J. Klopp: "Man City" wouldn't be so far ahead in a normal season © „PA pictures“

„Liverpool“ team coach Jurgen Klopp believes that injuries that sidelined his team prevent them from seriously challenging the "Man City" club in the Premier League. Currently, recovering from injuries are Virgil Van Dijk, Joe Gomez, Joel Matip, while previously, players like Diogo Jota, Thiago Alcantara, Naby Keita, Fabinho, Jordan Henderson, Alisson, and Trent Alexander-Arnold had to take some time off. "We all agree, I think even the 'city' coach Josep Guardiola would agree, that in a normal season, both teams shouldn't have a 16-point gap between them. But it is what it is, we have to accept it. Right now we don't have the goal of catching up to 'Man City' - we just want to climb as high as possible in the Premier League table. We have enough work to do," clarified J. Klopp. Currently, the "Reds" are only in seventh place in the English championship.
