Even though Liverpool were defeated by Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend, manager Jurgen Klopp has issued a rallying cry to his players, urging them not to concede the Premier League crown to Manchester City despite conceding points to them at the weekend.

Liverpool's 1-1 draw at home to Antonio Conte's men at Anfield gave Pep Guardiola's side a big boost in their quest to capture their fourth Premier League title in five years under Guardiola. Klopp's side will approach the title campaign in the same way that they approached it in the previous season, when they were beaten by Manchester City by a single point after a thrilling title struggle.

Although they have previously failed, the German has urged his players not to lose hope as they attempt an unprecedented quadruple. "To be honest, I'm not sure I even mentioned it wasn't over to my players because I believe that's apparent and I don't often say obvious things," Klopp admitted.

"It is crystal clear. We both have three games still to play, and we don't collect the points until after they have been played, and I'm pretty sure City isn't doing the same. Why should we cease believing in them as long as they are within our grasp? "And that's exactly what we do." As a rule, dressing rooms take care of themselves, but just to be safe, I'll let them know nevertheless." Even if they suffered a setback in their title defense against Tottenham on Saturday, the German hasn't wavered in his support for Klopp.
When asked if he would inform his players that his demands were correct, he said he had no qualms that they were doing the right thing. "That is my point of view. That was my interpretation of the game. As a result, we continue "Klopp went on to say more.

"That is something we must believe. Right now, we must put the good things to use and erase the bad things in order to go forward." The Reds will be up against Aston Villa, Southampton, and Wolves as they compete for the Premier League title.
