Jurgen Klopp claims that there will be a "plot twist" in the championship battles against City and Arsenal. Roy Keane mocked the brother after the interview: "He probably drank a few glasses of wine, no doubt" Liverpool salvaged a point in a 2-2 draw against Manchester United.

Liverpool have been in tight and tough title races on a number of occasions under Klopp, most notably in 2022, when both City and Liverpool went five months without a loss, before Guardiola's side won the title by just one point.
