Jurgen Klopp keeps focused

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes his side won’t underestimate Sunderland after suffering a reality check against Southampton.

The Reds’ stalemate at St Mary’s, only the fourth time this season they have not won, saw them lose top spot after just one match as Premier League leaders.

Klopp felt that after scoring 10 in their previous two matches against Crystal Palace and Watford prior to the international break, there was a growing belief outside of their Melwood training ground bubble that his side would continue to fly through fixtures against the so-called lesser sides.
