'I cannot sit here': Jurgen Klopp has just made a claim about Arsenal and Man City after this week's results

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has been discussing both Arsenal and Manchester City ahead of this weekend’s clash with West Ham.

The Reds boss has seen his team fall away from the title race after defeats against both Crystal Palace and then Everton have cost him and his side dear.

This weekend, Klopp must get his side up for the clash with the Hammers.

Liverpool must win their games and hope both City and Arsenal slip up to have any hope of being back in the race for the title.

Of course, it’s a long shot, given the form both Mikel Arteta and Pep Guardiola’s sides are in.

Jurgen Klopp comments on Arsenal and Manchester City after Everton loss

Discussing the title race, Klopp admitted that things look bleak for his team and even Arsenal and City must feel they’ve gone out in front as well.

“I cannot sit here and say [Manchester City and Arsenal] still feel us around. I think even Arsenal and City see it as a two-horse race. We might have to say something else publicly, but they don’t expect for themselves to lose two games from now on, I don’t think so,” Klopp said.

“I don’t expect them to do that. If they do it, then we would be completely silly if we were not around. So, I don’t think it will happen but if it happens, then we should be there. That means we have to win our games – starting with West Ham.”

Liverpool are done this year

Klopp says it here in a way, but Liverpool essentially need a miracle to get back into the title race.

There is a realistic chance that Arsenal slip up in the North London Derby but when it comes to City, there just seems to be no game where they’re going to get it wrong.

Right now, the title is City’s to throw away and it’s hard to see anything other than Pep’s side winning out again.

Sadly for Liverpool and Klopp, it means a bit of a damp squib type ending after a season that had, at one point, looked on course to be a memorable one.
