Jurgen Klopp vs Chris Wilder is not the feud we expected this year but 2020 is not the year we expected and we are learning to just accept these things.
Wiler and Klopp’s feud began when Wilder criticised the Liverpool boss for supporting a new rule change which would see the introduction of 5 substitutes in the Premier League. Wilder argued that the new rule would benefit the richer, bigger clubs as they would have a better bench to choose from.
Klopp then snapped back saying that Wilder voted for 3 subs yet only has 1 point. Wilder then seemed to just accept this and move on when asked about it.
🗣 "I'm not interested in that today, As Jurgen's good observation said we're still on that 1 point. There's 20 votes in this league, we have to look after ourselves. I will always look after Sheffield United"

Jurgen was not going to let it lie though as yesterday he brought up Chris’s name again, is he living in the German’s head rent free?
“If I say it helps, then Chris Wilder will say it’s not OK that Liverpool have supporters and Sheffield United not”

Will Chris respond or is it just the Liverpool man beating a dead bush?
