However, the Reds’ number 8 refuted suggestions that the kickabout was disrespectful towards their opponents and that the players weren’t focused on the job in hand. Szoboszlai hits back over keepy-uppy criticism In an interview with the Daily Mail , Szoboszlai explained why he felt there was nothing wrong with what the Liverpool players did before the game. He said: “The thing that people don’t know is that we used to do this before every game throughout the whole of last season, and through this season.
We did it every game, and we just don’t want to change it. “It’s not that we disrespect someone. We just want to get into football.
We just want to be with each other. I think it is better to play one-touch and warm-up with a football than sit in the changing room, be on your own, and just don’t talk to each other. “It was an hour before the game.
Trust me, 10 minutes before the game starts, everybody’s ready. It doesn’t matter if we played one-touch or we didn’t. ” Want more Empire of the Kop coverage?
