- Liverpool manager wanted red card for Aaron Cresswell
- David Moyes: ‘I want us to challenge top-four teams’
Jürgen Klopp was left incensed with the referee, Craig Pawson, and his video assistant Stuart Attwell after Liverpool’s 3-2 defeat by West Ham on Sunday, claiming the officials had let down his players in regard to two key decisions and accusing Attwell of “hiding” behind Pawson on both calls.
West Ham have leapfrogged Liverpool into third after a barnstorming game at the London Stadium. Klopp congratulated the victors for the ruthlessness they showed from set pieces and on the counter-attack but he felt the game was shaped ultimately by the manner in which his side fell behind after four minutes and the decision not to send off Aaron Cresswell for his challenge on Jordan Henderson shortly afterwards.
