Exclusive interview with Jurgen Klopp: Liverpool’s manager discusses their chances of winning the title.
Jurgen Klopp, the esteemed manager of Liverpool, recently sat down for an exclusive interview with TNT Sports. In the interview, he expressed his determination to not give up on winning the Premier League title in his final season with the club. Despite suffering a devastating 2-0 loss to Everton at Goodison Park, Klopp remains optimistic about Liverpool’s chances in the title race.
Currently, Liverpool trails league leaders Arsenal by three points with only four matches left to play. They are also just two points behind Manchester City, although City has a game in hand. Klopp acknowledged the challenging situation but emphasized that he does not consider it a problem.
In his interview with TNT Sports, Klopp stated, “Do I believe in this moment we will be champions? No, because that’s the table and the situation doesn’t give that. But is that a problem? I don’t think so. It’s not about the game after the next game, it’s about the next game. Let’s see what happens.”
Klopp highlighted the unpredictability of football, pointing out that it is possible for Arsenal and City to lose two games while Liverpool wins all four of their remaining matches. He reminded everyone that Liverpool has achieved such a feat before and therefore, he refuses to write off their chances.
Liverpool’s upcoming fixtures include matches against West Ham, Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, and Wolves. Klopp stressed that their focus is solely on winning these games and making the most of his final stretch as Reds boss.
While Klopp will be leaving Liverpool at the end of the season, there is speculation that Feyenoord boss Arne Slot could be his successor. Klopp expressed his approval of Slot, stating, “I like the positivity around it, what people tell me – if he would be the next manager, they would be happy. Very good style as well.”
Klopp believes that Liverpool is a sensational club deserving of a manager who brings energy, knowledge, and plays attractive football. He expressed his excitement about following the club’s progress in the coming years and even joked that he would be around to witness the celebratory parade if Liverpool were to win the league next year.
In conclusion, Klopp remains hopeful and determined despite the challenges Liverpool faces in the title race. He believes in the team’s ability to win their remaining matches and is confident that the club will be in good hands with his potential successor.
