Video taking off 10x its usual first day

Jurgen Klopp weighs in on the Man City verdict, and Sky Sports News' clip runs ten times past usual

The former Liverpool manager, whose closest title finish against City came a season after the charged years ended, has given the channel its second-busiest video of the case.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 484,279 views a day, 10 times a normal first day on this channel (46,287).

Jurgen Klopp responds to Man City being found guilty on all serious financial charges of PL rulesJurgen Klopp responds to Man City being found guilty on all serious financial charges of PL rules

"Jurgen Klopp responds to Man City being found guilty on all serious financial charges of PL rules" is a short reaction clip on Sky Sports News. It had passed 290,000 views ten hours after it went up, roughly ten times what a new upload on the channel usually draws in a full day.

The description gives only the bare facts. An independent commission found Manchester City guilty on all the serious charges brought under the Premier League's financial rules, and the club will appeal. The tags put the charges between the 2009/10 and 2017/18 seasons. That detail explains much of the argument below the video. Klopp's tightest finish against Pep Guardiola's City came in 2018-19, the season after that period ended, when Liverpool lost the title by a single point. A year later, Klopp's side won the league.

The comments mostly turn on one question: can what City did on the pitch be separated from the squad the money built? Some viewers read Klopp's answer as careful diplomacy. Others argue over which seasons should count.

On a crowded day for the channel, this clip is not the biggest. The report on Etihad Airways considering legal action against the Premier League, as we reported here, is still well ahead. Klopp's reaction, though, has moved past both Cristiano Ronaldo's exit from the Portugal camp and a barrister's view on City's chances of overturning the verdict.
