Jurgen Klopp “doesn’t seem right this season”, according to BBC pundit Chris Sutton.
The German continues to do a remarkable job as Liverpool manager, guiding them to Champions League and Premier League glory in the last two seasons.
Klopp has had to tackle an injury crisis in 2020/21, but despite that, the Reds are still top of the table and have reached the last-16 in Europe.
Speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live on Monday, however, Sutton bizarrely claimed that the Liverpool boss hasn’t been himself of late:

Read Liverpool Verdict
It is a strange remark from Sutton, who admittedly likes to say things for a reaction sometimes.
Yes, Klopp has cut a frustrated figure at times, whether it be because of injuries, VAR decisions or the fixture schedule, but he has always worn his heart on his sleeve.
The truth is that Klopp is no different to normal, acting delighted when Liverpool win and often venting his anger when points are dropped.
It seems like an attempt to make a story out of nothing and an opportunity to have a dig at the 53-year-old for no apparent reason.
