Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says Antonio Conte deserves to win the title with Chelsea.

Chelsea will be handed the top-flight trophy on Sunday when they take on Sunderland at Stamford Bridge.

He told The Times: "I love Antonio. What a fantastic guy.

"But I think even last year there was no doubt about the quality of Chelsea's players. They had a punch, and then they come back.

"Antonio has outstanding management skills. He understands the game, so he saw what to do.

"Antonio's really passionate and smart, and that's a good combination, one you don't have too often."
