Jurgen Klopp blasts Neville brothers over Loris Karius

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has launched a withering attack on pundit Gary Neville after the former Manchester United defender’s criticism of goalkeeper Loris Karius.

After the 4-3 defeat at Bournemouth, Neville said the summer signing from Mainz was “miles away” only for Karius to respond in an interview published at the weekend by saying: “He was a manager for a short bit and now he is back to being an expert again”.

Karius came under more scrutiny after his error led to Dimitri Payet scoring a free-kick in the 2-2 draw with West Ham on Sunday but Klopp was not interested in getting into a debate about his goalkeeper.
