Jurgen Klopp has explained his recent Didi Hamann criticism was fuelled by constant comments made by the ex-Liverpool midfielder over the years.
The Reds' boss took offence to a question in a press conference over whether his side were lacking a 'spark' and delivered a sarcastic response after learning this was a comment made by Hamann.
"I actually think Didi Hamann does not deserve that you use his phrase to ask a question. Do me a favour and ask your own question. Try to ask without using the word spark," Klopp told reporters when asked if he agreed with the verdict of the Reds' 2005 Champions League final winner.
