Manager of the Reds says, "The gap is so insane, I don't really understand it." I have not had that before. It is outstanding, so difficult.
"I go back into the changing room and we chat about the things and then I am like 'Oh, but congratulations. We won the game, another three points," Jürgen Klopp told Sky Sports.
Liverpool have been champions of England 18 times, trailing only rivals Manchester United and are looking forward to winning this season's title, having placed second last season.
