Jürgen Klopp has defended his centre-back Dejan Lovren after he was criticised for Liverpool’s 3-0 loss at Watford, the first league defeat his side has suffered this season. Klopp insisted most defenders in the world would have struggled against Watford’s frontman Troy Deeney. Speaking in the run-up to Tuesday’s FA Cup tie against Chelsea, the Liverpool manager said: ‘If anybody gave Dejan Lovren the blame for our defeat then I can’t help these people.’

"when did we play?"
You would think klopp wouldn't forget considering they were counting the days for the unbeaten run record
Nice of klopp to defend lovren. Get me a coach like him
My favourite sport world knight
Granted the whole Liverpool squad were terrible but Lovren was the worst player on the pitch. The 1st goal he let the ball bounce over him ,2nd goal he let Sarr run of him ,3rd goal he fell over let troy deeney free to score . Just another day at the office for Lovren though
Bravo
You have a tendency to protect your players. But Lovern sucks. Accept it.
