Jurgen Klopp provides stern response when asked if Liverpool can challenge for the title

Regardless of the fact that Chelsea are far from last season’s best, Liverpool’s 3-1 victory at Stamford Bridge was still impressive.

After beginning with three draws, victory over the Premier League champions was Liverpool’s second win in a week following the win over Bournemouth in the League Cup.

While it might appear that Klopp’s new side have turned a corner, the German is certainly not getting carried away.

When the former Borussia Dortmund boss was asked whether the result showed that Liverpool were capable of mounting a title challenge, Klopp instantly poured cold water over such a suggestion.

“Are you crazy? You think after one win at Chelsea we should think about this?”

“I’ve been here three weeks, round about. We don’t think about this. We have to think about the next game, about improving our game and our style. We can do much better than today.”
