Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has suggested the weather was partly to blame for his side drawing with neighbours Everton at Goodison Park.The Reds are now second in the Premier League – a point behind Manchester City – after failing to get the three points in a game where they missed a number of big chances.

Liverpool have won just one of their last four matches in all competitions and this result is a blow to their ambitions of winning a first league title in 29 years.And although the German didn’t say the weather was primarily to blame for his side’s shortcomings, he made reference to the Storm Freya winds playing a part.

Everything Jurgen Klopp has blamed for bad Liverpool results
It’s not the first time Klopp has blamed the weather for Liverpool’s shortcomings this season – with the German blaming the wind for their FA Cup defeat at Wolves and the snow for their draw at home to Leicester in the league in January.However, despite this latest setback, Klopp claimed his feeling about his players is getting better.Klopp added: “Game by game my feeling about the boys gets better because they look really ready for it.“Of course we didnt score but that happens.“It was just a fight and we are ready for that fight and now we have a point more than before. All good.” And Klopp went on to insist he does not care about Liverpool’s league position with more than two months of the season remaining.“We don’t play PlayStation. Do you think we didn’t take enough risks? That’s a really disappointing question, I have to say,” was Klopp’s response.“There are nine games to go, we don’t lose our nerve like you obviously. It’s the second time you ask a question I really don’t get.“There’s not a moment where we say, ‘Come on now, throw everything in that direction’. You cannot play in the Premier League like that.“We take all the risks but you cannot take more than 100 per cent risk, going nuts.“I don’t think I have to give my players advice because they know it already. We are not little boys any more.”
