Carragher backing Liverpool boss Klopp to use season for next term preparation

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher can see manager Jurgen Klopp using the remaining games of the season to prepare for next term.

The Reds will need just two more wins to secure the title when the English top-flight resumes on June 17 following a hiatus necessitated by the spread of coronavirus.

“Listen, Liverpool have won the league," he told Sky Sports. “Gary (Neville) just joked before about Liverpool losing every game; I honestly think Liverpool would still win the league as Manchester City would have to win all theirs.

"Jordan Henderson has come out plenty of times in interviews to say 'it's not won yet, it's not won yet.'

“Players know they can't say it publicly because there's nothing worse than just saying it and coming across as confident and cocksure. You never take anything for granted.

“The position Liverpool are in, it's just what game it happens in. I think the Liverpool players now, it's just get it won as quickly as possible."
