Liverpool went into the stoppage caused by the Covid-19 pandemic with a 25-point lead and were forced to wait three months before wrapping up business.
“There’s a sense of relief because after the three-month interruption no one knew how the season would come back. This is for all of the fans. I hope they celebrate it, it’s all in our hearts and our heads, we do it all together and it’s a joy to do this for the fans,” Klopp said.


“The Manchester City game was really tense, I didn’t want to be involved,” he added.
“It was intense but it is an incredible from my players. What they have done over the last few years in exceptional and it’s a pure joy for me to coach them.”
Klopp joined Liverpool in 2015 after making his name in his homeland with Borussia Dortmund and took the club to the Champions League title last season.
