A difficult run of results 바카라 starting with a draw at Manchester United and followed by home defeats to Atalanta and Crystal Palace 바카라 ended with a 1-0 Europa League victory in Bergamo but that could not prevent their exit from the Europa League 3-1 on aggregate at the quarter-final stage.
A first clean sheet in 10 matches was a boost to confidence, especially as they continue to struggle to find their best form at the other end of the pitch, and Klopp thinks the two-point gap to leaders Manchester City can be overhauled with a perfect run in.
바카라It바카라s not obviously in our hands, it is not about that,바카라 said Klopp.
바카라I think if we would win all our games there is a good chance we will be champion. If not there is a good chance someone else will be champion.
바카라Maybe we only have to win five, but nobody knows. Who would have thought that Arsenal lose against Aston Villa?
바카라We all sit here and think 바카라OK, yeah. City will win all their games바카라 and that바카라s happened quite frequently, but they have a lot of games to play and difficult opponents as well.
바카라We don바카라t think about that. We don바카라t think about them. It is just how can we make sure we start wining games again.바카라
Over the course of their recent rivalry, Liverpool have had a couple of seasons where the race to the line with City has seen them miss out by just a point despite matching each other win-for-win for the majority of the run in.
But Klopp said that experience was not necessarily as positive as onlookers may believe.
바카라When we were in the position we didn바카라t win the league in the end. We lost by a point and stuff like that. What kind of experience is that?바카라 he added.
바카라We know how to get there 바카라 and then don바카라t (win). It바카라s not about that.
바카라It바카라s good to know that you are good and you can cause other teams problems.
바카라But the thing is clear: if you want to be champion in the Premier League you have to be close to perfect and if you are not perfect you have to deal with the setbacks in the best possible way or in a perfect way.
바카라That is what we are now doing. We had a setback week with three games we didn바카라t like too much, the results especially, and now we have to start turning it around.바카라
Key to turning things around will be a change in fortunes in front of goal.
Three goals in their last four matches has stalled their progress with the forwards failing to take numerous opportunities they have created.
Mohamed Salah, whom Klopp defended after he missed a key chance to make it 2-0 against Atalanta, has scored six 바카라 two of which were penalties 바카라 in 11 matches since returning from two months out with a hamstring injury.
Luis Diaz has two in eight games, Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo have just one in their last seven, while Diogo Jota has yet to find the net in three appearances since returning injury.
바카라We had good moments and had an awful lot of chances, and didn바카라t use one of them more of less,바카라 said Klopp.
바카라That바카라s not great but the worst thing in football is not to have chances. It is better you deal with chances you miss than you have no chances.
바카라That바카라s why I바카라m absolutely positive and after processing things properly, yeah, I바카라m more than happy with the situation.바카라
