Summary of Liverpool's 4: 5 victory on penalties over Leicester in the League Cup, after 3: 3 in 90 minutes (Sport 1)

In the shadow of the Corona strike that has sidelined dozens of players and led to the cancellation of games over the past week, the Premier League teams are on the verge of a very busy game week, which opens the next day (Sunday) with Boxing Day games, continues another round two days later and ends with another round of New Year's Eve.

After senior players and coaches in the Premier League, such as Jordan Henderson, Jürgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola, complained about the rush recently, today came the aggressive response from Simon Jordan, who previously headed Crystal Palace.

Jordan criticized the "whining" of English league players and coaches: "Enough of that already! Play the damn game. You get way too much. Most of the players I know really want to play these games. I do not understand what kind of people "We grow, but they are soft. I can not stand it anymore. Look at some character and deal."

The former Crystal Palace chairman went on to address the issue of congestion: “Football is based on a culture where people are constantly making excuses.

I agree there should be five exchanges, but it's their fault they did not vote for it, and even if there were five, they would ask for seven.

And when they are seven, they will ask for ten.

No matter what you give people, it's never enough.

How about saying 'you're doing a really good job'?

Maybe you will realize how lucky you are?

"If you were not in football, half of you would now be working at McDonald's."

As a reminder, Henderson claimed that no one in the Premier League attaches importance to the well-being of the players, while Guardiola advised the footballers to start a strike if they were not happy with the situation.
