Liverpool’s title push goes from strength to strength

Asked about Citys 3-1 victory over Everton on Saturday lunchtime, Klopp said: “We ignored it completely. I didn’t mention it one time.“We know the table, just are you focused on it or not. We played against Man United and not Man United and City.“When we eat and train together we are not saying, ‘Did you see what City did?’.“We are focused on what we need to do and will there come a moment in the season where we are still around them and we start hoping they drop points or whatever.3
