Klopp: Liverpool cannot win the Premier League playing like Mourinho.
Jurgen Klopp has defended his team's playing style following a goalless draw with Mourinho's Manchester United, and stated his side cannot win the Premier League using the Special One's tactics.
The Reds were frustrated at home on Saturday as Mourinho's United parked the bus, and were forced to share points in a 0-0 tie.
That result leaves Liverpool nine points behind Premier League leaders Manchester City after just eight games, and the 27-year wait for the title at Anfield looks likely to be not happening this season.
"Most things [Manchester United] did were completely clear. Why should I talk about them sitting back before the game? That's not my job," the German told reporters.
"Jose obviously did what he thinks is right, or what he wants to do, and that is OK. It doesn't make life easier for us but I can't moan and say 'Come on, open up a little bit'. That's not how it is.
"They want to win the league and I am sure we couldn't play like this in Liverpool after 125 years without the title. We cannot sit back and say 'Let's wait' — that is not possible."
