Klopp stays calm as Liverpool surge back into Premier League title race

The only thing is, Jurgen Klopp and keeping calm don't go well together.

They unleashed celebratory fist pump fury at Anfield after Liverpool beat Leeds 6–0 as they have now won six games in a row and are just three points behind Premier League leaders Man City as they beat City home. But making the most of losing. Tottenham over the weekend.

Liverpool face Man City at the Etihad in early April and many see that game as a straight fight for the Premier League trophy.

Klopp isn't so sure, and is trying his best to focus on whether his side is in a fight for the title.

Reds boss keep calm, for now...

Asked after the game if Liverpool were excited to join the race for the title, this was Klopp's response.

Klopp said with a smile, "I'm not excited, after a night it's normal like people get carried away and that's totally fine but Sunday is coming and we have to be 100 percent ready for it."

"We have 10 days without a league game and City is probably playing in that time for sure. It's like that. We have to win our football matches and we'll be around if we do that and if we don't If we do, there's no title race. But if we do, maybe."

Cue 'Klop Coy on title bid' made headlines across the UK.

Focus is key

Liverpool have been here before along with Manchester City.

This run-in seems similar to the end of the 2018–19 season, when City finished on 98 points and Liverpool on 97 as the title race went on to the final day of the Premier League season.

There is an almighty fight coming up at the Etihad and when you look at the run-ins for both Liverpool and Manchester City, it is pretty much the same.

Man City has to host Man United, so does Liverpool. Liverpool are to travel to Arsenal and host Tottenham and Everton. Man City will travel to Wolves, West Ham and Leeds who will all play for huge goals at the end of the season.

It's about to go down to the wire and it looks like Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp know it.

For now, Klopp is staying calm (about six fist pumps on Wednesday were enough for Koop) and he is fully focused on winning the League Cup final on Sunday as Liverpool face Chelsea at Wembley.

Then, the attention turns to the glory of the Premier League (and the Champions League). Liverpool have put themselves in a good position and have gained incredible momentum.
