Sean Dyche ‘confused’ about Jurgen Klopp comments on tackling during Burnley vs Liverpool game
A war of words between Sean Dyche and Jurgen Klopp is escalating as Burnley’s manager came out fighting in response to criticism from the Liverpool boss.Klopp was unhappy with what he thought was overly physical approach from the Clarets’ during his side’s 3-1 victory at Turf Moor on Wednesday and revealed he asked referee Stuart Atwell to curb the challenges despite accepting they were not fouls.Jurgen Klopp was unhappy with a number of tackles from Burnley players4

Joe Gomez suffered an ankle injury in a challenge by Ben Mee, but Dyche commended his players for their tackling, citing Phil Bardsley’s challenge on Albert Moreno, which was not given as a foul, as the only dubious one.The manager also told his opposite number to get his own house in order.Sean Dyche doesn’t understand where Jurgen Klopp is coming from4

“I was a little bit confused. I think he said there was a sliding tackle from some distance that everyone liked and it was a good tackle but you’re not allowed to do that tackle.“There were some excellent tackles last night. I think the only one that was questionable was Bardo’s. I think Ben Mee’s was a fantastic tackle, and I think Gomez realised that. That was the messages we got after. We send him our best if there is any injury but it’s not from a bad tackle.“Of course football managers can question whatever they want but I don’t think they can reinvent the rules.”Dyche compared Klopp’s attitude with that of the Liverpool team he watched as a boyhood Reds’ fan, and also accused Daniel Sturridge of a first-half dive.Dyche didn’t think Liverpool deserved a free-kick when Sturridge was sent tumbling to the ground4

“It’s funny, he didn’t reference Daniel Sturridge’s cheating,” said the Burnley boss, who again played down an apparent verbal joust with Klopp following the final whistle. “He never got touched, nothing near him, and actually got a free-kick.“I watched Liverpool as a kid and was a Liverpool fan growing up and they had a fantastic side of skill, will, demand and a physical edge.“If that has gone, or the suggestion is you’re not allowed to make those tackles that our lads made last night, and it’s been replaced by cheating, I absolutely am happy to be old-fashioned.“I just can’t believe Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool fans – and I don’t believe they do – would want cheating in the game and sacrifice good, honest challenges.”Dyche believes his side are subject to lazy stereotypes and that a lack of physicality has been one of the reasons they have struggled this season. “I think year on year we’ve been very low on bookings, sendings-off, and the like, so we can’t be that physical,” he said. “Last week we had the long ball thing against Newcastle; we had 478 passes. Nearly impossible to just be kicking it down the pitch.“The perception against the fact is often different. I’d go as far as to say we haven’t been physical enough in some games. Our tackle count’s down, our blocking count’s down, so how are you judging physicality?Liverpool came from 1-0 down to win 3-1 at Turf Moor4

“I don’t remember getting beaten by Man City and saying, ‘Well they were a disgrace, they had 800 passes, they shouldn’t be allowed to do that’. There’s different ways of playing. You’ve got to try to win a game, and it’s very, very difficult for us at the moment quite obviously.”Dyche, meanwhile, insisted there has been no meaningful approach for Tom Heaton regarding a January move but admitted the England keeper, who has had to play second fiddle to Joe Hart this season, could leave.“There’s a possible chance,” he said. “Joe’s done well on the whole but we have conceded a lot of goals. Tom’s right in the thick of it and pushing constantly because of the top-class pro that he is.”
