Jurgen Klopp reflects on Elliott injury after convincing win at Leeds

Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that Harvey Elliott is in hospital after suffering an ankle injury in Liverpool’s 3-0 win against Leeds United on Sunday.
Mohamed Salah, Fabinho and Sadio Mane were on target as the Reds cruised to victory at Elland Road.
“Mo’s record is crazy,” Klopp told BBC Match of the Day.
“He is still hungry and I don’t know how many records he can break.
“Since he joined us he has been the perfect player - a top class player.”
However, the match was overshadowed by a horror injury to young midfielder Elliott.
“It is his ankle. I heard it was dislocated and they couldn’t put it back and he is now in hospital,” an emotional Klopp told Sky Sports.
“Do I want such a young boy to have this experience in his career? No. We will play football without him, but we will wait for him as well because he is a top player.
“I saw the situation. I could see his foot was not in the right place. That is why we were all shocked.”
When asked on his lengthy conversation with the fourth official, the German said: “I’m not sure this is the right moment to speak about these sort of things.”
Opposing manager Marcelo Bielsa also gave his opinion on the injury and red card decision, saying: “I regret dearly what happened, I wish it did not happen.
“For that to happen to any player is saddening. For a young player playing at a high level even more. I am sure my player did not have the intention to harm him in any way.
“Perhaps what happened after he recovered the ball caused the injury. The tackle was clear but clearly the acceleration at how our player moved caused it. In no way did he have provoke any harm to the opponent.
“I regret dearly the opponent was injured and I’m 100% certain our player did not have a bad intention. I wish it had not happened.”
Leeds United owner Andrea Radrizzani also spoke to Sky Sports, saying: “I wish the boy well. This is football. It’s accidental. Personally I feel sorry for the boy. The injury is difficult for him. We cannot control that kind of injury. It was accidental but I am honestly sorry for the player.”
