    Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says the Premier League "has to change" its fixture scheduling, with Manchester City counterpart Pep Guardiola adding that players are not protected.

    It follows Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's criticism of match timings, with his Manchester United team kicking off at 12:30 GMT on Saturday after playing on Wednesday in the Champions League.

    Liverpool and Manchester City played out a 1-1 draw on Sunday after also both having had European fixtures in midweek.

    Klopp told BBC Sport: "The boys are on the edge. No team on a Wednesday night should have the 12:30 kick-off on Saturday.

    "Sunday - no problem. Not the 12:30 because that is a complete killer. You wake up and play football. This is the recovery phase.

    "The Premier League has to change. Sky, BT, you - everyone has to talk to each other.

    "You want good football? Give the boys a few hours more rest."

    I don't agree with Klopp. In the lower leagues we have a schedule of Sat Tue Sat Tue, week in, week out. Over a week ago we had our keeper injured, we had to sign an emergency loan. When our players get injured we have no one to replace them, I'm sick of hearing Klopp crying when Liverpool have an enormous squad and shhite loads of money.

    I'm not defending him, but the Klopp would say that in the lower leagues everyone's playing a similar schedule.
    You play Tuesday and Saturday, but so does everyone else.
    Man Utd played in the week, but Everton didn't. Arsenal had a midweek game, Villa didn't.

    The clubs in Europe know that's coming and have plenty of money to deal with it, though.
    The Premier League should want to make that schedule less taxing to get better games.

    For two consecutive matches we had players sent off. I was fuming at them, because my first thought is fooking great, now who we got. Our players can't have a rest, because apart from the bench we have no one else. We already have more loans than we were physically allowed to play.

    But the size of the team is hugely different. We get a player sent off or injured, we are fooked. Our players can never have a rest.

    They could always opt out of Europe, sure there's plenty of clubs that would happily take their place.

    That's not the league's or every other clubs problem ultimately.

    Bet there's not an outcry when the extended CL comes in.

    I agree, but that's also true of your opponents.
    Teams in Europe have to learn to rest and rotate players or they will drop points against teams that don't have as many games.
    They should be able to handle that though, as they generally have more money and bigger squads.

    I see where PNP is coming from about Klopp wanting 'better' games. He wants to give a quality performance, in the lower leagues we can only ever play with shhite a majority of the time, so I can't relate to Klopp's scenario I suppose.

    It's not entirely true of our opponents, because a specific club in our league took players from us, because they had a millionaire owner, and during covid we couldn't afford to keep them, with no games being played or being played behind closed doors, so we had to let players go. There was no plan to help us through that crisis, yet we are supposed to be understanding about playing too many games, I just can't relate to it, in comparison.

    How do these elite players spend their extra time relaxing?

    That's a whole can of worms.

    I don't think that other Premier League clubs can relate to it either, to be honest.
    Sean Dyche is supposed to feel sorry for him because their schedule's a bit tight? Don't think so! <laugh>

    The Premier League should plan the weekends a little more sensibly at the moment, though.
    Everton v Man Utd kicking off early is unnecessary when it could be two teams that didn't play in Europe.
    They should want teams to do well in European competitions and packing the schedule that tightly doesn't help.
