Liverpool boss Klopp makes a claim about title challenge

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has admitted that Manchester City or Manchester United are the only clubs that can win the Premier League this season.

City seemed destined to win the top flight this season and after their 4-0 thrashing of Bournemouth this weekend, they now have a 14 point advantage over their nearest rivals. Meanwhile Chelsea are third, Liverpool fourth and Spurs fifth.

Following his team’s 3-3 draw with Arsenal on Friday, Klopp admitted that the Premier League title race for this season will be between the Manchester clubs.

He said: “We’re on our way and we have to keep the team together and improve and involve other players. That’s a job for the future

“This year I don’t think anybody except Manchester City and maybe United can think too much about how they can win the league.

“We have to qualify for the Champions League; have to finish as high as possible.It looks like we could be second, third or fourth and that will be a fantastic situation. Not the dream, but a fantastic situation, and that’s what we’re working on.”
