lol....most likely during the period Africans will watch the European leagues more than the AFCON tournament.

Pathokpo:

If it were the uefa tournament, would he have described it in the same way. He may not have meant to disrespect the afcon tournament but, human inate perception goes a long way in determining his choice of words in social interaction. That is why when interacting with people try to pay close attention to their choice of words and not just what they are trying to communicate, so you could have a better understanding of them.

yes! it called sarcasm!!!

I feel so ashamed reading the comments of people here and excusing Klopp. AFCON was called a little tournament and you are happy about it. Shame.

Leave my coach alone!

robosky02:
Kloop will miss his men

we have a midfield player to miss as well

robosky02:




See the AFCON should NEVER be disrespected


Kloop didn't see it like Africa's world cup


He see it as something his key players will just go and return.



No no no ....it must be seen as it is.... African world cup..

African world cup���. Africa na world again on its own?

KingEverest:
all these journalist and reporters eh they understood wat he meant o they just wanted to implicate him

Oga, he didn't deny calling AFCON "little tournament" and he didn't have words to defend himself than saying gibberish. Nobody tried implicating him.

When I tell people say na black man sell black man to white men, they go talk say I dey talk anyhow.

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

Are you minding them. A whole continent was insulted and yet they still find a way of cheering their oppressors.

KingEverest:
all these journalist and reporters eh they understood wat he meant o they just wanted to implicate him

He was claiming he is not a native speaker but when he was addressing the issue he said afcon is stil a big game, so why didn't he use big in the first place


We've to take all these dictions serious
They won't call Euros or copa America small but when it's Africa the have problem with their choice of words klopp still dey hide behind non native BS...
Naso Dem go put Chelsea's Mendy face for real Madrid's F. mendy's article, FIFA even used a crazy picture to represent him in the list of nomitated keepers and so on and so on
Not to even talk of pes and FIFA


But this is africa we tend to bend towards the whites because of some of us dey suffer from inferiority complex.

Afcon is ours let's support even though e no worth am

Clop, Diego simeoni and Costa would have been mad men roaming the street if not that they where fortunate to be born in a developed country that has the best psychiatric hospitals, despite visiting psychiatric hospitals from time to time, they still behave and talk like mad people sometimes.

their development is man made not by praying to transformer not to burn,abi na dem say make gas and food stuffs cost?

If na Mourinho talk this kind things naaa, the football world would have crack on him that he's too proud, what about this sh*t now

Mr Klopp e be like say You Want To Walk Alone YWTWA.

Klopp, like Harry Redknapp, who described AFCON as a "Mickey Mouse" competition, when he was the manager at Portsmouth, is a RACIST, QED!

Would the idiot have called Euro championship " a little tournament in Europe in May" ?

I like his work as a coach and as a passionate human being, but this interview showed his racist inner recess...

Please apologize for this statement.

We can't play like the white, we will have to do it our African way.

Please respect Africa

You can say that again

Godbless3:


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.

It's people like you that join ISIS, ISIL, etc. You don't get it yet?

why the fûck would I leave Africa if not for people like you who despise it? A very beautiful continent.

Your momma didn't brings you up properly.

C'mon the reporter was just doing his job, but for klopp he really meant what he said belittling Africa's most treasured tournament. He should apologize which he didn't apparently. Afcon is one of the biggest tournament in the world closely following copa America and Euro nations league, it's also worth a hefty sum of Dollars, hence it's very wrong for him to belittle our tournament.

Your problem plenty sha, home training you no get, grammar you fit speak above all you no get respect for ya mama n papa broz go for cele deliverance shaperly

Topmaike007:
shioor na people like you dey shame to introduce there mama to there babe because they feel inferior...shior

Don't beat yourself up over it, Klopp. IT IS A LITTLE TOURNAMENT. Lots of us Africans don't even bother to watch it unless we're really bored.
I really resent the way these white folks treats other races like they are weak, oversensitive, and can't stand up for themselves. We Africans are strong and thick-skinned and it's going to a whole lot more than that to offend us. Save the pity party for someone who cares.

Impregnable101:
Lol I believe what jurgen wanted to say was "brief tournament"

That's exactly what he meant. But you know we Black men and inability to comprehend

Add Balotelli and David Luis

Alll this left thinking journalist. Always guilting men to submission.


That guy never meant it the way they context it. And if truth be told by the way that competition sucks.

It's like trump saying Africa is shithole..yes it's impolite but it's not like we the people have not said worst about our own country. It's something we all agree on.

nation's cup sef, I hardly watch..if South Africa or tunisa or egypty, Algeria are not hosting, sorry am not watching. You watch a tournament weh the whole pitch be like we're cow just finish grazing. Apart from my country game I can't watch Uganda play bokinafaso. My eye go rush water. Sorry.

how long will you keep building your Rome
Come to terms with the truth, africa keep building the Rome but same africans keep bringing it down with corruption and unprofessionalism

Angelfrost:


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.

C'mon, it is interesting to watch when other countries play together that comprises of its star players, hence it's a tough tournament.

But is Afcon not a little tournament??

I give up on you

AFCON still remains a local tournament. Klopp should have even called it an amateur tournament. I rest my case o.

There all see Africa as a zoo continent and Nigeria as capital of the zoo.

And south africa?
