Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp has said his team are where they want to be in terms of being close to Man City.
He said after Sunday’s 2-2 EPL ‘decider’ game that Man City were worth dragging the crest with.
He said before the game the result would be defining.
Klopp stuck by that assertion, even though he accepts it will be more difficult for his side with so few games remaining and no room for manoeuvre.
Asked if they now had to win their remaining seven matches, having been on a run of 10 consecutive league victories before this draw, the Reds boss said: “Yeah, I think that’s probably right.
“We knew it in January if we wanted to win we had to win 18 games, if there was one game we can draw it’s today.
“Now we have two massive games, Benfica (in the UEFA Champions League) and the FA Cup (semi-final) with Manchester City and then it really starts.
“We are where we want to be, close to an incredible side, and I said a couple of times if you don’t have luck in life you’re screwed.
“We need the right decisions, and we have to be as close to perfection to win seven Premier League games. Insane, but that’s the only way to beat this team —- even if that’s enough.
