WATCH: Jurgen Klopp's merry hell over Christmas fixtures

"Now I have seen the fixtures and I am not too happy," said Klopp.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has voiced his frustration at changes to the fixture schedule which he believes have put unnecessary demands on his side.

The German may have been named September's manager of the month but his mood changed quickly after learning of his side's fixture changes over the Christmas period. The home match against Manchester City has been moved back to a 5.30pm kick-off on New Year's Eve ahead of a trip to Sunderland at 3pm on January 2, leaving them less than 48 hours between the two.
