Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp gave a cheeky assessment of his side's win at Chelsea to American TV.

The Reds secured a vital 2-1 win at Stamford Bridge on Sunday with goals from Trent Alexander-Arnold and Roberto Firmino.

And speaking to NBC television after the match, Klopp could not resist using a word usually only heard after the watershed.

Former Chelsea star Graeme Le Saux, working as a pundit for NBC Sports, questioned Klopp about the drop-off in the second half that saw the home side turn the screw.

He asked: "Did you feel [Liverpool] were a little bit passive? Got a little bit deeper and invited a little bit of pressure?"

Klopp said: "It's not the first time that we go 2-0 up.

"But three ex pros, you know...2-0 can be a b**ch!

"Especially away from home."
