Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits he didn't mince his words when speaking to Alisson after defeat to Manchester City.

Two errors from the goalkeeper saw Liverpool thumped 4-1 at Anfield on Sunday.

Klopp later revealed: "I said to him already, 'We have stands, you can shoot the ball there.' It is like it is. Different things came together, we didn't offer exactly the right things because in the first half Ali played exceptional football. He was really calm on the ball, passing the ball through in small spaces, exactly what we wanted him to do. Then in the second half, in the beginning he didn't do that.

"He didn't see the offers because we didn't make them exactly in the right way and the problem is [then] he doesn't shoot the ball somewhere far away from the dangerous spots. He knows that. It is now not about that and I can't help him now through the night, but we all have nights like this and tomorrow he will be OK again and then we will go again."
