Jurgen Klopp gets Liverpool replay support as 'crazy' VAR mistakes slammed

Former Liverpool winger Jermaine Pennant agrees with Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp that Tottenham Hotspur vs Liverpool replayed.

The Reds' boss sat down in front of the press to preview his side's upcoming Europa League tie with Union Saint-Gilloise, but of course the talk was dominated by the events of recent days instead.

What route Anfield chiefs choose to take having now received the audio of Saturday's match officials making their costly error to not award Luis Diaz a goal was unknown prior to Klopp's latest comments, and there is still no official word.
