Nobody Cares About How Footballers Deal With The World Cup Schedule – Klopp

Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp has come out to say that it is crazy that the World Cup starts less than a week after the domestic season halts. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, this situation of players getting injured late in the season and missing the World Cup is not new, but the World Cup starting a week after the last domestic game makes it a bigger risk.

Klopp added that it is sad to see how nobody cares about the footballers and how they deal with the tight schedule.

His words, “I hate this subject! These problems were so clear, they were so clear, and nobody mentioned it one time until three or four weeks before the World Cup. And now all of a sudden players get injured and you say ‘he cannot play the World Cup, wow!’.”

“This situation, players getting injured late in the season and missing the World Cup, is not new. After a long season it happens everywhere in the world. But now starting the World Cup a week after the last game, that is a bigger risk. Crazy.”

“Nobody cares about us and how we deal with it. You ask me the question now. What do you think I should do? Should I ask the players before Southampton or Derby, ‘do you really want to play?’ We are all guilty, and you more than I am, for letting it happen in the first place. And now it happens and that is it, we have to go along with it and the players who get injured and cannot play it is a disaster, but how can we change that?”
