3 times Jurgen Klopp surprised us with his uncanny comments.

Liverpool dropped points yet again vs Everton last Sunday in a goal-less draw after registering a 0-0 draw vs Manchester United at Old Trafford. The riveting title-race has opened the doors for Manchester City, who currently sit at the top of the table separated by just one point.

Liverpool had a five point lead at the start of February but City covered a lot of ground and now look set to defend their Premier League title. City have now won all their games (five) in the league after a shocking defeat to Newcastle.

Klopp became the talking point yet again when he said that the wind caused his side problems and made it difficult for them. The fans and the rival-fans were equally surprised and unsurprisingly, Twitter exploded. Let's have a look at the past incidents when the Liverpool manager tried to cover up for his side's unconvincing performances.

#3 - When snow made life tough for his players

Liverpool FC v Leicester City - Premier League

Klopp blamed the snow when his side failed to register three points against Leicester City in January, this year.

"You saw that the ball didn't roll really," said the German, whose side were denied a second-half penalty in the frustrating draw at Anfield Stadium.

Klopp also came under the radar, when only one half of the pitch was cleared from snow during half time, the one his team were set to attack. However, he said, "It was clear our ground staff tried to clear it but didn't have enough manpower, they realized how difficult it is when they started doing it."

He also added, "There was no plan, nobody told them, I can promise or swear nobody told them clear our pitch side, don't clear their box - where we are more often."

#2 - Injuries to the rival team

This was ridiculous when he blamed Manchester United's injuries that broke his side's rhythm. United had to make all their substitutions in the first half at Old Trafford, with Ander Herrera, Juan Mata, Jesse Lingard coming off to muscle injuries.

A total of four substitutions were made in the first half in the clash of the rivals.

'It’s difficult. It was a strange game,' Klopp told Sky Sports. 'We started really, really well, exactly as we wanted to start.'

'Then the injury crisis started as well. That obviously cost us our rhythm. It was like: ‘What’s going on now?’

He added, 'It was a game without a lot of highlights. It was intense, but for United it’s a point won. For us, we lost two.'

The match ended up in a goal-less draw, with Liverpool losing Firmino, which proved to be decisive in the outcome.

#1 - The wind caused problems

Everton FC v Liverpool FC - Premier League

The most recent came in the frustrating draw vs Everton, which was a must-win game for Liverpool to maintain their lead at the top of the table. Both the sides failed to score and the coach was as animated as ever.

Salah missed a one on one chance against the goal-keeper and Fabinho also had a couple of chances.

After their FA cup exit to Wolves in January, Klopp had told reporters: 'The wind didn’t help, players struggled to control the ball.'

After the reds failed to find the net against Everton, Klopp said, 'It was a very, very difficult game for different reasons. A wild opponent... I know people don’t like it when I say that, but the wind came from all directions. It’s not exactly what we wanted.'

Liverpool will now have to chase Manchester City for the Premier League Title but the German believes his boys are capable of coming back from behind and winning the title.
