Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has said that finishing in the top four is his team’s “main objective” this season.
Klopp said this after Manchester City beat Liverpool 4-1 in the Premier League on Sunday night at Anfield.
Goals from Ikay Gundogan (2), Raheem Sterling and Phil Foden ensured Manchester City defeated Liverpool, as Mohamed Salah’s penalty was not enough to give the host a point.
The result against Man City means Liverpool are stock on fourth position on the Premier League table, ten points behind Pep Guardiola’s side who have a game in hand.
Klopp is now focused on securing a top four spot, and trying to win the Champions League.
“That [top four] is our main target, that is clear,” Klopp told Sky Sports.
“We will try everything there is enough games to play to secure that but we have to win games.”
Liverpool’s next fixture is against Leicester City next weekend at the King Power Stadium
