The German tactician has remained diplomatic in light of the Reds CEO's interview suggesting the club was back at the top

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has played down Anfield chief executive Peter Moore’s recent comments.

Moore was interviewed by former Reds striker Michael Robinson at the World Football Summit in Madrid and stated that the club were “back on our perch” following their Champions League success last term.

“I'll try to Google it, but I am not sure I will find out what it means exactly,” Klopp said.

“What I heard is how it often is in life, without the context. We are all adults and we say things and sometimes people have to deal with things that I say and in this case people seem to think I have to deal with things Peter said.

“I'm not angry about him or whatever. I like Peter. So now if people come to me constantly and ask, 'Are you still on the perch or not?' I still won't understand what the word 'perch' means.”
