''We are hungry.
“We don’t think about the gap, not for a second. What we think about is 54 points – unbelievable, to be honest. That’s really strange and feels strange.
“All we can do is keep going; recover first of all, that’s very important, and then prepare the next game.
“We all know, wow, Man City are a fantastic football team and an away game at City – who can go there and think ‘Probably we will win’? No team in the world, not even us.
“So we have to go there and try everything to get a result. That’s what we will try,'' Klopp told the club's website.
