EPL: Man City wouldn’t have won title if their three centre-halves were injured – Klopp
Published
Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp, has insisted that Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City would not have won the Premier League title this season if their three centre-halves were injured.
Klopp disclosed this during his pre-match press conference ahead of Liverpool’s Premier League final day fixture against Crystal Palace on Sunday.
Liverpool were without defender Virgil van Dijk for the majority of the campaign with a ruptured cruciate ligament, while Joe Gomez was sidelined shortly afterwards with a knee injury before Joel Matip became the third long-term absentee at centre back.
