Jurgen Klopp responded by leaving Manchester City four points behind second-placed Liverpool and six behind leaders Arsenal.
Jurgen Klopp said Manchester City’s refusal to win the title would be “the biggest joke in the history of football” after losing 1-0 to Aston Villa.
Pep Guardiola’s side fell to fourth on Wednesday night as Leon Bailey’s strike saw Villa overtake the Premier League champions.
Meanwhile, Arsenal won 4-3 against Luton Town while Liverpool won 2-0 against Sheffield United to move ahead of City by 6 points and 4 points respectively.
Earlier this week, Guardiola announced that City will be crowned champions in May. But Klopp was reluctant to make such a prediction when asked about missing out on the title twice by a point by the Reds manager.
“I don’t think so (laughs). If we’re going to win, I hope we don’t lose!” Asked if this season’s title race could go into the final day, he replied: “I have no idea. We will see.
Jurgen Klopp mentioned Liverpool’s match with Sheffield United.”If they lose and someone blames City, it will be the biggest joke in the history of football. It really doesn’t make sense.
“Arsenal are clearly struggling and I had a similar experience a few days ago. The next game you will have to play from the beginning again. It’s 0-0, not 4-3. „Aston Villa.
They may not be playing real football yet, and I’m not sure who would want the media or any proof, but they have insane scores. I’m nearby. “Chelsea, I’m not sure if they’re coming yet.
But you have to play them anyway, so who cares where they are? We have to play against them and they are incredibly strong and the competition is incredibly strong.
“It takes luck to get through tough times, especially injuries. So I don’t know how this will end.“Maybe (there will be many opponents). It’s always two people, right? may be.
Honestly, I don’t care.“As long as we’re there, I’m good. The upcoming game is also very challenging and intense. Let’s fix this and ask again in April.
