Liverpool manager insists he will not judge any of his young players on their performance in the 2-1 Europa League dead-rubber defeat to Union Saint Gilloise in Brussels.
Klopp’s team was the youngest in their history by some considerable margin to play a European game with an average age of just 21.9 years and six players aged 20.
Their inexperience was punished by the Belgian league leaders, who Klopp praised post-match.
“They are well set up, top of the table, they played a strong side,” the Liverpool boss said.
