Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says he is happy for fans to start believing the Reds will win the Premier League this season but insists his focus remains on taking each game as it comes.
Klopp’s side beat Manchester United 2-0 on Sunday to go 16 points clear at the top of the table with a game in hand.
After the final whistle Liverpool fans sang “we’re going to win the league” as the Reds close in on a first league title in 30 years.
“I am not here to dictate what they sing. If our fans were not in a good mood now that would be really strange.
“Of course they are allowed to dream and sing whatever they want and, as long as they do their job in the moment we play, all fine. But we will not be part of that party yet.”
Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah scored the goals as Liverpool recorded a 13th consecutive win in the league.
They have now taken an incredible 64 points out of the 66 available this season, having only dropped points when they drew at Manchester United in October.
“We are here to work,” added Klopp. “It is as simple as that. It is a very positive atmosphere but I have to stay concentrated.
“We play on Thursday against Wolves. I am only interested in that game and nothing else.”-BBC
