If there is one thing Jurgen Klopp will not miss about English football, it is the Premier League's early kick-off slot on a Saturday.

The Liverpool boss has made no secret of his dislike for the 12.30pm kick-off time, and referred to it in 2018 as the "breakfast" slot, external.

Klopp took aim at the Premier League and its broadcasters again on Friday, describing the scheduling as "absolutely insane" during his news conference.

He joked: "I was actually waiting for Amnesty International to go to them.

"I would like to be part of that meeting when someone says, ‘Liverpool 12:30’ and the whole room is bursting into laughter.
