Jurgen Klopp sends message to Liverpool squad ahead of Premier League title run-in

Jurgen Klopp has urged his Liverpool side to capitalise on their "wonderful base" as they target a first Premier League title.

The Reds sit top of the Premier League as they prepare to return to action against Tottenham on Sunday.

But they are just a point ahead of Manchester City , who have a game in hand, with Pep Guardiola's side looking to land back-to-back titles.

City are on for an unprecedented quadruple having already won the Carabao Cup, reaching the semi-finals of the FA Cup and the last eight of the Champions League.

Liverpool are also in the quarter-finals of Europe's premier club competition, and Klopp is ready for an exciting climax to the season.

Steve McManaman reveals key thing that will affect Liverpool v Tottenham  

“It is exciting, absolutely,” said Klopp. “That’s what we were always talking about – a season is like that, you constantly prepare a basis for the final weeks.

"We are now in the final weeks and there will be no interruption anymore, there will only be game after game after game and they all are very, very important.

“On the one side, opponents fight for the Champions League spots, and on the other they will fight (to stay in) the league.

“Champions League, we don’t have to talk about that because they are all finals, each game is a final. Hopefully we can stay in that competition for a while.

“We created a wonderful base, now let’s use it.”
