Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp isn't getting carried away after victory over Newcastle United.

The Reds have been installed as the new title favourites after they comfortably beat Newcastle 4-0 and Manchester City lost for successive matches, going down 2-1 at Leicester City.

Now six points clear at the top of the table, Klopp said: "That means nothing. We play Arsenal and City. I had no idea how any other teams were playing, I didn't even know where they were playing.

"Afterwards I got the results and I can say it didn't do a lot for me. It is just information. It's good that we have six points than other teams, or seven, but that is pretty much all."

Klopp added: "We want to create our own history. It is the first Liverpool team in the Premier League unbeaten (at the halfway stage of the season).

"All good numbers but there are 19 games to go. So we play Arsenal, we play City, we play Tottenham. We play all of them again. There is a long way to go, we all know that.

"We have to win our games we have to be focused, we have to be really in the mood and have tunnel vision and see where it leads us to."
