Liverpool are used to the challenge of catching Manchester City – Jurgen Klopp

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp claims  his side  are used to the challenge of trying to battle with Manchester City in the Premier League title race.

“It’s not mentally draining, we are used to that,” said Klopp.

“You asked us two years ago when we were quite a few points ahead you said, ‘Oh no, City can do ridiculous things.

“They can win the last 15 or whatever and the year before that when City was championed we both won the last 15 games pretty much.

“It’s the situation, we want to have that competition, it’s all fine, City is there to beat, but to do that you have to be perfect.

If you are not perfect yourselves you have to hope that City is not perfect and that’s pretty much like a passive role which I don’t like much.

“You can see already it is getting much more exciting for you (the media). Not for us but obviously for the outside world.

“We are here together at the training ground so we can put our focus to it, allow ourselves to stay positive, allow ourselves to look forward to the next football game, and deal with all the difficulties we face over a day, which is quite challenging.”
“We have now a couple of years when we could catch up with them when we were nearly there and then we were there, so for us, we understand how big that was.”
