Jurgen Klopp is remaining positive about Liverpool’s Premier League title chances, despite losing top spot.
The Reds came up short away to Everton on Sunday, producing a flat performance in an eventual 0-0 draw.
It was the second goalless affair in a row on their travels, following a forgettable contest at Manchester United.
A number of recent draws mean Manchester City are now one point clear in the title battle, with some even accusing Liverpool of buckling under the pressure.
Klopp was in typically bullish mood when discussing the current situation to Liverpoolfc.com, however, saying his side will keep battling until the very end:
We are positive – how couldn’t we be positive?
There is a lot to come and a lot of games to play. What brought us here was the stability the boys showed.
We are difficult to beat, which is very important in football. And we created, still, in difficult games, which is very important in football.
Then you have to finish them off, which we did very often but not [at Everton].
The dynamic [at the top of the table] changed a little bit – now we are second, they are first.
The season is not over and we will not give up.
With nine matches remaining there is still plenty to play for, but Liverpool must improve the consistency of their form.
A win at home to Burnley on Sunday lunchtime is paramount, particularly as City are likely to be four points clear by the time the game kicks off, having hosted Watford on Saturday.
