Jurgen Klopp has been blunt about Liverpool's hopes of winning the Premier League title after drawing 2-2 with West Ham United.
The Reds have been in the Premier League's best team for much of the 2023/24 season, but the recent dip in form has left Liverpool behind Arsenal and Manchester City.
A 2-2 draw with West Ham at the London Stadium means Jurgen Klopp's side have claimed just one win in their last five league matches. This, combined with Arsenal's 3-2 win over Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday and Manchester City's 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest, means Liverpool are five points behind league leaders Arsenal in the final three weeks of the season.
Speaking to the media after Saturday's game, Jurgen Klopp honestly assessed his team's chances of winning the title, admitting that he did not think Arsenal and Manchester City would drop enough points to give the team hope of winning the Premier League:
"I really didn't think about it. So, as I said before, we need to win the game. We didn't win the game. That doesn't make much of a difference to where we are now. ”。
'Does it look like they're going to lose two or three games? No, I don't think so, but honestly, I'm not angry or whatever...... I didn't think about it. It's just that we have to win the football game, let's see what that means in the end. ”。
"What do we have now? 75 points? 84 points are possible, and I think that's a good goal. It's going to be my attitude and mindset and we'll see what that means. I think a long time ago someone became the champion with a score of 84. I'm sorry, but I don't have better news for you. ”
