The English player surprised with incredible admission 

Brighton’s versatile player James Milner went under the spotlight in the last few hours by making a shocking revelation on his days at Liverpool, where he would have had a great clash with Jürgen Klopp during his stage at the club, when he became a legend in Reds’ history with sensational performances with the Anfield team.

In this sense, according to the English journal Daily Mail, Jürgen Klopp would have had a furious exchange with him in the dressing room during his eight-year Liverpool's career, despite having been largely prepared to receive feedback from players during his time at the club.

Milner, who was Liverpool’s vice captain at that time, revealed for the High Performance Podcast one of the worst episodes of the German manager at the club, where Klopp reacted angrily to his comments in dressing room, as he was trying to share his thoughts about the game they were playing, and the manager, smashing his hands on down the table, shouted him "Will you shut the f*** up".

It wouldn’t have been their first conflict

In this respect, it would be worth remembering that the conflict between Klopp and James Milner wouldn’t have been something new at Liverpool, as the former Liverpool center back Ragnar Klavan had previously claimed that the manager and the player had once come close to having a fight in the dressing room following a match in 2017 when “they almost started fighting but eventually Milner stepped back” as recognized Klavan at that time.
