Jurgen Klopp refuses to think about Champions League final

Some key players have looked leggy in recent games and it is to be hoped that is the effect of playing twice a week for several weeks, rather than a long season having finally caught up with them.

The Egyptian has had a stellar season with Liverpool after signing from Roma last summer.

“I think we go in with every confidence and belief that we can get the job done”.

Salah feels that once the match against Brighton is over, Liverpool will turn their attention to preparing for the Champions League final. New boys Brighton ensured a Premier League safety following a stunning 1-0 victory over runners-up Manchester United on Friday night and will be eyeing to cause yet another upset to ruin Liverpool’s Premier League campaign on Sunday afternoon.

“It’s a big one, there were plenty of moments to be proud of being a supporter of the club and on Sunday we have to deliver again, all of us”, Klopp added.

MOHAMED SALAH, telling the Liverpool Echo he is aiming for another good season.

“He deserved all the awards he got but I’m not in the mood to praise anybody for the last few months, I’m in the mood to think about Sunday”, Klopp said.

Another crucial final day awaits the Reds who take to Anfield for the last time this season needing just a point against Brighton to secure Champions League qualification. This is my first year here and it is the same for some other players.

“I can understand him saying that and that of course makes it even more hard for us”.

“I wouldn’t say on current form we’re going into the game as underdogs”. That they didn’t, despite winning another title and finishing second in the next two seasons, signalled a changing era in the game. The manager seems to believe that this game is a final of sorts and will want his team to play likewise. Jurgen Klopp’s team will finish at least 25 points behind champions Manchester City, who beat Albion 3-1 at the Etihad on Wednesday. The Reds faced Middlesbrough on the final day past year in a very similar position and ended 3-0 victors.

Only once the season ends will Klopp and his squad pack their bags for a light training camp in Spain where the focus will finally be on Cristiano Ronaldo and Co. I think the only difference is that we’ve embarked on a season where Man City have been that good. “I am fine with it so far, but of course we have to make the last two steps”.

He is on the verge of claiming his first Premier League golden boots with 31 goals and 9 assists this season with one more game still remaining.
