# Liverpool: Fans blast Simon Jordan over comments about Jurgen Klopp’s “arrogance”

**Former Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan told [talkSPORT](https://talksport.com/football/612099/liverpool-jurgen-klopp-arrogance-simon-jordan/)‘s *The Final Word* programme that he feels Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has become increasingly arrogant following his success at the club.**

\[freshpress-poll id=”251392″\]

Speaking on [talkSPORT](https://talksport.com/football/612099/liverpool-jurgen-klopp-arrogance-simon-jordan/), Jordan wondered if Klopp was “becoming infected by this disease of arrogance that lots of football managers get” and accused him of being “brusque and irritable” in post-match interviews after the Reds’ weekend win over Leicester.

Despite seeing his team score a 95th-minute winner, the Liverpool manager cut an angry figure after the game because of a robust challenge by Hamza Choudhury on Mohamed Salah. Although the Leicester midfielder was booked for the incident, Klopp told [Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11661/11828470/jurgen-klopp-fumes-despite-late-liverpool-win-over-leicester) afterwards that he felt Choudhury should count himself lucky he was not sent off.

However, Klopp’s post-match comments drew scorn from Jordan on [talkSPORT](https://talksport.com/football/612099/liverpool-jurgen-klopp-arrogance-simon-jordan/), who appeared to accuse him of double standards about his reaction to various fouls involving Liverpool players and feels that the Reds manager has displayed a more haughty demeanour following their Champions League win earlier this year.

These Liverpool fans took to Twitter to show their displeasure at Jordan’s comments about Klopp:
