Liverpool's Klopp speaks on FA charge
Klopp spoke on the situation ahead of the Reds clash against Fulham.
“I will not say anything about it. The refs don’t say what is said so I don’t say what is said.
“My celebration was unnecessary, which is fair, but what he said to me when he gave me the yellow card is not okay.
“We have our history with Mr Tierney. I really don’t know what this man has with us. He always says there is nothing but that is not true. The way he looks at me. It’s difficult to understand.”
Liverpool will continue their chase for a top-four finish when they welcome Fulham to Anfield on Tuesday night.
