JAKARTA - Jurgen Klopp complained about the independence of Liverpool players and called the 0-1 defeat to Crystal Palace as "garbage" after the 33rd week of the Premier League match at Anfield Stadium, Sunday 14 April.Liverpool suffered a second defeat at home after being humiliated by Atalanta 0-3 in the Europa League quarter-finals on Thursday 11 April which became the first defeat at Anfield for 14 months. The German coach who left Liverpool late this season also cursed by saying that the defeat was like "garbage" and regretted his team's attitude that did not give a reaction after Eberechi Eze netted a ball into the RIGHT goal in the first half. "It feels like 100 per cent of the trash, Klopp said as reported by AFP today. The first half made us have problems that we couldn't finish in the second half," he said.' In the first half I wanted to see a reaction from the last game (the loss from Atalanta). We saw the reaction, but it was not the reaction we wanted. You could see the team not fully sure. We are not entirely confident," he said. This defeat makes Liverpool stuck in the third position, the two-digit difference of the leader of the Manchester City standings. On the other hand, Arsenal who lost from Aston Villa occupyed the second position with the same points as the Reds, 71 numbers. After this, Liverpool will face three away matches against Fulham, Everton and West Ham in the next two weeks. Klopp also stated that they wanted to immediately improve the team's performance even with a short time. "If we did aim for the title and trophy," added Robertson. "We are running out of power in front of the goal. Two games now there are no goals in Anfield, which are very rare, "said the Scottish captain.
