Klopp told BT Sport: The dressing room is not flying in this moment.I wish we could have won this game, but with all the praise for Tottenham – they sit back. They drew against us, got results against Man City and Chelsea. The game plan works for these games but they are still fifth. Tim...
I'm really happy with the performance and proud of the mentality they showed against an incredibly good opponent with a game plan, Klopp told BT Sport.
We have to make sure firstly that they are physically ready and with the targets that they are mentally ready, said Klopp. It is like other sports like a marathon or climbing mountains, it is long.
We cannot say these are the bad guys -- opportunity makes bad guys, Klopp said. In this case, UEFA has one of the biggest games ever and they will not gift the tickets like this.
They are now the massive favourites with all the experience they have and all these kind of things, said Klopp. We are more experienced than we were, probably, but it's obviously not to compare.
All the things we know about City… they are too good, Klopp said. Yeah, it was a massive blow, everybody was ready to switch the tele off and then all of a sudden part two started.
I'm not happy, but not as sad as the players are right now and it is my job to explain why something happens like this, Klopp told BBC Sport.
