Jurgen Klopp wants Liverpool to be awarded the three points if their game with Manchester United on Monday at Old Trafford is called off due to fan protests.
United supporter group The 1958 this week announced plans to protest against the vile ownership and show the Glazer family this time it will not blow over.
Fan protests ahead of the game between the two clubs in May 2021, when fans gained access to the stadium despite the game being scheduled behind closed doors due to COVID-19 protocols, caused the contest to be postponed, with Liverpool winning the rearranged fixture 4-2 a week and a half later.
When asked at a press conference on Friday if the club has made plans for a similar situation on Monday, Klopp said: Yeah, we will get on the bus and go home.
I really hope it doesn t happen but if it happens I think we should get the points. We have nothing to do with the situation. If that happens the supporters want the game to not happen then we cannot just rearrange the game again and fit it in somewhere in an incredibly busy [calendar].
I don t think and really hope this will not happen. I have no idea what could happen, I don t think about it. Hopefully, we are fine, we go there, play the game and go home. But if, and I think always in this situation like this, the other team should get the points because they have nothing to do with it. They have prepared for it.
