Liverpool have become ‘too easy’ to play against, admits Jürgen Klopp

Jürgen Klopp salutes Liverpool’s travelling supporters following the team’s Europa League exit to Atalanta in Bergamo on Thursday.Jürgen Klopp salutes Liverpool’s travelling supporters following the team’s Europa League exit to Atalanta in Bergamo on Thursday.have become “too easy” to play against and must toughen up if they are to stand any chance of winning the Premier League title.

Klopp’s side travel to Fulham on Sunday in third, two points behind Manchester City and below Arsenal on goal difference, having drawn and lost their past two league fixtures, against Manchester United and Crystal Palace, respectively. On Thursday they also exited the Europa League at the quarter-final stageand, all in all, are performing poorly.

“There is no season where there were no moments I thought: ‘Ah, we should have won that, we should have done that.’ It is part of life that you have to deal with them,” said Klopp. “It is never about how many punches you get, it is always how you deal with them. That’s how we have to deal with the situation.“That’s the challenge in football because we never play just for ourselves, we always have an opponent.

“It’s good to have them but it is not about who wears the shirt, it is about how we perform,” he said. “We have to find a way to help the boys in the best way, to bring them as quick as possible into their best form or shape and from there we have to go. But of course each player plays with that quality anyway and without them we wouldn’t have a chance. With them we have a chance, with them in a really good football moment the chance gets bigger and bigger.

“I think if we would win all our games there is a good chance we will be champions. Maybe we only have to win five, but nobody knows. Who would have thought that? We have to go there still, it’s not one of my favourite away games. But it happens. We don’t think about that. It is just how can we make sure we start wining games again. I’m absolutely positive and after processing things properly, I’m more than happy with the situation.
