POST-MATCH COMMENTS
“It was five against one, near the sideline, and nobody won the ball. Then cross, Andy Carroll, 2-0, thank you very much! If you know the other team has Andy Carroll, how can you allow crosses? It was not enough from my team today. The decisive moments we were there, but we were not there 100 per cent. We could have done much better. We had our moments, we tried, but if you fight at 95 per cent then it’s not enough. It’s my responsibility. I’m angry about myself today,” – Jürgen Klopp, Liverpool manager
“We created many not only on the break but from open play and we could have scored more. To keep a clean sheet at home to Liverpool is brilliant for the fans and it’s a brilliant start to the New Year. We played a really good game – especially in the second half. Of course Liverpool had their moments because they are a good passing team but we defended really well as a team,” – Slaven Bilic, West Ham manager
