Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says Premier League 12:30 Saturday kick-offs are a 'crime' - and the stats suggest his team suffer most.
If there is one thing Jurgen Klopp will not miss about English football, it is the Premier League's early kick-off on a Saturday.
He joked: "I was actually waiting for Amnesty International to go to them. I would like to be part of that meeting when someone says ‘Liverpool 12:30’ and the whole room is bursting into laughter." It prompted Wayne Rooney to tell the Dutchman to "get on with it" - but if Liverpool feel unfairly targeted, then they may have a point.Of the 331 Premier League matches that Klopp has taken charge of at Liverpool, 13.6% have been given an early kick-off time - a higher percentage than any other club during his time in England.
Liverpool's overall Premier League win percentage under Klopp is 63% but it drops to 49% for matches played in the lunchtime slot.But he added that the impact of early kick-off times does not just affect his team, suggesting the Premier League's scheduling is partly to blame for English clubs' struggles in Europe this season.for example - would mean if they go out no English team will be in any kind of European final," said Klopp.
There are further considerations to be made, including fans' travel arrangements, broadcast slots and policing.'Liverpool paying price for popularity' - analysisTNT’s only broadcast 'slot' is the Saturday lunchtime one, so that is their opportunity to get the 'biggest' teams on their channel. No team can be in that specific slot more than six times in a season.
