Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp, has said Chelsea must be “annoyed” by his side keeping up pace with them in the Premier League title race.
Chelsea extended their winning run to 13 matches on Saturday afternoonz, before the Reds claimed a 1-0 win over Manchester City at Anfield later in the day.
The win means Liverpool are still six points behind leaders Chelsea, while City are now 10 points adrift.
“How I said before, we cannot look at Chelsea,” Klopp told a news conference after City game on Saturday night.
“They are obviously unbelievably strong of course. They are in an outstanding run. They are in a 13-game run – not bad.
“But can you imagine how annoying it is when you win 13 games in a row and [we] are only six points behind?
“I’m pretty sure they don’t think about this, so why should we? It is completely not important what happens in this moment, apart from that we win games. That’s the only thing we are really interested in.
“It’s so difficult in this league, it’s unbelievably difficult. The next game is already waiting against Sunderland and they fight for their lives. That’s the situation.
“We got the three points and I really thought we deserved and that’s the only things that are really important”, he added.
