Jurgen Klopp responds to Pep Guardiola claim that Liverpool have 'already' won Premier League

Earlier this month, after Pep Guardiola's side lost to Norwich City, the Citizens coach joked by saying "congratulations Liverpool, you are the champions." Days later, ahead of Chelsea game, Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp has responded to Guardiola's claim. “It hasn’t been won already," said Klopp. “Pep knows that – and that is why I understand, 100 per cent, why he made a joke about it. “This season won’t be like last season. We have seen that already, with every team making big steps. “There is not team in the league who I think will go down with hardly any points. You’ve got Watford who were at the bottom with two points but, ­performance-wise, they could ­already have had five, six or seven points. “Wolves are also struggling a bit – but will end up going back up – so we have ­already seen that the league is different this season. "I think that’s why Pep ­responded like he did with a joke because ­nothing has happened so far.We’ve had just five games and so many things can still happen. You simply cannot think that far ahead. “We have enough to do just ­thinking about the next game, then the next game and the next game.” Liverpool will play against Chelsea today, September 22, while Manchester City played against Watford yesterday and won with 8-0 score. via Mirror
