As the two sides go head to head for the title, the Reds manager has admitted that Pep Guardiola’s men are setting an incredible standard
Pep Guardiola’s side set a Premier League record by reaching 100 points last term, and will achieve a total of 98 this season if they win both of their remaining matches.
And Klopp could only marvel at that blistering pace, telling Goal and DAZN: “If City win all their games, then I can only congratulate them. It is quite simple. They will have had an amazing season, an incredible campaign.
“They had an unbelievable 2017-18 season and almost matched their points tally from that year. That’s absolute madness.
“You can only admire such consistency. I can’t say anything bad about that.
“We don’t want to win the league because City lose, but because we win. So if City win the league, they will have deserved it.”
