"That was your fault" Mac Allister jokes with Klopp over "calmness" comments｜Liverpool｜Europa League

Courtesy ©UEFA 2024
'That was your fault!' said Alexis Mac Allister on Wednesday as he joked with Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp over 'calm head' comments.
In their late 1-0 victory with Nottingham Forest last Saturday, Mac Allister was the player who assisted goal scorer Darwin Nunez and was asked in the press conference how did he keep a calm head during the ball he played through.
The Argentinean turned to Klopp and said 'that's your fault!' as the manager had praised the calmness of the midfielder after the game which would have prompted the question.
Liverpool face Sparta Prague on Thursday evening in the first-leg of their last 16 tie in the Europe League.

Klopp is like a proud dad in this video 🥲

[@4231jerome]

hehe, you’re right. My ex used to call klopp the ‘soccer dad’ to all the Liverpool players . . And it’s true that they all look like boys when he hugs them 😅

[@roset3887]

What a humble guy, wish u all the best and success ❤

LFC have 5 national team captains: Van Dijk, Robertson, Salah, Endo, and Szoboszlai. But there are other players too who lead by example, including Mac Allister.

To be a leader amongst these exceptional leaders shows the character of him and the overall squad

[@hashshashiinme7656]

​@@waggna469and maybe gomez could be one to since he's one of the most consistent player this season

[@TheEricko234]

Also taa, Jones and Gomes were captains in the academy

[@hazrulizuan3558]

Konate was also the captain of the national team under 21😊

[@edglue6138]

You hated him 6 weeks ago? 😂😂😂

[@frankkkbard0n315]

I was afraid at first that maclister signing was just the "World cup hype", but the guy is solid. Really good signing

[@ThatGuy-vi6cj]

Yeah but Gakpo is

[@4231jerome]

@@ThatGuy-vi6cjgakpo doesn’t seem to be at full confidence . . I suspect he may be an absolute beast when he fully adapts to Liverpool’s playing style. Or perhaps the next manager will suit him more

[@marock0815]

Enzo Fernandez is the real Imposter 😂

[@nabell2032]

for 35 mil tho, thats a steal tbh

[@TraderSamsara]

The sign is only 50M. It is a bargain.

[@teshomeroba2141]

Klopp is z best manager ever ❤❤❤❤ from Arsenal fans

[@GerLeahy]

He's a humble, thoughtful guy. What I would have said was - Hey, do you know who I am. I've won a World Cup and you're asking me how I can be so calm under pressure. And that's why he's Alexis and I'm a world class footballer trapped inside a fat bloke's body

[@thefeckineejit264]

That’s the Irish side of him coming out ☘️

[@MuhammadIrfan-qi7ep]

Somehow this sounds like what Ronaldo would say in my head

[@user-ot5qf4pj2m]

Beautiful words. Nothing more dangerous than a SMART good football player!!

[@tomscott4438]

His play in the WC that lead to the first goal in the final was amazing. Pure athletic talent combined with a soccer brain. That he can play seamlessly and vitality in a link up with Messi and Di Maria is why he is on this squad. He plays at full speed, but he sees the game in slow motion. Keep this guy!!

[@4231jerome]

I always thought that with a name like ‘Macallister’ and a face like his, he must be from the UK. It sounded so very strange the first time I heard him speak English with a strong Latin accent 😂

[@leonardoavila2340]

Just an Argentinan guy

[@ashunknown9728]

Klopp😂😂😂😂

[@leofutbol8231]

Klopp the dikhed

[@seflinokasonde9150]

Well spoken, I like that.

[@susangrant6154]

ovsrmacca is futureliverpool and argentina captain hes definaition of worldclass and cant be ovsrstated he was thrown i with messi in world cup and was irreplacable...he plays with salah ileverpool and cinnects with ease. The est pleyers aways play better with other legends because everyone can play football but few have that cerebral uality to read a game step ortwo ahead. idane, pirlo, xai, iniesta, messi, modric, sneijder in prime, ozil, whole spain midfield as mentioned xavu , iniesta, xabi alonso, busquets, faregas, david silva, juan mata was midfield for 2012 euro lol. Macca has itand he defends like a demon as whole argentina dquad does and plays energy like all liverpool does, he defends, retains ball, first touch as good as any, picks a pass as good as any and is truning into a lethal long shot and free kick taker I think hes replacing messi as best free kick tajer i world and shoul only improve next 4-5years. Hes outplayed rodri because rodri is superstar for big moments mao,cca is tenacious whistle to whistle and can play 6-8-10 depending on whats needed hes signing of season and lpayer of season andlike messi maybe even more so as hes soeaksu hes the most likeable player in prem opposing fans cant hate him they wish they had him but hes class in every way. Argentina next ten , echeverri may work his way in alvarez, garnaho, enzo, lo celso, romero, lisandro otamendi, mlina, acuna, dibu with legends like messi , di maria, lauturo and work horses like depaul, paredes this is most clear cut #1 team in world since xavi and inuesta spain side. They can beat you in more ways than that spain side that defended controlled an look for a goal. Argentina can press, hit you on counter, they play possession theyhave become a juggernaut so much credit to scaloni
