Sky Sports journalist Rob Dorsett has said that Jurgen Klopp wants to move on from the VAR controversy against Tottenham, revealing that the Liverpool boss believes the injustice could galvanise his side.
Earlier this week, the PMGOL released the audio of the incident, which showed that a basic miscommunication between VAR and the on-field referee led to Luis Diaz’s offside not being overturned (Sky Sports).
Just when it seemed like the controversy was set to die down a bit, Klopp poured more fuel into the fire on Wednesday by stating that he believes that replaying the game would be the fair outcome (Guardian).
However, multiple outlets have since explained that the Premier League will not entertain the possibility of replaying the game despite Liverpool’s attempts to escalate the issue (Football Insider).

Is Jurgen Klopp playing games at Liverpool?
Dorsett has now revealed that he spoke to Klopp after the press conference and that the Liverpool boss insisted that the incident will help motivate his side.
The journalist said on Sky Sports Football Daily: “From Jurgen Klopp’s perspective, he wants to try and move on. Of course, he does.
“He’s got a match in the Europa League tomorrow to prepare for, against Royale Union San-Gilloise, and he’s trying to prepare his players for that.
“He told me outside of this news conference room that he thinks this could galvanise his squad and bring them together.”
Spurs Web Opinion
Klopp clearly knew that a replay was not on the cards and his statement was aimed at putting pressure on the PMGOL and officials. For someone in his position to mention that in his press conference was extremely poor conduct.
