British media 'The Athletic' reported on the 3rd (Korea time) that "Jurgen Klopp said that the fact that English teams did not perform well in the European match this season was affected by the harsh game schedule."

The European matches were the worst for the Premier League this season. The Premier League had Manchester United, Manchester City, Newcastle and Arsenal in the Champions League, but Newcastle and Manchester United were eliminated in the group stage, and Manchester City and Arsenal were defeated in the quarterfinals.

Liverpool and West Ham also played in the Europa League. Liverpool was knocked out of the quarterfinals by defeat by Atalanta, and West Ham were also knocked out by Leverkusen. The only remaining PL team is Aston Villa in the Conference League, and Aston Villa also lost to Olympiacos 2-4 in the first leg of the semifinals.

Klopp warned Premier League players that they were overloaded, claiming that broadcasters were partly to blame. "I saw Aston Villa lose 2-4 in the first leg of the conference semifinals yesterday," Klopp told TNT Sports. "If Villa are eliminated, there will be no English team in this year's European final."

He continued, "With this result, do you interpret that all the English teams performed below expectations? Perhaps we can say yes, our performance at the match against Atalanta. But I really watch a lot of football games, and the Premier League is the best league in the world. The Premier League is not overrated, but its players are being overstated. Someone needs to help with this."

Klopp said, "Broadcasting companies should not squeeze their soccer workers, but be their partners. It's a small piece of advice from an old man who steps down. Sometimes people can live well even if there are no days when there are no games. Manchester City and Arsenal's drop in the Champions quarterfinals and our drop in the Europa League are not purely a result of our performance. It shows that we didn't show our performance on the day we had to show good performance."

Klopp is not the only one to comment on Premier League scheduling issues. The Bruyne also said last November that the most serious injury of his career was due to his busy football schedule. "I've already played more than 700 games. It's actually a comparison to a car that had to go to a maintenance shop for a big overhaul," The Bruyne once said in an interview.

Guardiola also complained about the schedule at a press conference after reaching the quarter-finals of the Champions League, saying, "Talk to the Premier League?

 They will say, 'Shut up because we're paying a lot of money!'"

Unlike other leagues, the Premier League is running out of players' physical strength due to Boxing Day on a cold winter day, and the league schedule is continuously delayed due to the FA Cup League Cup schedule. If the Premier League does not solve this problem, the PL's performance against Europe will not improve in the future.
