Jurgen Klopp was clearly frustrated with a reporter's line of questioning following Liverpool's 1-0 home defeat at the hands of Brighton on Wednesday.

Liverpool's title defence took another setback with their fourth defeat of the season, which leaves them seven points behind leaders Manchester City, who also have two games in hand over the Reds.

However, Klopp had no interest in discussing the gap to City. "These gaps are not interesting at the moment because they are the result of the results we had already," said Klopp ahead of his side's meeting with Pep Guardiola's men on Sunday.
