Jürgen Klopp got the reaction he demanded and the reward he craved. Liverpool will make a quick return to Brighton, scene of their humbling in the Premier League on Saturday, having held off a determined yet toothless Wolves to secure a fourth round trip to the Amex Stadium.
The Liverpool manager had wanted another bite at Brighton to make amends for the 3-0 reverse that he described as one of the most galling experiences of his managerial career. “I’m not going to be a big mouth and say ‘We are coming again’ but we will go there and try to play better than last time,” he said.
