James McClean: Klopp is a 'bit of an idiot'

At various times during the 2-2 draw, there were words exchanged between Klopp and West Brom counterpart Tony Pulis.

And, at the final whistle, there was no handshake between the pair as Klopp raced to celebrate Liverpool's late equaliser with his players.

He was confronted by a member of West Brom's backroom staff, coach Mark O'Connor.

McClean played the whole match, and the 26-year-old Republic of Ireland international was unimpressed by what followed the full-time whistle.

He said of Klopp: "I've got respect for the man because he's done a great job at Dortmund, but I think he's a bit of an idiot if I'm being honest.

"In the game on Sunday .- you can't act that way. Win, lose or draw, you've got to be respectful."
