Liverpool are probably out of the title race, but Klopp is more focused on winning the remaining games.
Liverpool look less and less likely to have a shot at winning the Premier League title after dropping points in a draw against West Ham United.
Jurgen Klopp described it as an “intense” period, with four games in 10 days.
“First half, dominating, good game. Not the highest intensity, happens quite frequently when you have these intense periods, you need to get the legs going. [We] created, were super-dominant but concede anyway, first goal from a corner. Not great”, he said about the first half of the game.
Despite recovering a goal in the second half, the final scoreline was 2-2, with two vital points dropped. This means that Liverpool are no longer contenders for the title, barring catastrophic losses by Arsenal and Manchester City.
“I don’t think about it really. So, I said before, we need to win our games. We didn’t win the game. That doesn’t improve our situation now massively”, said Klopp.
“Do they [Manchester City and Arsenal] look like they will lose two or three games? No, I don’t think so but, honestly, I’m not angry or whatever... I don’t think about it. It’s just we have to win football games and let’s see what that means in the end. What do we have now? 75 points? 84 [are] possible and I think it is a good target to try to do that”.
