Jurgen Klopp says he has not sought a personal apology from Liverpool s owners following the European Super League fiasco, but says they are good, not bad people .
Speaking for the first time since the breakaway scheme fell apart, Klopp says he hopes the damage done can be repaired quickly. They all learned their lesson. They will not come around the corner next week and try to do something. Iâm pretty sure of that. But now we have to make sure we donât get any harm off it, a different atmosphere in the club or something. That would be the really bad thing about it. They tried something, it wasnât allowed, so letâs go back to the beautiful game it always was.

He tried to copyright the word Liverpool. Tried to furlough staff. Tried to force through Project Big Picture. Tried to charge fans £77 for tickets. Tried to break away to a Super League. An apology only carries weight if it suggests you have learnt from your mistakes. How many? Daniel Storey (@danielstorey85) April 21, 2021

The withdrawals by Manchester City, Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham came just 48 hours after the league s unveiling on Monday following a furious response from fans and officials. The three Italian clubs involved - Juventus, AC Milan and Inter Milan - admitted defeat and La Liga leaders Atletico Madrid also pulled out. Real Madrid and Barcelona - the last of the initial group of 12 clubs to sign up - have yet to make any comment on their future plans but the project in its current form is dead in the water.
