Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp used some naughty language while reminding supporters to remain safe and at home as they celebrate the club's first top-flight title in 30 years.
The Reds clinched the 2019-20 Premier League crown nearly one month ago but only received the trophy following Wednesday's thrilling 5-3 victory over Chelsea at Anfield.
Klopp offered hopeful thoughts for a future massive gathering when speaking to Liverpool supporters through Sky Sports after the match (warning: video contains NSFW language):
"Drink what you want, you have to prepare for a party when this b******t virus is gone"

Klopp said:
"We should all celebrate together at home. Sing, drink what you want. But you have to prepare for a party. I don't know when, when this bulls---t virus is gone, then we will have a party all together. Make sure you are ready then. Thank you very much."
The previous day, Klopp, who guided Liverpool to the 2019 Champions League title, pleaded with supporters to keep away from Anfield for Wednesday's celebrations to avoid potentially spreading the coronavirus among their own.
