After a hard-earned win versus Chelsea, Liverpool boss has refused to get too ahead and praised their main rivals City’s ruthlessness in the league.
When asked about his side’s spectacular run of form, Klopp told Sky Sports: “It’s exceptional but we have to keep on going, we don’t really think about it.
“We don’t have to try to make any series longer. We fight for each yard, for each ball. From time to time we score, that helps to win the games but it’s always really hard work for us.
“It’s completely normal that you come under pressure but we defended well. That’s how the Premier League is: if you don’t finish the game then it’s open until the end.
“It never looks as easy as for City yesterday – they did it brilliantly, it was unbelievable – we have not had these games yet so we have to really work for it. The boys are ready for that.”
“[It was] a really good performance, with passionate defending in the second half,” said Klopp of their result against Chelsea.
“It was a good game. Two good sides. We were in control in the first half and we scored two wonderful goals after set-pieces.
“We work on set pieces. All the things we do in training I love to see on the pitch.
“Big fight from everybody. You can never win at Chelsea without putting a proper shift in and we did that today so I’m really happy.”
