Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp played down his blast for Anfield fans after their Carabao Cup win against West Ham.
Klopp was critical of the atmosphere, but before Saturday's clash with Arsenal he explained his remarks.
"Maybe I have to...I can tell our people, I don't order atmospheres, we had two home games in a row and 62 [shots]," said Klopp.
"Imagine if we'd have scored [more]. It's my feeling directly after the game. I turned around and missed a chance and people were flat.
"I said give your ticket to someone else but people tell me it's not that easy! I didn't mean it [literally]. I cannot change that not, I said we need Anfield that is 100% true and I can't wait for the first whistle."
