Klopp: I am happy for the punishment we got with losing two points

Added at:

Jürgen Klopp admitted Liverpool’s performance in the 2-2 draw at Fulham fell below the standards expected.

"The best news about this game is the result, so I am really fine with the point. I know we could've won the game, that wouldn't have made our performance a little bit better, but we could have, but it would have been too much today. I am happy for the punishment we got with losing two points, if you want. I know you can see that differently – Fulham might say as well they lost two points – but that’s how football is. We all can see it our way. But again, the most positive thing is the result.

The performance was a defeat – the result is not a defeat but the performance was a defeat and that's why we have to figure out what happened. It can happen. And again, if we win today and don’t learn anything from the game, much worse than getting a point and learn the right things – I'm fine with that. So that's what we are working on now. That's not us today, it was not us today. I don’t want to take anything away from Fulham, they did really well, but to be 100 per cent honest, we were in front of the goal and should’ve scored, so that’s the truth as well. We played a really bad game and get a point, so that's all a truth as well. But playing the way we played is not how we should play and that’s why my frustration about that is pretty high".
