it right or normal to spew them out in press conferences.

Leaving the continent does not mean I don't love the continent. I don't despise the continent. I don't belittle the continent.

I leave the continent because of human beings like you who have no sense of self worth. Your set are the weakest link in every society.

People should stop complaining about slavery because black men like you sold black men to white men as slaves.

Klopp said trash.

And of course, nonsensical africans on this thread will still Support his nonsense talk. See him trying to shift goalpost with extra arrogance.


This is totally wrong and he should apologise.

Europeans and seeing non-european tourneys as worth anything is full fledged arrogance.

Nonsense!

A Continent's top tourney is called "little" like some domestic division one cup contest and y'all are laughing and saying he's saying the truth? Smh

WTF man, you got no sense at all. People like you run away with lame excuse. You can't admit the truth, in fact you don't want the truth to be said while it keep on appearing again.
A team once wrote to fifa about ref and got the game replay.
You could say let hide it but fast forward,
SAF have done it again. and you won't want us to talk about it abi?
Nigerians team keep prostesting at int'l competition and you want us to accept it like that abi.
What an african continent you want.... BRAVO.
