Manchester City Still 'Best Team in Europe' for Liverpool Manager Juergen Klopp
News 18Manchester City remain the benchmark for Liverpool to catch, according to manager Jurgen Klopp as the two dominant forces in English football of recent years prepare to do battle at Anfield on Sunday. But Klopp believes City remain the team to beat as they showed in a 1-0 win at Chelsea last weekend which was more convincing than the scoreline suggests. “They are still really, for me, probably the best team in Europe in the moment and it’s a tough one,” said Klopp on Friday. “Last weekend, they played Chelsea and everybody was talking about Chelsea, how good they are — and they are good, oh my God, they are really good — but City was clear, clear better that day.” City boss Pep Guardiola said on Friday his personal duels with Klopp have made him a better manager.
