Liverpool boss Klopp on West Ham: I like Bowen a lot...

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says it's too soon to talk about the title race.

Chelsea are currently clear at the top of the table.

But Klopp says: "I'm not sure. We don't consider ourselves in that way - we want to be in it, but whatever role we have I don't care. With our quality we should be in and around the top of the table. We don't have to talk about quality of City and Chelsea.

"The league has so many strong teams. West Ham, Brighton, Arsenal are better, Man Utd are strong, Leicester...so there's no game at all you can go and rest. You have to be on top constantly. Best league in the world for sure. It's really exciting to be a part of."

Liverpool face West Ham this weekend and Klopp confirmed his admiration for Jarrod Bowen.

He added: "You watch them and it's fun. They are a high intensity team. They have top strikers. I like Bowen a lot, he made his way up from Hull and showed the PL what kind of player he is."
