Jurgen Klopp shared a frosty exchange with Manchester United legend Roy Keane after Liverpool maintained their perfect start to the season with a 3-1 victory over Arsenal.
Following the Anfield clash, Keane hailed Liverpool’s performances and described the defending Premier League champions as a ‘winning machine’.
However, the former Manchester United captain suggested there was still room for improvement from Liverpool, who he said were somewhat ‘sloppy’ defensively.
Responding to Keane’s comments, Liverpool boss Klopp told Sky Sports: ‘Did I hear right Mr Keane said we had a sloppy performance, did he say that?
‘Did he say that is was sloppy? I want to hear it, that is an incredible description of this game.
‘Nothing, absolutely nothing was sloppy. dominant against a team in form and be careful as hell that we did not get caught on the counter-attack.
‘Alisson had to make one save, they had two chances in behind but apart from that the football we played was exceptional tonight.
‘This game tonight there is nothing bad to say, it was the opposite of sloppy.’
