Jurgen Klopp says he doesn't recognise Pep Guardiola's assessment that everyone in the country wants Liverpool to win the Premier League title ahead of Manchester City, suggesting that the Blues manager may regret his comments.
Guardiola made the headline-grabbing comments after City moved three points ahead of Liverpool with three games left, 24 hours after Klopp had criticised Tottenham's playing style in their 1-1 draw at Anfield. Guardiola had said: "Everyone in this country supports Liverpool, the media and everyone. Of course because Liverpool has an incredible history in European competition.
"Not in the Premier League, because they have won one in 30 years, but it is not a problem at all. Liverpool are alongside (Manchester) United as the most important team in terms of titles, legacy, history, dramas for many, many things. But we have since the last 11 or 12 years been there. I know sometimes we are uncomfortable, but I don't care if the people want Liverpool to win more than us. It is not an issue."
