The Reds were defeated in Naples, where the hosts had a 4-0 lead before Luis Diaz netted a consolation.
However, It continued a string of poor performances they’ve had this year, including a loss to Manchester United and draws against Fulham, Crystal Palace, and Everton in the Premier League.
Liverpool owners are not like Chelsea’s owners klopp says:
Klopp despite picking up just two victories from seven games across all competitions this season, however, has taken a swipe at Chelsea, stating that Liverpool’s owners – Fenway Sports Group – do not act like Chelsea’s American proprietor Todd Boehly.
“Not really, but who knows?” Klopp said, reacting to a question about his future at Anfield. “The difference is we have different kinds of owners. Ours are more calm and expect me to sort it and not think that someone else will.
“That’s how they see it. The day they change their thoughts they might tell me.”
