Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp did a nice thing as the Reds beat Everton 1-0 thanks to a last minute goal and now fans can’t deal with it.

There are a few moving parts to this one. So Divock Origi headed home after an awful Jordan Pickford clearance, which has its own sub-plot.

Next Klopp went bananas, as anyone would have done, and ran onto the pitch to have a little hug and dance with goalkeeper Alisson Becker.

After realizing what he’d done, and how it may be misconstrued, the German used some of his media time to apologise to Toffies boss Marco Silva. No disrespect, said Silva.

But salty football supporters from around the country appear to have a problem with Klopp and are already spouting their boring, tired and overused ‘media agenda’ conspiracy theories.

If the Liverpool manager is found to have broken rules, of course he should be banned. But for fans to take up space arguing, complaining and being bitter towards the result and the man speaks of dangerous levels of spite.

Having a little bit of passion is understandable given the unique pressure football managers are under. It should be allowed. And sometimes people do things they regret while under the influence of massive releases – but the instant apology speaks of a decent bloke who got a little carried away.

And don’t for a second think that if your team scored a last minute winner in a massive derby, that you would be calling for immediate sanctions and dragging his name through the mud. In fact, you’d love it.

So just let the players and staff enjoy the wins before raining down a stream of vitriol. And when Klopp speaks in an attempt to make up for his actions, throw him an olive branch.

Whatever the league does next is out of his control, but at least Klopp isn’t.
