'We're a bit busy' - Amnesty International share hilarious response to Jurgen Klopp rant after Liverpool boss asked for intervention over 'criminal' fixture list

Premier League

Liverpool

Wolverhampton

<p>In a passionate rant ahead of Liverpool's clash against Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield, Klopp <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/jurgen-klopp-amnesty-international-intervene-premier-league-fixture-list-liverpool-tnt-sports/blt7eacc4b5b384c430#cs70f97713e228e564" target="_blank">voiced his frustration over the scheduling decisions</a> made by broadcasters. The focus of his ire was the disproportionate number of early kick-offs, particularly the 12.30 pm Saturday slot, which Liverpool have frequently been allocated, despite their mid-week European League commitments.</p><p></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Hi Jurgen,<br> <br>Maybe next year.

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Klopp's unconventional call for intervention from Amnesty International to address the fixture congestion dilemma drew an unexpected response from the human rights organisation. Taking to Twitter, Amnesty humorously wrote: "Hi Jurgen, Maybe next year. We're a bit busy at the moment. But, feel free to donate to us in the meantime. Thanks."</p>

WHAT AMNESTY SAID

<p>Liverpool have seen a slump in their recent domestic form winning just one of their last five Premier League matches. Currently occupying the third position in the league standings with 75 points, Klopp's side trails league leaders Arsenal by five points and second-placed Manchester City by four, with the latter holding a game in hand.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>TNT Sports<a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/jurgen-klopp-liverpool-tnt-sports-reaction/blt610943f0b4c231ef#cs12de30d3639b1a7a" target="_blank"> also took a dig at Klopp</a>, mocking his disdain for early kick-off, with a witty tweet.</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">📩 1 new applicant <a href="https://t.co/Ma20DUhAjg">pic.twitter.com/Ma20DUhAjg</a></p>— Football on TNT Sports (@footballontnt) <a href="https://twitter.com/footballontnt/status/1786381599216431459?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 3, 2024</a></blockquote>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>While Klopp's concerns highlight the pressing need for a more equitable and balanced fixture schedule, the response from Amnesty International adds a touch of levity to a contentious issue. Nonetheless, with only two league fixtures remaining after the Spurs clash, including an away trip to Aston Villa and a home fixture against Wolves on the final day, Liverpool will be looking to finish their campaign on a perfect note before bidding adieu to the legendary manager.</p>
