As Jürgen Klopp hailed his Liverpool players for their “best performance of the season”, Javi Gracia said he did not have an explanation for the defensive collapse that has seen Leeds concede 11 goals in two games.
The interim Leeds manager looked shocked after watching his team lose 6-1 to Liverpool. “It’s hard to manage,” said Gracia, eight days after seeing relegation-threatened Leeds surrender 5-1 to Crystal Palace at home. “I don’t remember ever conceding so many goals in two games in my entire career but I am here to give my best to try and help the team and the club. At this moment I don’t have an explanation for what’s happened. We’re losing composure. It’s hard to accept.
